By listing these names of friends of Denis’s, you are just as wrong as he is. I’ve known Denis and his family from the day they came to N.Y. back in the 70’s and was also a Facebook friend of his, but like many of his childhood friends, knew nothing about what he was involved with until someone recently brought it to our attention. If my name was on that list, I would be at a Lawyers office getting ready to Sue the crap out of you because you are insinuating that all that are on that friends list MUST be bad people or criminal types just because they’re his Facebook friends. I’m a former NYC Peace Officer and I actually know a couple of the people who you listed and they are decent, law abiding people. Don’t just assume that anyone who is on his friends list have to be low lifes and/or undesirables. Maybe, just maybe, they also don’t or didn’t know about the recent activities of Denis and only know him as the nice guy he was when we were growing up and THAT’S why they were still friends with him.

We must be talking about another Deo. I’ve met Denis’ son, and his name is Deo as well….or Dio. Anyway, it doesn’t matter.

Believe it or not Daphne, he does have a son, from his first marriage. He should be 18-20 years old today. Strange enough, I found him once on Facebook….he’s not there anymore.

[Daphne – I didn’t say that Denis Catania doesn’t have a son – he’s 49, after all – only that Deo Catania is about his age and so can’t possibly be his son.]

Deo’s his son.

[Daphne – Hardly, unless he was able to father a child while still in nappies himself.]

@ Robert Callus:

I have read your blog post. I have one observation to make.

Joseph Muscat wasn’t misinterpreted by Norman Lowell. Norman Lowell simply spelled out the logical outcome of Muscat’s speech.

Not assisting immigrants at sea effectively means letting them drown.

Joseph Muscat should learn that pandering to elements in the extreme right might get him short-term gains, but in the long run, it is counter-productive. And this even if we were to disregard human rights and common decency, which of course we shouldn’t – they should be our primary concern.

Very good questions. Unfortunately, in Malta we have no journalists. We only have reporters (and mostly lousy ones at that).

It’s also crucial to expose their thinking as fallacious.

They’re stuck on Nietzche’s superman, unable to discern the inherent deficiencies, adopting it as a belief system.

The whole system they espouse takes shape from his conceptual disdain for a divinity distinct from man, proclaiming humans’ ability to become gods.

They propose it in the literal sense, via rock music, the internet and inside football stadiums.
They’re against communism and capitalism, but don’t mind mixing Soviet and Maoist emblems with celtic (read aryan) ornament.

They proclaim European supremacy in the arts, topping it up with a scattering of ufo’s, stargates and tunnels stretching from the Hypogeum in Tarxien to Stonehenge.

They romanticise nature to enforce their influence by implying nostalgia. This seals the nature of the bond between the leader and his youth.

Nature portrayed as a female diety, beautiful when intact, strikes the deepest chord.

In other words, they target any insecure seventeen year old who needs to get laid.

As soon as teenagers can read through this, Lowell and his black stars lose all credibility.

Which is why Jeffrey, Joseph e compagnia bella need a reality check.

Couldn’t agree more. Please take a look at this:

Some people have been too busy calling Lowell racist (including Muscat after his cheap populist statements). As if someone had any doubts. I would just call his bluff.

1) How specifically will you “clean” Malta of blacks without hijacking democracy and becoming a brutal dictator. Do you think you will EVER get a majority in Parliament that agrees on deporting people indiscriminately?

2) Where are you going to send them? Is it true you want to blackmail African countries with food – take our blacks back and we’ll give you food – and honestly believe it works?

3) Can you name the 50 traitors you intend to kill once you are in power? Just in case a potential voter happens to be a relative or a friend.

Editing out the nastiness is redundant. People would vote for his sort anyway. The mistake is to take them seriously, rather than present them as being one currant short of a fruitcake.
