By now much of the English human rights' orientated readership are aware of the ongoing pogrom against Romani gypsies in Italy. A process which has seen camps burnt in Naples and Milan, a story of child snatching faked and prompted weak condemnation from the EU of mass expulsions. Whenever the swamp filth of hatred is agitated so effectively at so many levels of any society it is wise to look for other agenda. It's even wiser to suggest such other agenda in a silly and ironic way. Thus I offer a short Q&A to readers who might like to understand where all this is going... November 2009 implementation of biometric and other database requirements for all nonEU humans within our fortress.

Q : is scapegoating gypsies new?
A : Gypsies have been scapegoated as long as people ran out of jewish or muslim neighbours in the late medieval age and didn't have the pluck to blame nordic vikings or menstruating women.

Q : are Romani Gypsies Romanian, I ask because a nice young man on "Corriere.TV" the youtube style opinion forum of the mainstream Italian newspaper said this week that after living in Romania he was convinced Romanians carry thieving in the genes.
A : No, Romani are not Romanians. And you can't carry thieving in the genes otherwise tippy toppy scientists would be working on a gene therapy for the world's royal dynasties which included fringe benefits like haemophilia, big ears and balding.

Q : Do Romani have big ears?
A : Myles Kingston wrote quite chortlingly in the early 1980's in a column that both Bulgarians and Romanians had furry ears but he didn't mention Romani.

Q : Can't we just put the Romani in camps before sending them out east somewhere to have their own homeland?
A : We're actually burning their camps instead and the homeland thing is a bit underated as a final solution.

Q : How do you recognise a Romani if they don't submit to tattoos or wearing little badges on their clothes?
A : They look like Albanians, poor European muslims, Armenians, socialist Iranians in exile, Kurds and so on so forth.

Q : do they have any special eating requirements?
A : anything which ensures they only enjoy an average life expectancy of 35 years as opposed to 80 years of an average non-Gypsy Italian.

Q : do they suffer hair loss and balding?
A : you'd have to examine the DNA for that.

Q : do they get respectfully treated by employees in the law enforcement sector be they police, prison guards, magistrates, probation officers, stenographers of court duty journalists?
A : well you never hear any complaints, do you? [Pauline Campbell RIP  http://indymedia.org.uk/en/2008/05/398962.html ]

Q : How many Romani are there?
A : out of the 59.5 million Italians there are roughly 150,000 Romani, of whom approximately 90,000 are children and at least 13,000 are Italian citizens.

Q : They've been having babies then?
A : Yes.

Q : Has the new Berlusconi government offered any new ideas to explain how he will stop in his own words "an army of evil" which is the Romani Gypsy threat to Italian culture and purity?
A : Oh yes. He's staying quite on top of it is old bag eyes. His minister of the interior Roberto Maroni is going to introduce new ministries for Romani Gypsy affairs in the cities of Naples and Milan.

Q : are there any Romani gypsies left in Naples and Milan since their camps were burnt?
A : it's a time honoured Italian tradition to create jobs which require no more work than collecting a salary.

Q : Isn't Maroni suggesting a ministry for Gypsies / Romanians / country knit stocking and flipflop sandal wearers / young mothers/ vagrant muslims / Kurds / people with gold fillings / accordian players / exiled socialist Iranians / Albanians / Kosovars who aren't Albanian / hard to define vagabond itinerant misfits in Rome too?
A : oh yes. That's where newly elected self-admitted fascist mayor Gianni Alemanno wants to pogrom 20,000 of the aforementioned diverse.

Q : what is Shengen 2 and the Shengen Information System 2 and should their implementation in November 2009 be considered with all this?
A. According to Minister Maroni, the new measures to ensure a gypsy free Italy will provide a useful template for those EU states implementing Shengen 2 and SIS2 in November 2009 which will allow Bulgarians and Romanians with money and fixed abodes regardless of hirsute ears to travel freely in the EU as long as they spend money.
