When Israel's independence was proclaimed in Tel Aviv on May 14, 1948, as leaders of the nascent state sang "Hatikva" (Hope), few could have imagined the vibrant state that exists today. The Zionist movement was a reaction to European anti-Semitism and pogroms that climaxed with the Nazi slaughter of 6 million Jews. But Arab states and the Palestinians had rejected the 1947 U.N. partition of British mandate Palestine into two states, one Jewish, one Arab. A civil war between Palestinians and Jews had been raging for months, and the armies of Egypt, Jordan, Syria and Iraq were poised to invade.

One would think that from the American experience, and especially those who wrote back to their families and relatives in Italy, that Italians would have sympathy with the plight of immigrants. With today's Italian rightwing politicians this does not seem to be the case. Italy already has very stringent laws about who can become Italian citizens. The Italian government classifies all those born of "Italian blood" that they can be citizens. So we have many immigrants in Italy who because of theirs or their parent's nationality cannot be classified as Italian. Worse, even those who moved to Italy cannot qualify for Italian citizenship. Laws on Italian citizenship are to put it mildly archaic. Recently, the Italian government under its conservative President Silvio Berlusconi and its right...

Prominent leaders were still talking of the "class enemy," advocating a policy of unilateral nuclear disarmament and the eviction of American military bases from the British Isles, and clinging hard to a clause in the party constitution calling for the "common ownership of the means of production, distribution and exchange." To most neutral observers, it was pretty clear that a party that was forced to fend off a conspiracy by Marxist infiltrators, called for abject surrender in the face of mounting Soviet aggression, and supported widely unpopular industrial actions by public sector unions that threatened to paralyze the country was not fit to govern a modern democracy.

The sea lanes of the South Atlantic have become a favored route for drug traffickers carrying narcotics from Latin America to West and North Africa, where al Qaeda-related groups are increasingly involved in transporting the drugs to Europe, intelligence officials and counternarcotics specialists say. A Middle Eastern intelligence official said his agency has picked up "very worrisome reports" of rapidly growing cooperation between Islamic militants operating in North and West Africa and drug lords in Latin America. With U.S. attention focused on the Caribbean and Africans lacking the means to police their shores, the vast sea lanes of the South Atlantic are wide open to illegal navigation, the official said.
