The War Against Italian Americans

Original Article

Posted By: DW626, 10/12/2023 10:08:12 AM

For the last sixty or so years the media-education complex has established a rule that only ethnic groups of color are permitted to have grievances. Indeed, since the emergence of Barack Obama, these groups have formed something of a grievance-industrial complex. Italian-Americans apparently don’t pass the color test. Although they come from roughly the same Mediterranean stock as people from Spain, Americans of Spanish descent get a bump up the swag wagon. Italians get niente. People of Spanish descent even get a designated month, National Hispanic Heritage Month.

Happy Columbus Day everyone!

Italians were considered "people of color" when I was a kid. I think the "Godfather" movies were the turning point.

We moved to Long Island from Brooklyn in 1961 and we were the first Italian-Americans on the block, at times we weren't treated nicely by the neighbors after a few short years and the generousity of my parents attatude changed. Italian- American have done as much for this country as any nationalnaity. Look at any list of casulities in any war after WWI and you'll see thousands on Itialian last names. Ripping up a Columbus statue and replacing it with crack addict St. George Floyd - I cry for our nation.

From the Roman Empire to Galileo, De Vinche, Columbus, Magellan and others too many to mention. Over the last 2000 years Italy has contributed so much to the world’s development. Just one small country. Discounting North Africa what has the rest of the entire African continent, in 10,000 years, contributed in the way of Arts, Engineering and Exploration?

The headline of this article should more accurately be “The War Against White Americans.” Columbus must go not because he was Italian. His statues must be destroyed because he was white. Same for Washington, Lincoln, Jefferson, Miguel de Cervantes, Junipero Serra, Confederate generals and soldiers. If memorializing whites, the statues must be removed or defaced. Exchanging Columbus for George Floyd in Newark is the perfect example of the erasure of white people.

Great article. I am a third generation Italian. My parents did not speak Italian and my grandparents only spoke a little Italian. To this day, I am sorry they didn't continue our language tradition. Yet, I was told so many times when I spoke, I didn't sound Italian. I was never quite sure what that meant but, I always suspected people were surprised I didn't speak the "vernacular" of dese, dems, dos, that the media has always portrayed us speaking. Italian neighborhoods are rapidly disappearing, and family values we were taught at home, customs mostly centered around God, family and food, are disappearing as our children become indoctrinated into the slop that is American culture today. Like everything else, our cultures and beliefs are being ripped apart by socialist mobs in government and in the streets, to destroy the greatest country that has ever graced this earth, the United States of America.

There is no "war" on Italians or any other Americans. This is just more BS to keep us divided. Stop falling for it. The worst most people will ever experience is racial/ethnic jokes, and those are universal and harmless. They certainly do not reach the level of a "war".

Several years ago, my buddy who was Sicilian parents discovered that he was seven-percent black. I pointed out to him that he was "more" black than Barack Obama, who's only six-percent black. Obama's father always referred to himself as a Kenyan Arab, and that's why Junior looks far more like Muammar Gaddafi than Martin Luther King. For the record, Obama is 50-percent white, 44-percent Arab and six-percent black.

Yeah but Italians are white. Thus fair game for the left and the history revisionists. They are also mostly Christians, another target for the left. I hate to say this but there is a coming separation in our country and it may involve violence. I am not one to defend the abomination of slavery but I have come to the conclusion that the South should have bee allowed to secede peacefully. There would probably be a reunion of the states after the slavery issue had been resolved. The North went to war for that oldest of reasons....money although they covered the real reason with freeing the slaves. After the South seceded, the North lost the warm water ports effectively cutting off the North’s import/export business. Lincoln had the Northern businessmen screaming in one ear and the abolitionists screaming in the other. Six hundred thousand dead on both sides and countless civilians in the aftermath.

As the 2024 presidential election nears with the world on the brink of, or already in, World War Three, America must make a serious choice in 13 months. Will America course correctly or slide into bankruptcy and irrelevancy on the world stage? Perhaps the feckless Republicans need a rallying cry. Bill Clinton had one when he ran against ruling class scion George HW Bush. “It’s the economy stupid” was a phrase James Carville coined in 1992 when he was advising Bill Clinton in his successful run for the White House.

Suzanne Somers, best remembered for her starring role in the iconic 1970s sitcom Three’s Company, has passed away at age 76. Somers leaves behind a husband and a son, and I send both of them my condolences. Her passing reminded me of the fact that Three’s Company was both a show from a much more innocent time as well as a show that paved the way for the cultural dissolution that characterizes 2023. If you’re younger than I am, here’s the premise of Three’s Company, which debuted in 1976 and ran until 1984: Jack (John Ritter) needed a place to live.

I typically write my Townhall columns a couple of days ahead of time, and I hope that events don’t overcome this one. Why am I worried? Because what I’m writing about now is the deadly threat that our incompetent elite, led by that senile, corrupt, dust puppet masquerading as our president, have allowed to fester in our country. Last Thursday, I wrote about how the left literally wants to see you raped and murdered. Well, the left has also left the door open for the murderers. Now, half the Third World is waltzing across our southern border, and how do you think this is going to end?

have often noted here the difficulty our progressive and enlightened age poses for the art of satire. Satire depends on some palpable distance between common reality and the thing satirized. “Ha!,” we say, we feel viscerally, when confronted by effective satire, “that exaggeration, that caricature, that satire dramatizes a dangerous tendency in our culture. Of course, no one really tries to extract cucumbers from sunbeams, as Swift suggests in his great satire Gulliver’s Travels, but the idea that they might shows you how absurd so much academic culture is.” But what if it turned out people really did try to distill cucumbers from sunbeams? What then?

