THE MASSACRE IN TUNIS
We, besieged and too timid
Destabilize all the political-state in the Arab world; get hold of that immense geopolitical space power establishing therein an inspired radical Islamism; from there move to a confrontation with the West, preliminarily put on the defensive and frightened by the action of nuclei terrorist recruited in Muslim communities in the interior. Really you run too much with the imagination by assigning a drawing like the galaxy of jihad that on Wednesday in Tunis has made his umpteenth bloody enterprise? Really means giving body in ghosts? You have to see: who would have said in January 1933 that the guy frantic newly appointed chancellor of Germany would have actually tried to realize his great intentions of extermination, putting to the sword the world? Yet the outbreak of the Second World War there were even seven years.
The message that comes from Tunis is clear: for our Continent approaching a decisive test. Syria, Libya, Tunisia, namely the southern Mediterranean, namely the maritime border of the Union. How not to notice that before the United States is to her, to us, that is facing the challenge Islamist? So the unexpected acceleration of history in Europe today require that to which it has so far always refused: to be a real political entity. Ie with a real foreign policy; with a real army.And with real political leaders: the only ones in the crucial moments can make courageous choices, building around them also the necessary consensus.

There is no time to lose. To cope with the fierce determination of radical Islam, to its ability to penetrate, the policy must first prepare for the use of force.The call it what you want not to disturb our modesty lexical - international police operation, peacekeeping mission (sic!) Or whatever - the important thing is to understand each other on the substance. Just as it is necessary for Europe to be convinced - and convince the United States - to say clearly Saudi Arabia, Qatar and some other Gulf monarchy that their double game can not go on: that they can not with a lavish hand do business with the West, and with the other finance those who kill in cold blood of its citizens. Islam antijihadista however exists: we need is help with more determination not to become hostages of terror (in the case of Tunisia) and get used to ask for their valuable help that can offer us.
