After the terroristic attacks in Paris, the fist feelings of everybody have been fear and shock.
It is impressive to see a bar where died bodies lie near the tables of the terrace. It is so easy to imagine yourself there. It is automatic to think that it could happen in the bar behind the corner of your street, where maybe you are used to drink a cappuccino on Sunday morning.
The feelings of these days couldn't be different. It was the same after 9/11 and after the attacks in Madrid and London. People died in those attacks have their story and their face, so close to our story and to our face.
What is intolerable is the reactions we have seen from media and from politics in the last week.
From one side, media pointed out the aggression to France without considering almost at all what happened few days before in Beirut (40 people died and more than 200 injured). They didn't put the same rhetoric when the attack at the Russian airplane caused 224 dead persons.
From politics, rhetoric is combined with a blind decisionism. From one hand we have heard embarrassing comments about immigrants and refugees. From the other, we have assisted to worthless reactions, like many raid in Syria that for sure have caused many other dead.
Media and politics put always our society at the centre of the World. They don't try to understand, they just want to emphasize the situations in order to have more readers or followers and more electors.
The only products is fear. And fear generates hate. Will it be a war between hates?
We can just hope that this massacre in Paris will open our eyes on the reality. Even if fear seems leading us towards the opposite direction.
