Gianni VattimoItalian philosopher Gianni Vattimo urges Europeans “to buy Hamas some more rockets” to “shoot those bastard Zionists” because Hamas’ current arsenal is limited to “toy rockets that don’t really kill anyone.” A self-styled gay-Catholic-Communist, Vattimo’s existentialist philosophy —rooted in that of Hitler’s favorite philosopher, Martin Heidegger—emphasizes “weak thought” as superior to “objective truth.” Vattimo also urged formation of international brigades to fight for Hamas the way they fought against Franco before World War II. Given both Vattimo’s philosophy and politics, one may wonder which side Vattimo would really have been on.
