THE ROBERT W. WHITAKER ARCHIVE

THE "SO-CALLED 'WHITE' RACE" | 2002-09-14

In his article Roberts follows the rules of respectable conservatism. He puts "the white race" in quotes, something he never does with blacks.

Ignatiev does not put "the white race" in quotes. He has no doubt about what he's trying to do away with. Neither does anybody else.

For a while, Craig Roberts himself ran the editorial page of the "Wall Street Journal." He must have been very good to be hired for that, because he has written columns asking why, in the Holy Name of Diversity, no one dares to say that white countries should be preserved.

But no one disagrees with the continued existence of white majority countries more than does the Wall Street Journal. The Journal officially demands that a constitutional amendment be passed that says, simply, "There shall be no borders."

The Wall Street Journal wants all the cheap labor that can flow in from the third world. Like the Libertarian Party, they assume that, when they become citizens, those masses would not vote to redistribute the wealth through a big government.

I was in school with Craig Roberts many years ago, and he is not that kind of fool. It takes guts to say what he said, and I applaud him. But Ignatiev is perfectly correct. Nobody is allowed to join in public discussion unless he can demonstrate that he is HONESTLY devoted to the abolition of white skin.

There is no room in this world for racism. Racism comes in only one color, and everybody who can read knows it.

And Craig Roberts says so

"College students will tell you that a university education today is a guilt trip for whites." And Roberts reaches a conclusion that will not surprise readers of WhitakerOnline

"Ignatiev has an idea like Hitler. A race is guilty and must go. The communists said it was a guilty class that had to go. If you thought genocide was left behind in the 20th century, be apprised that today genocide has a home in the educational system."
