Re: Anonymous on Irish immigrants.

We agree on the need for the return of all illegal foreign nationals to their respective homelands including the Irish, but his/her intemperate diatribe reeks of the basest ethnic supremacy. He/she would profit from readings in Anglo-Irish history wherein Anglo-Saxon oppression of Celtic people left a black mark on their relationships for hundreds of years. Perhaps that is the reason for Irish politicians' prejudice in that regard.

By James Fulford writes: VDARE.COM’s focus is on the downside of various forms of immigration, including the immigration that happened in the nineteenth century, which is often romanticized. So, while we have Irish and Irish-American readers and writers, we question whether any immigration has been an unmixed blessing.

See The Camp of Saint Patrick … by me, about the Famine Immigration, also Ganging Up On America, about the Gangs Of New York era, and a letter responding to it: An Irish-American Reader Complains About Fulford’s "Ganging Up On America." in which I claim that some of my best friends, (and ancestors and relatives, I might add) are Irish. In fact, I am much more relaxed about Anglo-Irish history than John Derbyshire, but that doesn’t mean Derbyshire is wrong.
