(JERUSAlEM WIThOUT GOD. PORTRAIT Of A CRUEl TOwN) By PAOlA CARIDI In spite of its legend, quiet sunsets and enchanting dawns, Jerusalem is not the town three times holy. The author, Paola Caridi, tells us about a town lived intimately. Jerusalem, the Holy City, is a memorable place for the beauty of the ancient walls and its whitewashed stones, but it is also a city where Israelis and Palestinians are shopping in the same supermarket and then shut themselves up in their living quarters, separate and invisible to each other . The current prole of this ambivalent Middle Eastern city in the Third Millennium, suspended between goodness and curse, love and fear, and that looks like an island fortress, has been traced in the new book (published by Feltrinelli, 202 pages, 16) by journalist Paola Caridi, written and presented in Palermo during a meeting with the anthropologist Franco La Cecla. The author, who lived for 10 years in Jerusalem and today lives in Sicily, in Sambuca di Sicilia, does not dwell on the Arab-Israeli conict, but takes a review of the anthropological composition of this town. I thought it was important to talk of the town, explains the author, and not about the conict. It is precisely by observing the city that, in fact, one can see all the elements of the conict and, paradoxically, also the possibility of a solution. By deconstructing the city you can begin to understand what you can do. Today, notes Ms. Caridi, Jerusalem is a city still unnished where, for example, a shared square where all ethnic groups can meet does not exist. It is a place where there is a rigid division in districts by religion and ethnicity. These divisions were created following the presence of British colonial authority. For 10 years I have been thinking that Jerusalem should be divided according to the Oslo negotiations with a two-state solution and a divided Jerusalem as the capital of Israelis and Palestinians. Today I am no longer convinced of it. Neither the internationalization of the Holy sites can be the solution. The Old City, concludes the author of the book, is an intertwinement difcult to manage. Jerusalem is a complex set of borders and contaminated relations of power that cannot be unraveled but only shared as it is. A shared square cannot exist without the resolution of the most important knot, which is the mutual recognition of Israelis and Palestinians. Enio Elisei

IT WAS A VERdI CELEBRATIOn!


The talented singers from Opera On Tap~North Texas joined us at the ICD Clubhouse for Cena on Octobrt 19 as we celebrated the 200th birthday of Italys great composer, Giuseppe Verdi. Taking center stage in the Dining Room, the eight singers kicked off the rst set with a rousing rendition of Libiamo Ne Lieti Calici from La Traviata. The arias name translates to Lets Drink from the Joyful Cup ~ and glasses were raised, song lled the room, and during dinner the laughter and conversation of ICD Members and guests kept the mood, indeed, joyful! Arias from Don Carlo, Falstaff, and Otello also lled the score for the evening. While it is almost impossible to name a best from the Verdi repertoire, Opera On Tap saved two of the most popular numbers for the end ~ La Dona e Mobile from Rigoletto and the emotional Va, Pensiero, the famous chorus from Nabucco. ICD Members were singing along to these iconic arias! In Libiamo, the chorus urges the crowd: Godiamo, la tazza, la tazza e il cantico, la note abbella e il riso ~ Let us enjoy the wine and the singing, the beautiful night, and the laughter. We certainly took their advice at the ICDs Verdi celebration! ~ Mary Ann Webster

Morgan Teri French Craig Barnes, Brenda and Robert Finch, and Tim Dickey, Lisa Ehrich, Robin Kissel and Doug Hallam, Camille and Mike DiLoreto, Ginny Ruttley along with her friend Eddy, and joining Wednesday night our newest Member Teresa Tseng. Each new Member stood up and told everyone why they joined the ICD. Lisa Ehrich, an art teacher at a local university takes her art students to Italy, so joining the Italian Club just seems right. Craig Barnes and his wife just returned from Italy and he works with the Club at TBank. Ginny Ruttley met someone at a Starbucks and found out about the Club and Tim Dickey, who recently retired, mentioned he met the same person at that Starbucks and you guessed it - he joined the Club too. Robin Kissel and Doug Hallam just moved here from California and wanted to get involved in the Dallas area, so they thought the Italian Club would be a great start. Patrick Howard (TBank PresCEO) loves everything about the Italian lifestyle and especially the great food Tommaso cooks. Dean Cimini was looking for a place to continue the Italian culture from the east coast with his family. Camille DiLoreto kept it simple: I am here because Im Italian. Chef Tommaso, as usual, said, Ciao and Buon Appetito to the group, and we say Grazie Mille, Chefthe food was MAGNIFICO. Of course without Melissa Partin and her staff s service and help, the evening could not have been a success. Grazie, Melissa. The new Members also met our president Jay Laurenzi, who shared: The Italian Club has many things for our members but the main thing we are all about is the Italian culture. Also speaking to the group was Ben Parlapiano about Charity Outreach and Cultural Outreach committees and Carrie Harris about our wonderful dance group I Colori Italiani. Benvenuti ai nuovi membri della nostra famiglia ICD. Welcome new members to our ICD family.

NEW MEMBER RECEPTIOn A FULL HOUSE!

The membership committee sponsored their 4th New Member Reception of the year on Wednesday October 16 at the Club. We had another great turn out of new Members singles, families and corporate memberships and by 6:30 we had our new Members table full. Our Italian culture took hold immediately, the new Members looked like a traditional Italian family with everyone gathering around the table, visiting, going to the antipasto table, eating and drinking some vino. You could quickly feel the excitement and spirit of the group, commented co-hosts Ken Venuso and Gina Lecca. New Members attending were sisters Luisa Nanni Morrow and Stephany Morrow with her husband Mike, Barbara Durso and Bill Desmond, Bernard Gillard, Dean Cimini with his daughter Oliva and son Nathan, three from TBank - Patrick Howard and his daughter
