I have always enjoyed my visits to Italy, and will continue to do so.

Berlusconi talks straight, not like a politician. He doesn't have that BS socialist agenda clouding his thoughts. Maybe he has been reading Cicero, finding out what it was that made Rome great in its day.

They must know the price the Americans paid to free our continent.

Bravo to Berlusconi!

That settles it. For tomorrow night's dinner, the wine will be Italian (heh, heh - like that's a sacrifice).

This statement will only further convince the Euro-weenies (which does not include all Europeans, but they seem to be a solid majority) that Berlusconi is a right-wing radical. Practically a new Mussolini (yes, the irony will be lost on them for using this statement to bolster that belief).

That's why it is right for us Italians to recall the 4th June 1944, when, sixty years ago, the allies freed Rome, our capital, from the Nazis, two days before the US troops landed in Normandy

One of the 3ID troops who landed at Anzio, the late Samuel Lucido, later met a young girl named Assunta in Rome. Twelve years later, here I was.

It seems that the Italians have not forgotten our sacrifice. I hope that the good relationship between our 2 countries continues. Of all European countries I want to visit Italy is at the top of my list!!!!!

It is even thanks to America that many Italians, thieves of bicycles, could then buy a Vespa and a Fiat Seicento.

WTF? LOL

"They must know the price the Americans paid to free our continent. Half a million killed in world war II. More than 7000 killed on D-Day alone, in Normandy; 25,000 killed to liberate Italy."

"Some of them rest in peace in our country, buried in Anzio. I suggest you visit that cemetery, and see the names of people unkown to you: John, Charlie, Robert, Ted, Howard... Men aged 20, 22, who gave up their life for our freedom."

Bravo Signore Berlusconi, BRAVO!!!

God Bless him for having the courage to speak the truth. His statement is a wonderful tribute to all of the soldiers who fought in the war.

Silvio Berlusconi gets it, and wants the Italian people to get it. What a magnificent speech!..

We now invite the Italians in a raid against an even more dangerous enemy -- France Iran.

I wonder if the Italians know how grateful we are to have them by our side in this fight. We won't forget.
