Italy's culture of racism exposed by fans' abuse of black football star
Born in Sicily to Ghanaian parents, Inter Milan's Mario Balotelli personifies a refusal to accept a multi-ethnic society
When euro countries criticize Israel though....it's solely because of politics and no previously harbored resentment towards Jews. (as evidenced by centuries of genocides dating back to before the black plague.)
