There was the Lula coach, the goalkeeper and there is the president who they like to beat February 21, 2024 Juca Kfouri

I need an excuse to defend Lula here in the sports section.

I turn to two great Lulas, the Santos coach at his peak and the lesserknown Corinthians goalkeeper at the end of 1960, who twice replaced threetime champion Félix in the national team.

However, let's move on to the most famous of them, the tripresident.

He found something that will be useful Sheetfrom the editorial to the columnists.

Someone has to disagree, even at the risk of being seen as sycophantic.

How nice it is to beat the former metal worker, who, in order to have a university degree, had to have a Doctor Honoris Causa today there are almost 40 degrees from the Federal University of Pernambuco, where he was born, to the University of Coimbra in Portugal or Salamanca in Spain or even Sciences Po in Paris.

When Lula said that “the concept of democracy is relative” regarding Venezuela, he was beaten like a thief.

Although he had the genius of Albert Einstein to fall back on, who even said, “Nothing is absolute, EVERYTHING is relative,” the president received a welldeserved beating because defending Nicolás Maduro is difficult.

Well, by associating Hitler with the Jews without taking care to contextualize it with the sensitivity required of the subject, it took so long that it was no longer possible here and it must be done all over the world say With the exception of the terrorist government in Israel, the impact has been almost nil.

There was a time of the Holocaust.

Lula didn't mention him explicitly, but he doesn't even have to be malicious to treat the speech as if he had mentioned him.

Yes, there have been several genocides in human history, and it is undeniable that in a government like the Israeli government, which has ministers who can say: “We fight against animals and act accordingly,” like the defense minister there Yoav Gallant said there is little doubt about their wishes regarding Gaza.

There is a difference between quantity and quality.

Six million people who were murdered in concentration camps will never be forgotten and should never be mentioned in passing.

Bibi Netanyahu's methods in the openair concentration camp he built in Gaza differ little from the Nazis' methods. Without petrol.

If the humanist Lula had said that “Netanyahu is to the Palestinians what Hitler was to the Jews,” the protests would have been limited to Bolsonaro supporters who wanted to cover up their leader's statement to the PF this Thursday (22).

Whenever there is talk of stopping the killing in Gaza, one must demand that the hostages be returned to the terrorist hands of Hamas.

And it seems a lie that this unfortunate sentence provokes more outrage than the paragraph in Dorrit Harazin's masterful column with testimony from American pediatrician Seema Jilani:

“His right arm and right leg were torn off by a bomb. His diaper was bloody and remained in place even though there was no leg left. I treated him first on the floor as there were no stretchers available (…). At his side was a man taking his last breaths. He had been actively dying for 24 hours, with flies all over him (…) The 1 year old baby was bleeding profusely from the chest… There was no ventilator, no morphine, no pressure gauge in the middle chaos. (…) An orthopedist wrapped the child's stumps with gauze and announced that he would not immediately take him to the operating room because there were more urgent cases.
