The Race War of Black Against White
by Paul Sheehan

The longest war America has ever fought is the Dirty War, and it is
not over. It has lasted 30 years so far and claimed more than 25
million victims. It has cost almost as many lives as the Vietnam War.
It determined the result of last year's congressional election. Yet
the American news media do not want to talk about the Dirty War,
which remains between the lines and unreported. In fact, to even
suggest that the war exists is to be discredited. So let's start
suggesting, immediately.

No matter how the crime figures are massaged by those who want to
acknowledge or dispute the existence of a Dirty War, there is nothing
ambiguous about what the official statistics portray: for the past 30
years a large segment of black America has waged a war of violent
retribution against white America. And the problem is getting worse,
not better. In the past 20 years, violent crime has increased more
than four times faster than the population. Young blacks (under 18)
are more violent than previous generations and are 12 times more
likely to be arrested for murder than young whites. Nearly all the
following figures, which speak for themselves, have not been reported
in America:

* According to the latest US Department of Justice survey of crime
victims, more than 6.6 million violent crimes (murder, rape, assault
and robbery) are committed in the US each year, of which about 20 per
cent, or 1.3 million, are interracial crimes.

* Most victims of race crime - about 90 percent - are white,
according to the survey "Highlights from 20 Years of Surveying Crime
Victims", published in 1993.

* Almost 1 million white Americans were murdered, robbed, assaulted
or raped by black Americans in 1992, compared with about 132,000
blacks who were murdered, robbed, assaulted or raped by whites,
according to the same survey.

* Blacks thus committed 7.5 times more violent interracial crimes
than whites even though the black population is only one-seventh the
size of the white population. When these figures are adjusted on a
per capita basis, they reveal an extraordinary disparity: blacks are
committing more than 50 times the number of violent racial crimes of
whites.

* According to the latest annual report on murder by the Federal
Bureau of Investigation, most interracial murders involve black
assailants and white victims, with blacks murdering whites at 18
times the rate that whites murder blacks.

These breathtaking disparities began to emerge in the mid-1960's,
when there was a sharp increase in black crime against whites, an
upsurge which, not coincidentally, corresponds exactly with the
beginning of the modern civil rights movement. Over time, the
cumulative effect has been staggering. Justice Department and FBI
statistics indicate that between 1964 and 1994 more than 25 million
violent interracial crimes were committed, overwhelmingly involving
black offenders and white victims, and more than 45,000 people were
killed in interracial murders. By comparisons 58,000 Americans died
in Vietnam, and 34,000 were killed in the Korean war.When non-violent
crimes (burglary, larceny, car theft and personal theft) are
included, the cumulative totals become prodigious. The Bureau of
Justice Statistics says 27 million non-violent crimes were committed
in the US in 1992, and the survey found that 31 per cent of the
robberies involved black offenders and white victims (while only 2
per cent in the reverse).

When all the crime figures are calculated, it appears that black
Americans have committed at least 170 million crimes against white
Americans in the past 30 years. It is the great defining disaster of
American life and American ideals since World War II. All these are
facts, yet by simply writing this story, by assembling the facts in
this way, I would be deemed a racist by the American news media. It
prefers to maintain a paternalistic double-standard in its coverage
of black America, a lower standard.
