Several fountains in the center Naples were dyed red last night as a protest against civilian deaths in Palestine during the Israeli offensive.
A far-right Italian activist group calling itself “Cubi” seems to be responsible. As a means of taking credit for the action, they left leaflets encased in plastic floating in the fountain. The leaflets read, “7 December 2008 – 18 January 2009, Operation Cast Lead, 1,203 dead, 5,300 wounded. The world sat by and watched on the edge of the precipice.”
Reminds us a bit of the Trevi Fountain stunt of some years ago.
