Love and hate: let's not forget Aylan Kurdi

 


The play "Love and Hate: Let Us Not Forget Aylan Kurdi" is a thriller that portrays the current migration crisis in Europe.

The clash of civilizations—the historical rivalry between extremists who use religious radicalism to spread hatred and intolerance, and fundamentalists striving for ideological hegemony—forms the backdrop in which the plot unfolds.

The Islamic State decides to carry out, in Germany, a terrorist act that would go down in history as the largest and most terrifying ever perpetrated on the planet.

Contextualizing philosophy and geopolitics, history and social sciences, state policies, and strategic planning, the characters move through the story provoking and challenging the reader to deeply reflect on the values most cherished by Western-Christian culture: democracy and freedom, justice and individual rights.

Three homosexual women lead tense and intense discussions about this traumatic world where—despite the advances in politics—anger, hatred, intransigence, sectarianism, unchecked violence, and fanaticism still prevail.

Mullahs, imams, caliphs, ayatollahs, Islamic fundamentalism on one side; on the other, authoritarian experiences in the West such as Nazism and Communism, the KGB and the Stasi—forming the backdrop that feeds the ferocious beast of violence—lay the groundwork for the strengthening of nationalism, the closing of borders, the building of walls, and the disdain for the ‘other's’ culture, the ‘foreigner's’ references, and the suffering endured by refugees and the marginalized.

Along with characters emerging from the shadows of the CIA, KGB, Mossad, and Russian and Chinese agencies...
