SHOCKING: Jewish Brigade Descendants Kicked Out of Milan Liberation Day March | WATCH

On the day Italy remembers beating the Nazis, some “anti-fascists” turned on the descendants of Jews who actually fought them. The irony is sickening.

Italian poilce in riot gear

On Italy’s sacred Liberation Day, the day the country celebrates its 1945 victory over Nazi-Fascist forces, descendants of the Jewish Brigade and Milan’s Jewish community were surrounded, insulted, and forcibly removed from the main parade under police escort.

Demonstrators (far-left and pro-Palestinian groups) blocked their path, chanting:

  • “Zionists out of Milan”
  • “Long live Hitler”
  • “You’re lucky you’re not soap bars” (a grotesque reference to Nazi atrocities)

Police eventually extracted the Jewish participants for their safety after a tense standoff lasting over an hour. Emanuele Fiano, a Jewish former Italian MP, said bluntly: “We were kicked out. I can’t describe it any other way.”

The Bitter Irony

The Jewish Brigade was a unit of nearly 5,000 Jewish volunteers from Mandatory Palestine who fought alongside the Allies, including in Italy, against the Nazis. They helped liberate the very country now seeing their descendants driven out of a freedom celebration.

The European Jewish Congress strongly condemned the scenes:

“This incident is particularly concerning given the historical role of the Jewish Brigade… The intimidation and exclusion of Jewish participants from a commemoration of liberation represent a profound distortion of history and a serious manifestation of contemporary antisemitism.”
