arbereshe if they are catholic yes but most of them are not so they cant they usually makes the greek-byzantine rite but if they are catholic yes they are totally italians for centuries its like to to make a man coz it has spanish ancestors in 1400 They are Catholic, they're Eastern Byzantine-rite Catholic and not Roman Catholic, but they belong to the Church. Byzantine/Greek rite Catholics are ex-Orthodox people who accepted the authority of the Pope in Rome but preserved some of the old Orthodox liturgy.

There was some discussion on this sort of thing in another thread recently.
Its like, your family only got here in the sixteenth century; your a foreigner. Funny thing for the virulent racism that runs through many mobsters is the actual ethnographic histories of Southern Italian names and bloodlines. What are some of the Southern Italian names you talking about in your post?

@yigido
your talking about the arab tribes that conquered sicily they looked like they was black but they weren't black, like the berbers and moors they weren't black. the pictures of Jesus you see is not the real description Jesus even really looked like a moor or berber. Some of the Moors (which is a name Europeans collectively gave to most anyone of ) were very much black-african. The Moors were an eclectic group of islamic peoples of varying ethnic backgrounds (the berbers are often caught in the catch-all of the term "moor" as well). At least this is what I recall from my university days. Could be wrong (but I don't think I am).

Oh, Christ. Not this thread again. Botz's gift to the board that just keeps on giving  .

Better question: who cares?
The Chicago thread became an embarrassment. Luckily it's somewhat back on track.
But quibbling over Gigante's roots is just......eh. lol. Exactly. But the more we say it, the longer the thread hangs around. A real fucking Catch 22  .

Oh, Christ. Not this thread again. Botz's gift to the board that just keeps on giving  . I hadn't even really read anything beyond the first and last pages of this thread. I love history, though, so I can't resist any opportunity to talk about it.

Who did Arnold squitieri meet in 2002 I think it was , were they Albanians or Russians ?? They threatened to blow the gas station up , squitieri eventually came out on top and they backed off That was the Rudaj crew, Dom. They got thirty years and the media finally stopped predicting an Albanian-Italian mob war  .

In Europe that hype was even worse than in the USA. Absolutely. Sensationalist journalism has its roots in Europe for sure.
