[00:00:00]  You were telling me that your current prime minister, she's a legitimate conservative, and I know that.
[00:00:07]  I have not followed this.
[00:00:10]  What is the Italian government's stance on Israel right now?
[00:00:16]  Right.
[00:00:18]  So, tragically, our current prime minister is...
[00:00:24]  Her position on the war aligns pretty much with the mainstream.
[00:00:29]  So she was in favor of sending money to Ukraine.
[00:00:33]  She's in favor of supporting Israel.
[00:00:36]  She is in favor of supporting Israel.
[00:00:39]  Is that what you said?
[00:00:40]  Yes.
[00:00:42]  So would you say that in that sense, Italy is not following the general pattern of European governments?
[00:00:53]  I'm not quite sure about that.
[00:00:56]  I don't think...
[00:00:58]  No, only because the general view of the EU and the Democratic Party in the United States is Israel should stop fighting.
[00:01:12]  Yes, yes.
[00:01:14]  So is that the view of the Italian government?
[00:01:17]  Um, I'm not sure.
[00:01:25]  I couldn't tell you that because I'm not sure what the position is.
[00:01:29]  Which is interesting in and of itself.
[00:01:32]  One other question on this matter.
[00:01:36]  Are well-educated young Italians as anti-Israel as well-educated young Americans are?
[00:01:44]  Yes, absolutely.
[00:01:47]  Absolutely.
[00:01:48]  The same thing you see in the U.S. is happening in Italy.
