Tariq Ramadan continues to provoke controversy and debate. Finally, Paul Bermann (TheNew Republic) and Ian Buruma pigeonholed into the category of the cultured people with whom you communicate well. Bermann says, inter alia, that "dialogue with someone does not mean lying at his feet" and did a flawless Buruma argues, "if you compare yourself only with today's laity, do not you compare yourself with anyone." Well, starting from these two statements, let's move on, accepting the invitation of the two experts. It is true as Buruma says that the biggest mistake of the West, especially Europe, is to continue to not take into account that the banners of secularism - in almost all latitudes - no more flutters, because of the sirocco wind that comes from 'Islam, but not all. Pierre Chiartano in his "Defending the West '(Ed. Liberal - foreword by Renzo Foa) explains, in nearly 300 pages, like the pendulum of history has turned again, as was the time of the Peace of Westphalia - in the opposite direction. It is an anthropological problem of man's vision that clashes with reality. "In the West, as in the East is the transcendent dimension of human identity that has taken over the reins, pulling a new culture that has its own language." To try to dialogue with Islam by using the old secular grammar, reading the man-dimensional (only reason) is the biggest mistake the West can not afford to do. That said, however, the risk of making an omelet, stirring the pot too fast, it's real. The secular culture - Buruma does not belong to you, because for years he had perceived the importance of the "dust of God" - might be overcome with guilt and open, so the new dialogue, but with the wrong partners. The writer has had the opportunity to listen and watch live Tariq Ramadan. The effect of ambiguity that had caused the reading of his writings was, if possible, increased. Below is a track that you can read in full at (http://difesadelloccidente.blogspot.com/2007/05/la-sala-rossa-della-fiera-del-libro-di.html). The intervention of Ramadan occurs after another speaker described the men 'blacks' MI-6 (British counterintelligence) in their ambiguous relationship with Islamic terrorism.
"Look after this psychological preparation of the audience, he materializes, Tariq Ramadan. Just got out of the lineup of an Alitalia flight, landed late, does not fail to underline our. Then part of the indictment in a form very clever, because it enters the pragmatic dimension of the analysis. First dimension: the relationship between policy and intelligence and between this and terrorist groups. The second relates to religion and its ability to build an individual identity and public life. Here the message is for the European political institutions. The third dimension concerns the search for a synthesis to find solutions concrete. Point on which it is difficult to disagree. Where Ramadan touches emotional chords of many calls and when the values \u200b\u200bof democracy. "Democracy is also a responsibility, it is not always right," applause "out of hand," as they say. Too bad that so fervently democratic, and so true intellectual passion - to be recognized - is serving a message that define ambiguous is an understatement. It is the duo-Ahmed Ramadan create perplexity. Feelings of guilt are triggered by the first introduction of the doubt that democracy is ill as a political mechanism that is inoculated from the second. When the West begin to understand that its survival is at stake? ".
The theme - we were at the Turin Book Fair last May - was linked to the borders, then the 'sappers' could be the protagonists of that cultural event very interesting. Pierluigi Battista, the Courier today, speaks of "Dear paradigm" and presents shared reason for caution in dialogue with certain "sappers." Calls to "flush out" the elusive and ungraspable Ramadan. The problem is that, from every angle you look at it, the approach of Ramadan, the dialogue is one-way: they are open to dialogue with Europe that, sooner or later, will be dominated by Islamic culture. You your interest to keep channels open, if you do not succumb. A model very similar to those put in place after the Moorish occupation of Andalusia. The bridge is there and also the keeper of the bridge, ready to dialogue with those who decide to cross it. Only that it is a "one way" towards Islam. It would be better to speak of the road, a path to the annulment of the European and Western Europe. The river is not the obstacle is only one part, ours.
