Through the years, every wave of immigration to the United States has experienced fear and hostility, especially during times of economic hardship, political uncertainty, or war:

-- In 1882, Congress passed the Chinese Exclusion Act[1], certainly one of America's first immigration laws, to keep out everybody of Chinese origin.

-- During the "Red Scare"[2] of the 1920's, thousands of foreign-born people thought of political radicalism were arrested and brutalized; many were deported with out a hearing.

-- In 1942, 120,000 Americans of Japanese ancestry were interned in camps[3] until the end of World War II....Prompting the following: In 1988, President Ronald Reagan signed legislation which apologized for the internment with respect to the U.S. government. The legislation stated that government actions were based on "race prejudice, war hysteria, and failing of political leadership," and beginning in 1990, reparations were paid by the government to surviving internees.

-- Today, immigrants particularly those of Latino descent are now being lambasted and defined as thieves, thieves and illegal "disease carriers."

-- Even more disturbing is that some black Americans have joined the bandwagon of "Dixie White America" in nonstop applying dread and misinformation, which instigates hate crimes against immigrants.

The "Immigrant" is nearly as frightened as was the "Negro" through the peak years of racial segregation in The Usa. Police raids are sending ripples of fear through the duration of immigrant communities all around the United States Of America. Vigilantism by racist groups just like the "Minutemen," is rising. Individuals are being torn apart carelessly, and commodities are being destroyed indiscriminately.

This anti-immigrant plan is quite similar to that performed against Jews by Dr. Joseph Goebbels[4] "Minister for Public Enlightenment & Propaganda in Nazi Germany."

Consider the following scenarios:

1. In Nazi Germany Jews were scapegoated because the way to obtain Germany's economic problems. In america, Lou Dobbs has insinuated over and over repeatedly that the financial problems of the "middle class" is really a direct results of U.S. jobs being exported overseas and that immigrants are either taking jobs from Americans and/or driving down wages. There's some reality in the "wage" element of this assertion, but without bothering to explain the "mechanics" of this state, Lou's over simplification effects in "uninformed" contempt by his readers of immigrants generally speaking.

2. In Nazi Germany, followers were constantly reminded of the battle of the Nazi Party and Germany against foreign enemies and internal enemies, specially Jews. In our United States, Lou Dobbs often reminds his audience, that millions of foreigners and legal illegal immigrants are running rampant in the United States, quite unlike official data. He usually invites "white-supremacists"[5] and demagogue politicians from racially intolerant constituencies, as experts and experts in his shows -- while denouncing civil rights organizations such as the ACLU and the Southern Poverty Law Center as "despicable" and "reprehensible." The few pro-immigrant guests invited to Mr. Dobbs' shows are regularly scolded and lambasted for their stance. To stir the pot further, Mr. Dobbs' always ends his TELEVISION shows with un-scientific impromptu polls, that are always skewed and possibly doctored -- maliciously presented as the view of the majority.

3. Propagandists praised Germany since the only defender of what they called "Western European culture" against the "Bolshevist hordes( Russians )." In this town hall meeting and as in preceding ones, the issue of English being an official language came up -- the fear that English will be "replaced," by the Spanish language [...a subliminal insinuation that the white Anglo-Saxon culture in being contaminated] has been used regularly by Lou Dobbs and co., to drive fear up the spines of Americans.

4. Jews in Nazi Germany were printed as infection carriers, pollutants of the pure German race -- recently Lou Dobbs and despite being met with undeniable proof to the contrary, maintained his declare that there has been 7,000 new cases of leprosy[6] in the U.S. Recently attributing the boost to "unscreened illegal immigrants." Such reckless utterances in conventional media, only help embolden dislike groups -- who get frequently to keep consitently the 'Cradle of the Confederacy' secure from leprosy, pedophiles, Spanish and wild godlessness[7].

In 2007, history is repeating it self.

Lou Dobbs along with a swarm of rabid right-wing pundits, buoyed by bad politicians like Congressman Tom Tancredo of Colorado and Duncan Hunter of California, are playing an important role in fomenting anti-immigrant anxiety -- patting the fires of racist extremism and fueling a dramatic development in hate groups.

This YouTube.com video[8] demonstrates how inflammatory speech on public airwaves fosters hate and intolerance.

In the 1920's Nazi Science had just developed the "Magneto phone," the very first tape recorder, which meant that their propaganda could be time-delayed, allowing them to tailor their message of hate for local use -- 87 decades later, Lou Dobbs has use of CNN's state of art propaganda equipment -- I bet Dr. Goebbels is turning in his grave with love.

So far as I am concerned, any person who has lived in the Usa for many years, has participated fully in the machine, and has no felonious mis-deeds, goes here and should really be treated with some regard -- the firm stand -- "depot them all," "we are a country of laws" -- is really a smokescreen for -- "we hope this trusted old fashioned USA was a century lily white." ...a practical tool for extortion. It is not just inhuman but additionally bigoted to the primary.

The harsh and racist history of the country refers.

The U.S. Constitution does not give the best to foreigners to enter the U.S. But once here, it shields them from discrimination predicated on race and national origin and from arbitrary treatment by the us government.

Immigrants pay and work taxes; legal immigrants are at the mercy of the military draft. Many immigrants have lived in this country for years, married U.S. People, and raised their U.S.-citizen kiddies. Regulations that punish them violate their fundamental right to fair and equal treatment.

By "stroking and massaging" the dormant "hate genes" residing within the "nativists," Lou Dobbs and other right-wing demagogues are making the method of legislating the immigration issue greatly torturous, or even impossible.

It's therefore my opinion that, Lou Dobbs is really a tactical propagandist worse than Dr. Joseph Goebbels[9] "Minister for Public Enlightenment & Propaganda in Nazi Germany." There may be no ovens or death camps to totally cement my contrast -- but the several elements of Nazism are abundantly clear.

When Lou Dobbs totally ignores the "positives" and alternatively inflames and distorts the "negatives," he is criminally inciting the people -- some of that are ready to actually eliminate everyone they can classify being an "illegal immigrant."

In a where racism is held back in check by a of laws (which aren't always uniformly and fairly used), I submit that this "distortionist" experience which CNN and Lou Dobbs are engaged in, is not only very hazardous, but negates any development this country has produced in race relations, and decreases America's position as symbolic of justice worldwide.

That "town hall" gathering so far as I'm involved, was a hate meeting" -- skillfully woven in to the fabric of mainstream media for profit and to promote racial division -- a trend mastered by Fox News, the "UnFair and Totally UnBalanced" trash information station.

There's a need to understand this matter skillfully, humanely and with fairness, for no-one wants to be struck by Osama Bin Laden and his cohorts -- secure the boundaries, but let those who have been residing in the shadows emerge and be counted. You are able to bet the ones will continue hiding, but the hard working immigrants who have roots in this country should be allowed to fulfill their goals.

Getting immigrants that are here unlawfully to the open is an essential procedure in the war against Terrorism. Shock ways will push them further underground -- rendering it harder to locate and track the hard-core legal ones, who I publish do not fit in just about any community.

America is a nation of immigrants -- the stream of immigrants must be controlled and governed, but we mustn't enable the issue to be hijacked and used to move the racist agenda of the "propagandist extortionists" like Lou Dobbs, right wing political demagogues and hazardous Neo-Nazi bigots to whom Lou Dobbs has changed into a hero.

The United States Senate has brought a bold first faltering step, and they are applauded by me. Ideally a reasoned and enduring complete solution will be reached in due course.
