ICE Being Protested in Italy

Sunday, February 01, 2026

Hundreds of demonstrators gathered Saturday in Milan to protest the deployment of U.S. ICE agents during the upcoming Winter Olympics, unbothered by the fact that agents would be stationed in a control room and not operating on the streets.

Many Italians retain historical memories of their own country's experience with fascism. It seems natural they would find the presence on their country's soil of personnel representing America's iteration of that ideology threatening and deeply offensive.

ICE ruffians had threatened two Italian journalists last week which enraged their entire population.

News that DHS or ICE personnel coming to Milan or the Winter Olympics triggered this backlash.

Last year Italian (and Greek) dockworkers went on a strike to protest weapons being sent to Israel and they won.

The media in Europe is less controlled by the oligarchs than in the US so the people there are more attuned to global injustices than us here in America.

Can someone explain to me why the US Immigration and Customs agency should have anything to do with the Olympic Games in Italy?

Can you read? US sends reps from many agencies for security during the games.

Its funny people outraged ICE in Italy ....

when

""We are right to use knives...We have to do something, I mean, either stab people, take the money and run away."
A migrant goes on Italian TV and claims migrants have a right to stab and rob people, leaving the audience and panel in shock.

ICE and U.S. Customs and Border Protection employed at least 30 people with sexual and violent criminal histories in recent years, according to a report published Monday by the Ohio Immigrant Alliance with research from the Pacific Antifascist Collective.
At least 20 of those individuals committed offenses with underage victims, according to the report.
