Great now the players are really getting aligned if this is true that Italy is going back to its old ways. What next Germany?? If this is the case then WW2 wasn't as successful as we thought it was.

So the players are;

NATO (maybe minus Germany and Italy)

vs.

The Rest

I know Germany is supposed to be an ally but we will see what happens..

Re: Italy Now a Problem??

the message was geared towards the nationalism of italy. in that it should not erach a level where it fuels something else. hatred. which is evident in the fact that the roma are essentially people without a nation and are given no real rights in most euro countries.

also, and this comes from family i have in naples suburbs, and outside rome, there is an influx of middle eastern and north african immigrants there, and frankly, the italians dont want them at all, for various reasons, from economic to the obvious religious problems arising there. (italy limits the number of tmeples and mosques in most of the country, letting christianity dominate.)

It is weird with the strength of the Euro now how immigration issues are becoming a problem in Europe, seems like the same stuff that use happen in the US when it had an economy, with the same reaction by the native population, what a surprize.
