Gaetano Saya (Messina, Italy, 1956) is a far right Italian politician, leader of the National Right neo-fascist party.

Saya has claimed he was a former member of Gladio, NATO's stay-behind anti-Communist network during the Cold War, involved in Italy's strategy of tension during the "Years of Lead."

Gaetano Saya was charged in November 2004 of white supremacist hate speech diffused through his party's website.
