The wave of indignation that emerged after Giulia Cecchettin’s femicide also highlights an unacceptable double standard within a certain feminism. “I am deeply outraged at not having heard a clear word of condemnation in Italy against the barbarity committed against Israeli women on October 7th.” Mara Carfagna, president of Azione, said this to Tagadà on La7, who added: “It is sad to note, and I say this on the eve of the International Day against Violence against Women, how the world of Italian feminism has not said a word about this, while the world of French feminism has called for the rapes and atrocities committed against Israeli women, girls and elderly people on October 7 to be considered mass rapes and femicides.”
Instead, “in Italy this didn’t happen, but there are frightening and frightening images of women raped, killed, burned. Why hasn’t a word been said about these women? Why are they Israelis? Why are they Jews?”, said the ‘former minister. “I therefore ask – concluded Carfagna in the Friday, November 24th episode of the program presented by Tiziana Panella – that the world of Italian feminism also say a clear word, because there are no first-class rapes and second-class rapes.”
