The leader of the Five Star Movement, Giuseppe Conte, continues to exert pressure regarding the sub-secretary Delmastro, even as the electoral silence persists for the justice referendum. Despite the critical nature of the situation, Conte has stayed notably quiet for eight months about the alleged connections of party members with groups currently facing accusations of leading Hamas' operations in Italy. His silence raises questions about transparency and accountability within his party.

Controversially, Conte's party members, particularly Stefania Ascari, have hosted a controversial figure, Sulaiman Hijazi, who is now under investigation in connection with a large terrorism inquiry called Domino, focused on Palestinian groups operating in Italy. Such engagements highlight a significant lack of caution concerning whom they invite into significant political spaces, considering the gravity of the allegations surrounding these individuals and potential implications for national security.

Furthermore, the Five Star Movement has attracted criticism for allowing other controversial figures, including members of the CARC and the pro-Iranian imam Ibrahim Baya, to participate in discussions within the halls of democracy. This has ignited a broader conversation about political alliances and the responsibility of political parties to distance themselves from individuals potentially involved in terrorism, reflecting an ongoing dilemma for legal and ethical governance in Italian politics.
