THIS IS WHY’ EUROPE HAS NO ROOTS “JUDEO-CHRISTIAN” BUT ONLY CHRISTIAN ROOTS AND TRADITION
Of Adriano Scianca
Israel? It is the "bulwark of the West". How many times have we read it, even these days, especially on the right, even among the visitors of this site. They are therefore defending “the West”, Israeli soldiers shooting at Palestinians? E, above all, they are defending us too? It's important to ask yourself this, because if the Jewish State has always divided public opinion on the basis of often pre-political criteria and if the objections raised against it are often of a moral nature, then they exist, more coldly, of the political categories that should be drawn upon to bring the issue back to less slippery terrain.
Ora, that Europeans use the category of the West to define themselves is in itself rather paradoxical if one only considers that the very concept of the West was explicitly created in an anti-European key.

It was President Thomas Jefferson who stated that America represents a "separate hemisphere", evoking a meridian - more moral than geographical - to separate the land where "the lamb and the lion will live in peace with each other" from corrupt Europe and its vices. In reality he was merely repeating Washington's teachings, that in 1793 he had already declared: “I am sure that the will of the United States is to have nothing to do with the intrigues and political disputes of the European nations”. President Monroe expressed the same concept when enunciating his famous theory aimed at excluding any European intervention in the New Continent (essentially “America for the Americans”). In fact, the meridian evoked by Jefferson was supposed to separate Good and Evil, the kingdom of equality and freedom from the land of hierarchy and oppression. Ora, mind you America believed it could embody this rejection of Europe by electing itself the Promised Land, that is, the New Israel based on membership (OR BETTER, AMERICANIST INTERPRETATION OF THE BIBLICAL STATEMENT, N.D.R.) as stringent as possible with the biblical dictate.
