Condenar las atrocidades del Estado de Israel no es de antisemitas o nazis, tampoco es ser anti-alemán condenar los crímenes de Hitler. Es ser coherente. La incoherencia pura es sostener que, como sufrieron a manos de los nazis y ahora Hamas les tira pepinazos, tienen todo el derecho del mundo a hacer lo que les plazca, como pasarse por el forro las leyes internacionales del mar.

Lyrics, music/vocals and production by Doc Jazz
This song is dedicated to Jannah and Masa Foqha, 8 and 10 years old, murdered April 29th 2010 by an Israeli army jeep. Anger at the Zionist murderers over their deaths was further increased by the absence of public fury and media attention, hence the Gil Scott-Heron inspired intro.

Manovra: niente tagli alla difesa
26 maggio 2010 - Tonio Dell'Olio
Manovra finanziaria anticrisi. I titoli si sprecano e i commenti anche. Manovra sulle pensioni e sul numero delle province, sugli stipendi degli statali e sulle regioni, persino sull’invalidità e sui politici che guadagnano più di 80.000 euro, sulla sanità, sulle case fantasma e sull’evasione fiscale. Mi sforzo di cercare i tagli alla difesa ma niente. Non posso crederci. Non hanno tagliato nemmeno le parate militari! Non hanno fatto nemmeno un passo indietro sull’acquisto dei 131 cacciabombardieri Joint Strike Fighter (JSF-F35) che impegnerà il nostro paese fino al 2026 con una spesa di 13,5 miliardi di euro, più della metà della manovra varata ieri dal governo.

[1932]
Lyrics by Jim Garland
Music: sung to the tune of "East Virginia" or "Greenback Dollar"
This song is about the frustration of a man out of work. His master has made a fortune but he is out of a job. The political parties continue their empty rhetoric but he's children are still cold and hungry. (Jim Garland, Sarah Garland Gunning's half-brother, was a contemporary of Woody Guthrie and Heddy "Leadbelly" Leadbetter. He was also one to the troubadour union organizers of the Industrial Workers of the World. He suffered from tuberculosis and took refuge at Leadbelly's home.
"Jim Garland said that he wrote this song about life in the coalfields of Appalachia...
Jim Garland was here in Leadbelly's house, and Jim's wife and their three children. Jim's children were sick lots of the time, and his wife took down with the fogs of TB. Then Jim got down with it, and for a long time he... (Continues)

ciao sono beatrice a me piace molto questa canzone xk trasmette tanto e soprattutto ti fa riflettere. beh io vi invito anche solo a leggere le parole xk sono molto forti, ma è quello che realmente è successo in Armenia, che non ha mai ottenuto l'indipendenza xk i turchi ritenevano l'Armenia una città sviluppata sotto il profilo economico. E vi invito a vedere la "MASSERIA DELLE ALLODOLE" xk è un film molto forte, ma ti fa riflettere molto a cosa è successo in Armenia, xk io non ho mai sentito parlare del genocidio armeno, ma da una parte grazie al film ho capito realmente cos'è. bea

Chanson italienne – In un anno e più d'amore – Gianni Nebbiosi – 1972
Tu vois, Lucien l'âne mon ami, il est des jours où l'on n'est pas trop satisfait de ce qu'on a fait. Par exemple, cette traduction de la chanson de Gianni Nebbiosi me tracasse. J'ai hésité à te la faire connaître, mais que dire... Faut-il la laisser de côté ou, – c'est finalement la solution que j'ai choisie, la montrer quand même. Au moins, elle passera en langue française et si quelqu'un trouve à y redire, qu'il y redise.
Oh, dit Lucien l'âne, ne te tracasse pas tant. Je vais te raconter une anecdote qui, j'espère, te donnera tes apaisements. Pris dans des tracasseries de l'existence, un homme (ce pourrait être toi, par exemple) se plaint et se demande comment tout cela va finir ? Son ami (moi, par exemple) le rassure et lui dit : « Ne t'inquiète donc pas tant, tout finit toujours par s'arranger, c'est sûr... Même mal. »

