Islam equals terrorism is the adage proposed to public opinion for the third millennium, works well, costs little, fills the newspapers (we are just writing it) and provides us with an enemy, which is then the most effective instrument for ensuring cohesion social status of sovereign states, but will it really be that simple?

The writer believes that things with the ax will never be cut and this imperative applies to both the courtly concepts and the heads of the adversaries, this said we need to understand what role Islam can play in defining global imbalances and it is precisely in this last sentence the first of the three questions.

Excess marketism leads any commentator, political scientist, analyst or simple observer to seek global recipes, as well as being impossible it is now clear to everyone that it is becoming dangerous, from the price of oil to illicit trafficking of works of art globalization is showing to be able to put in the field always the worst, marginalizing essential things such as beauty, values, thinking and making essential superfluous, in all this also the Islamic world in its negative sense must be global, so you must build according to the commonly accepted models and above all must appear everywhere.

Of course the dichotomy between Islam and terror works well, however, looking at the map of world crises wherever there is a war, at least one of the contenders belongs to the wide world of the Umma, but even in this case it is necessary to make some clarifications, they do not concern alleged differences between moderate and radical Islam are based on hypothetical just conflicts, but start from our values ​​in search of what is or could be shared in the Muslim world as opposed to what must certainly be fought. And so we conclude our reasoning with the simple - we are so well - an intimate friend of the Italian stellone, a reality of indifference and hypocrisy in which the Mediterranean becomes mare nostrum if there is to promote the Renzi and Farinetti Expo, but not it is read as a middle sea when there is to protect the Sicilian navies hostage to pirates.

Africa is seen as the land where that mad planting tents of Gaddafi comes from when he governs a certain political party and then turns into a dramatic reality to provide aid at all costs when the tragedy of the fake Arab springs is consumed in the meantime other wretched 700s drown, the fishing boats are assaulted and Europe gets fucked, but as we said: we're fine!