Less than a week after Israel was struck by a devastating mass invasion by the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas, American college students who initially voiced support for the terrorists have now been forced to recant their statements for fear of being canceled. As Just The News reports, perhaps the biggest example thus far is the story of Ryna Workman, the president of NYU Law’s Student Bar Association. Workman, a black woman who identifies as “non-binary,” had applied for a job with the law firm Winston and Strawn; after she had initially been accepted, the firm then sent out a public statement revoking her job offer

Understand that our foreign and domestic enemies not only eagerly support the frenzy of rape and murder we saw in Israel but that they want it repeated here in America. When they talk about “the consequences of colonialization” or complain that Israel has defended itself, they are normalizing mass atrocities by their purported allies against their actual enemies. Their enemies in Israel are Jews – men, women, and children – and here, their enemies are normal Americans – again, men, women and children. Denial simply empowers these monsters, and attempts by the goo-goos to appeal to our enemies’ morality, or to point out

Those using crutches or wheelchairs took separate routes for greater efficiency. Some of the deplorable detritus still sported red hats rather than yellow stars. Welcome to Hillary Clinton’s Amerika. In a CNN interview earlier this month Clinton said, “At some point maybe there needs to be a formal deprogramming of the (Trump) cult members.”

As armed Hamas terrorists are beheading Jewish babies, raping innocent women, and executing civilians in the street, Starbucks union workers—backed by far-left Squad member Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-VT), socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), and brain-dead Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA)—have proudly signaled public support for the terrorist invasion of Israel. Starbucks Workers United, an affiliate of the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), voiced "Solidarity with Palestine!" in a series of since-deleted posts across social media. Over the weekend, Starbucks union chapters in progressive strongholds, such as Iowa City, Chicago, and Boston, promoted "Long Live Palestinian Resistance" rallies supporting the Hamas attacks.

Monday on MSNBC served as yet another example why Andrea Mitchell is one of the worst “journalists” in America. As the Gateway Pundit previously reported, Hamas has committed multiple horrific atrocities since invading Israel Saturday. These include gunning down peaceful Israelis at a dance party, raping and abducting young Israeli women, and beheading Israeli soldiers. Hamas has even chopped off the heads of little babies and gunned down entire families in their beds. Mitchell hosted an Israeli mom whose two children were abducted by Hamas.

Rashida Tlaib’s (D-MI) atrocious statement in the aftermath of the October 7 Hamas terrorist attack on Israel, where 1,000 armed radical Islamic madmen invaded Southern Israel, killing at least 700 Israeli civilians. A campaign of rape, murder, and kidnapping ensued. None were spared, and even babies were found beheaded. And still, scores of leftists refuse to condemn Hamas, instead siding with the terrorists. Tlaib at first offered this statement:

Federal Bureau of Investigation Director Christopher Wray has revealed the bureau has seen an increase in domestic threats since last weekend's attacks in Israel. Wray, 56, made the comments while speaking to a gathering of police chiefs in San Diego Saturday, where he urged citizens to be vigilant and share intel to stop 'lone actors' inspired by Palestinian militant group Hamas. With those attacks fresh in mind, the Trump appointee acknowledged an increase in stateside threats due to a so-called 'heightened environment', and called for an increase of vigilance.

The patterns of the anti-Semitic/Marxist/”Palestinian”/LGBTQ/BLM/hate-filled alliance are nothing if not predictable. After expressing shock and dismay that their Palestinian friends in Gaza specifically targeted civilians, in under a week, they have quickly shifted back to their repeated old rhetoric. They are now blaming Israel for the horrific attacks from Hamas, calling Israel’s counter-attacks on Hamas a “terrorist siege,” blitzing the media with images of wounded from Gaza, and attacking Israel in all ways as an ‘apartheid state’ and, as Ocasio Cortez defined Israel, a nation devoted to “ethnic cleansing”. We cannot let them try to control the narrative with their blatant lies. The best way to dismiss falsities is to educate.

Iran’s Foreign Ministry claimed Monday that Hamas was ready to release its hostages if Israel ceases its airstrikes along the Gaza Strip — as the number known to have been taken by the terrorist group rose to at least 199. Hamas officials are “ready” to release hostages, but doing so would be “impossible” under Israeli airstrikes in the region, Iranian Foreign Ministry Nasser Kanaani relayed at a news conference in Tehran. The terror group “stated that they are ready to take necessary measures to release the citizens and civilians held by resistant groups, but their point was that such measures require preparations that are impossible under daily bombardment by the Zionists

Republican Jeff Landry won a landslide election on Saturday to flip the Louisiana governor’s mansion red in one of three main gubernatorial elections this year, shocking political observers with a victory that saves him the trouble of having to face a Democrat in a November runoff. Landry defeated Democrat Shawn Wilson and the rest of the field in Louisiana’s gubernatorial election, winning about 52 percent of the vote. In Louisiana, governor elections are first open to a full field of all candidates from either party in what is known as a jungle primary—and then the two top vote-getters generally advance to a runoff a month later.

Since August 2021, the sprawling Obama Presidential Center complex has been taking shape in Jackson Park on what will be a 19.3 acre campus fronting on Stony Island Avenue and stretching from 62nd Street on the south to 59th Street on the north. For months, the rising tower — which will house the museum dedicated to former President Barack Obama — has been visible to the surrounding Hyde Park neighborhood, already tall enough to call it a South Side landmark. On Monday when I visited, the concrete shaping and supporting the tower, which will be the center’s signature structure, was still about 85 feet shy of its ultimate 235-foot height.
