Everybody here is blaming Zidane's headbutt to Materazzi on something racist that the Italian player must have told him.
As of now, nobody - not even the media - knows what really happened, or who said what. All we saw was Zidane's headbutt.
Just because Zidane's parents are Algerian, you assume that Materazzi told him something racist.
Well, that's quite a racist assumption. If you can't mentally assimilate Algerians and Muslims to everybody else in the world, then you really have a problem, folks.
Plus... I don't know what you people (especially envi_v) learn in your history classes in the USA, but Italy got over Mussolini and Fascism long ago. In fact, most of the Italian population was against him, and fought side by side with the Americans to free Italy from Fascism and Nazism. When the Americans got to Italy, half of it had already been freed by the Italian Resistance movement.
The few neo-nazis in Italy are regarded by most of us as what they are: IDIOTS.
