'Engagement - way forward, even with fundamentalists' says LI
President
Liberal International President, Lord Alderdice, delivering a major
public lecture at the Institute of Psychoanalysis in London on Friday
gave backing to the policy of engagement of US President Barack
Obama. 'There has been a good deal of confusion about how to
understand and deal with the rise of fundamentalism, radicalization
and terrorism.' said Lord Alderdice. 'These are separate though
connected and overlapping phenomena. We need to appreciate the
differences as well as the connections. Most fundamentalists do not
support violence, and many radicals do not have a religious
motivation. As we have explored these overlapping questions with an
open mind we find increasing evidence that it is possible to engage
with some fundamentalists. Some of them are genuinely open to
addressing problems. The moves in Hamas and Hizbollah to accepting
democratic politics should be encouraged not dismissed, and even the
recent events in Iran show that amongst the people there is a powerful
move towards freedom of thought. This is a real encouragement to the
more open attitudes in the West towards engagement, which is the right
way forward.'

Come potete vedere, l'abisso tra Internazionale Liberale e Likud non
lo ha creato la politica economica.
Tra parentesi, vi invito a studiare l'articolo più recente (a detta
del motore di ricerca del sito), pubblicato nella newsletter #123, in
cui appare il nome Netanyahu:

Israel’s elections result in political deadlock
Following Tuesday's general election, Israel's two largest parties
finished neck and neck, prompting a political gridlock, which could
take weeks to unravel in the form a new coalition. Current Foreign
Minister Tzipi Livni's Kadima party secured 28 seats in the 120-member
parliament, one more than former Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's
Likud Party. The Yisrael Beiteinu party (Israel Our Home), with
Avigdor Lieberman at its helm, was headed for third place and a likely
16 Knesset seats. Analysts believe that Mr. Netanyahu has a better
chance of assembling a governing coalition than Mrs. Livni because of
gains by other right-wing parties - a view supported by Mr. Moshe
Nissim, former Deputy Minister of Israel and a member of the Israeli
Liberal Group, LI full member. “My forecast is that [Mr. Netanyahu]
will face serious difficulties [...], mainly in security and foreign
affairs issues. A Government will be formed only with a right wing
ideology and will not give Netanyahu a free hand to negotiate with the
Palestinian Authority.” In the case of political deadlock, “the
parties will be forced to [...] form a unity government despite their
differing opinions [...].

Come vedete, è molto vecchio, l'Internazionale Liberale ha i suoi
rappresentanti in Israele, ma non sono il Likud, ed il discorso di
domenica scorsa non è bastato a convincere l'Internazionale Liberale
ad interessarsi di Netanyahu.
In compenso, il webmaster del sito ha commemorato a tempo di record la
morte di Ralf Dahrendorf, gigante del liberalismo contemporaneo, e
nella stessa newsletter #140 in cui trovate le dichiarazioni di Lord
Alderdice trovate anche un articolo sulle elezioni amministrative
marocchine, in cui due partiti iscritti all'Internazionale Liberale
hanno ottenuto in tutto il 13% dei voti, e ne sono contenti.
Una notizia molto più importante del discorso di Netanyahu e delle
possibilità che aprirebbe alla pace.
Ciao.
