 Right Web Profile Federation for American Immigration Reform
FAIR’s links to other local and national organizations that are stridently anti-immigrant, anti-Latino, and supremacist have undermined FAIR’s own credibility and led to questions about the underlying agenda of its restrictionist approach to immigration.
FAIR has very clearly and consistently drawn the distinction between immigration policy and immigrants.” (10) With respect to charges that the immigration policies it advocates and its educational activities are racist, FAIR responds: “There are always people who support the right idea for the wrong reasons—but that doesn’t make the idea itself wrong.
John Tanton set up several other anti-immigrant organizations after FAIR was created.

 VDARE.com: 02/18/05 - Save Our State Successful—And Therefore Smeared
And, of course, the ADL report conveniently failed to mention that Arizona property owners have for decades pleaded in vain for the federal government to enforce immigration law.
Jim Robinson wouldn’t have to censor posts about illegal immigration that he disagrees with or exhaust himself by fretting about what immigration reform groups might be affiliated with which other causes.
The ADL appears to have learned at the knee of Morris Dees and the Southern Poverty Law Center.

 California Historian
Ultimately these non-governmental groups, interested in altering the Immigration Act of 1924, were not only ineffectual in altering public policies but also prolonged the life of the anti-Japanese groups and kept the pot of anti-Japanese sentiments stirred, to the detriment of Japanese American communities on the West Coast.
Hirobe further demonstrates that even as private non-governmental groups lobbied for reform of the Immigration Act of 1924, this stimulated and prolonged the life of other non-governmental anti-Japanese organizations in California.
Especially virulent were the attacks by the California Joint Immigration Committee (CJIC), Native Sons of the Golden West, California State Grange, California Department of the American Legion and organized labor.

 Anti-Semitism Worldwide 1999/2000 - Italy
In May 1999, the LN, supported by three radical right-wing movements based mainly in central and southern Italy -- Forza Nuova, Movimento Sociale-Fiamma Tricolore and Fronte Nazionale -- led a campaign to petition for a referendum to repeal the 1998 Turco-Napolitano immigration law, which regulates immigration and the status of foreigners.
In March 2000, Silvio Berlusconi, leader of Forza Italia and Polo delle Libertà, and LN leader Bossi, presented a draft bill aimed at toughening Italy’s immigration law.
Forza Nuova (New Power), led by fugitives from justice Roberto Fiore and Massimo Morsello, is considered to be the most radical of Italy’s extreme right groups.

 Anti-immigrant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The political effects of anti-immigration/immigration reductionism movements have been embodied in the US welfare reform bill of 1996 and initiatives such as Protect Arizona Now in 2004.
Another issue concerns free trade; immigrant rights advocates believe it is hypocritical and inhumane to allow goods and money to freely cross borders yet impose numerous requirements on people to do the same thing.
However, as most Americans are themselves descended from immigrants, many feel that it is hypocritical to criticize those who enter the country through legal means, and neither of the two major parties has proposed curtailing the number of visas given out annually.

 LTE-Re: "Hispanics organize against anti-immigrant, legislation"
Thirdly, by arbitrarily throwing two different categories of people, legal immigrants and illegal immigrants to one class of "immigrants", it creates a false impression that the laws of the U.S. are "anti-immigrant" while all they try to accomplish is to discourage illegal immigration.
It was my personal experience, as well as an experience of my many immigrant colleagues from around the world that the U.S. immigration process was fair and that America is incomparably more immigrant-friendly than any other civilized country we know of.
Second, it suggests that not allowing illegal immigrants to apply for a driver's license or to vote is caused by "cultural reasons" and a result of discrimination against "more than 300,000 Hispanics living in the state".

 MyDD :: Anti-Immigrant Wedge in CA-50
Republican politicians are rushing to embrace immigration and anti-immigrant positions as key wedge issue in the 2006 election and, they hope, beyond.
I rarely agree with David Brooks, but this editorial warrants careful consideration, Two Steps Toward a Sensible Immigration Policy:

 Catholic World News : Vatican official denounces anti-immigrant proposal
The Vatican official was responding to reports by a right-wing Italian leader, Umberto Bossi, who had suggested that immigration should be stopped, if necessary, by "pointing the guns" against the immigrants.
Bishop Agostino Marchetto, the secretary of the Pontifical Council for Migrants, told the Italian daily Corriere della Sera that while governments have the right to regulate immigration, that right must be balanced against the human rights of the immigrants.
The Vatican official pointed out that while many immigrants now enter Italy illegally, their offense must be seen in the proper context.

 Pacific News Service > News > Liberals, Conservatives Oppose New 'Anti-Immigrant' Bill
The bill "tries to paint immigrants as potential terrorists, and slam the door on them," says Jeanne Butterfield, executive director of the American Immigration Lawyers Association.
The bill requires states to enforce federal immigration laws, and penalizes states that wish to determine for themselves who should receive driver's licenses.
Religious and immigrant rights groups, conservatives and conservationists are joining forces against the REAL ID Act, a bill introduced by House Judiciary Committee Chairman James Sensenbrenner (R-WI).

 The Seattle Times: Politics: Anti-immigrant initiatives growing
The passage of an Arizona voter initiative that blocks some public services for illegal immigrants has energized similar movements in other states, including California, and could influence the national immigration debate, say the initiative's backers and experts on immigration.
State workers who do not report to federal authorities illegal immigrants applying for benefits could be jailed.
The California initiative would block illegal immigrants from accessing local and state benefits and from obtaining driver's licenses.

