Fiamma Nirenstein won't run for reelection, making aliya instead

You mentioned bipartisan relations here, but you really didn’t like a decision in particular that Monti made …“On one side I can express satisfaction with the bipartisan works in the committee on Anti-Semitism and on many other issues; nonetheless I was deeply disappointed by Monti’s indication to vote for the Palestinian non-member observer status at the UN”.
Why do you think he made such a decision?
“In the prospective of a better relationship with the left. He believes, like many others, that the pro-Arab ante might pay off. I am concerned that should a new D’Alema be appointed as Minister of Foreign Affairs, Italy would once again plunge in a backward position, with a distorted view of the issues of the Arab world and Israel”.
Any plans for the next future?
“I want to go back to Israel and take the citizenship. I have good reasons to do so. January 27^thwill be Holocaust Remembrance Day; nevertheless, widespread anti-Semitism still persists across the world, Israel is the only really secure homeland for the jews. Plus I also think that Israel is the only country offering nowadays a cultivated and intelligent future, a country where people lead a simpler and more naturallife, in solidarity, finding its strengths in the love of the nation and a deep meaning of life”.