 Anti-Immigrant Legislation Passed by House
One of the nation's bedrock principles - sanctuary - would be badly crimped by the measure, which would also block states from granting driver's licenses to illegal immigrants.
In the name of foiling potential terrorists, the House has passed a misbegotten immigration control bill that would make it harder for persecuted immigrants to get political asylum in this country.
It would require political asylum applicants to offer greater evidence of persecution and give judges less power to reverse asylum denials by immigration officials.

 American Civil Liberties Union : ACLU Says House Anti-Immigrant Provisions Break From 9/11 Commission; Calls on Members to Reject Mean-Spirited Measures
The ACLU noted that none of these anti-immigrant policies were recommended by the 9/11 Commission, and many have long been priorities for the hard-line anti-immigration lobby.
Several commissioners have recently raised concerns about many of the superfluous law enforcement and immigration provisions in the House bill.
The Republican House leadership "9/11 Commission Implementation Act" was the subject of several committee votes last week, and most efforts to amend the bill to address civil liberties concerns were defeated on party-line votes.

 PA Editor: Zionists Behind Anti-Semitic Attacks
Palestinian Media Watch (PMW) reported this week that a prominent Palestinian Authority newspaper editor has accused Israelis and other Zionists of carrying out terror attacks against Jewish targets in the Diaspora, in order to encourage Jewish immigration to Israel.
The editor explained that since Israel suffers from low immigration, it was Israel who started last month’s fire in a Parisian synagogue — in order to convince French Jews to leave France for Israel.
The editor, Hafez Barghouti, told the PA television audience: "The secret Zionist gangs have been trying, and are acting in France in the same way they used to act in Arab countries- Iraq, Egypt and Morocco - blowing up...

 Why Libertarians Are a Joke
So you see, at bottom, what clinches my argument that Libertarians are a joke, is that they support a policy -- mass immigration -- which will destroy any chance of their good ideas ever being implemented.
Their advocacy of loose immigration will lead to a swarm of third world immigrants who inevitably vote for Democrats in overwhelming numbers.
Therefore, Libertarianism, despite its avowed anti-statism, would lead to statism on a massive scale.

 ISAR - The Roots of the I.Q. Debate
The first organized anti-immigrant group, the Immigration Restriction League, was founded in 1894 in Boston by a small group of Harvard-educated lawyers and academics; Prescott Hall and Robert DeCourcey Ward were the driving forces behind the League.
Eugenical segregation and, usually, sterilization (a few eugenicists opposed sterilization); restrictive marriage laws, including anti-miscegenation statutes; and restrictive immigration laws formed the three parts of the negative eugenics agenda.
The Immigration Restriction League was based on a belief in the superiority of the white races.

 Guardian Unlimited The Guardian Anti-migrants plan coup at 100-year-old green group
There are claims that anti-immigration groups are planning to take over the Sierra Club, in a battle that has reopened the debate on the priorities for environmentalists worldwide.
The position as stated when the matter was first debated in the club in the 1990s was that "ignoring the 60% of US population growth caused by current legal immigration is like trying to heat a house with the windows open".
The group suggested that the club's desire to avoid the issue was based on "globalism over nationalism" and "political correctness over environmental correctness".

The Immigration Restriction Act of 1901, drafted at a time when Australian workers feared importation of low-cost labour from China and the Pacific islands, kept them out.
On current trends and in the absence of increased immigration, says the BCA paper, the population would ‘peak at just under 21 million by 2030 and decline quickly thereafter’.
The nearest Asian country, and possibly the largest source of future Asian immigration to Australia, is Indonesia.

Russia, already saddled with terrorism and secession of problems from racial minorities in its borders areas, realizes that opening the gates of immigration to the surrounding regions’ alien populations would be tantamount to suicide for the Russian state and people.
The specter of social unrest, ethnic turmoil and terrorism is inevitable with a change in immigration policy.
Four Arab Israelis shot dead by a soldier opposed to the closure of the Gaza Strip settlements are not victims of “terror” because their killer was Jewish, Israel’s defence ministry has ruled, and so their families are not entitled to the usual compensation for life.

 Anti-racism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
By its nature, anti-racism tends to promote the view that racism in a particular society is both pernicious and socially pervasive, and that particular changes in political, economic, and/or social life are required to eliminate it.
On the contrary, they often charge the left with reverse racism, and insist that the right is the true inheritor of anti-racism's egalitarian tradition.
Thus, they argue that racism still drives such phenomena as the drug war, the prison system, ongoing segregation of housing, racial profiling, police brutality, U.S. imperialism, and possibly the immigration reductionism movement.

 Anti-Zionism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thus, while small-scale Jewish immigration (such as the First Aliyah of the 1880s) caused little trouble and indeed was often welcomed for the economic development it would herald, larger influxes of Jews were resisted strenuously.
This debate is complicated by two further factors: the habit of genuine anti-Semites of using the term "Zionist" as a synonym and/or euphemism for "Jew," and the tendency for radical Islamist elements to use the rhetoric of traditional European anti-Semitism.
Anti-Zionism is often characterized by opposition to the existence of the State of Israel as a Jewish state.

The fascists may well lose support to the more moderate racists if these 'moderates' succeed in slowing immigration.
This fascist tactic of swamping areas was only possible because these gangs were funded by the industrialists while those fighting against them were workers who could not leave their jobs for long periods of time to concentrate where ever the fascists were.
At the time only the anarchists were willing to physically fight the fascists but the fascist tactic of smashing the left on an area by area basis meant they, on their own, lacked the strength to stop the fascists.