Sarah Garland Gunning (later Sarah Ogan Gunning) was the tenth of 11 children in a Kentucky mining family, at a time when miners were paid less than a dollar and a half for a ten-hour day and worked in appalling conditions. Her father, Jim Garland, was blacklisted as he represented the miners in their fight for better wages, forcing him to use aliases in order go work in the mines. In 1931, a group of Northerners called the Dreiser Committee came to Kentucky to investigate atrocities committed against the miners, and brought their plight to national attention.
Sarah Garland and her sister, Molly (later known as Aunt Molly Jackson) wrote and sang songs in support of the struggle at labor rallies. They were taken to New York by members of the Dreiser Committee to help raise money for the miners' cause.... (Continues)

The War of Labour: Emigration, Immigration, Exploitation, Slavery
Gaza: Israel attacks the Freedom Flotilla
While the number of victims is steadily growing, I learn from CNRMedia that also three Italian pacifists, and among them “our” Joe Fallisi are on board on one of the Freedom Flotilla vessels...I wonder if someone has news of him... (The Lone Ranger)
We had, and I say “we had”, in this site also “Hatikva”, the Zionist hymn and current national anthem of Israel. I myself had included it here for certain, particular historical reasons; but these reasons do not subsist anymore after an act like that occurring in these hours. Although this website is renowned for its uttermost plurality of views, it would be just the same if we included the Horst Wessel Lied. For this reason, I have removed the Hatikva page, with the hope that we can include in this site, one day, the anthem of a free and united Palestine where all can really live in peace. (Riccardo Venturi)
For the same reasons, the CCG/AWS Staff does not think it right that the song "Shir laShalom" should be included anymore in the "Basic Songs", although it is kept in the website. This for the absolute lack of sincerity of a State whose policy of warfare and aggression is not likely to come to an end. We wish it replaced with a true peace song, that is Angelita di Anzio; let it be dedicated to all Angelitas of Gaza. (AWS/CCG Staff)

Addio mia bella addio
![Addio mia bella addio](img/thumb/c2408_130x140.jpeg?1514209401)
Questa canzone fu scritta da alcuni volontari del battaglione toscano studentesco (Università di Pisa e Siena) che partirono per respingere l'invasione austriaca lasciando i libri e imbracciando i fucili, a Curtatone e Montanara il 28 e 29 maggio. Per quanto poco romantico possa sembrare è il primo esempio di coscienza popolare italiana, dove una classe medioborghese parte per il fronte (prima linea) professori e studenti accanto.
Di questi (erano poco più di trecento) ne tornarono una manciata, per poi vedere la Toscana cadere nel 1849 con la presa di Livorno (16 maggio), operata dal Granduca che vendette tutto il Granducato per un milione di Svanziche.
Mi sembrava giusto inserire il contesto storico.

Lyrics by Blind Alfred Reed
Album: Complete Recorded Works (1927-1929)
On Dec 6, 1907, several mines owned by the Fairmount Coal Company in Monagah, West Virginia exploded, killing hundreds of miners.... Twenty years later the memory of this tragedy was so strong in Alfred Reed's mind that he naturally associated his song with that event. The new accident, that resulted in more than 300 deaths, set up perhaps the most popular of many songs about mining disasters released during this era. The song itself stems from a recording made in 1924 by Vernon Dalhart, composed by Andrew Jenkins and based on an earlier piece of English origin ("Don't Go Down In The Mine, Dad").
It is interesting to note how Reed has modified the rhymes and meter.... The beautiful melody he employs also parallels its original in an interesting fashion: where the chorus of the Jenkins piece employs the subdominant,... (Continues)

Version française – L'INTERNÉ STÉRILISÉ – Marco Valdo M.I. – 2010
Chanson italienne – Il numero d'appello – Gianni Nebbiosi – 1972
Laisse-moi expliquer un peu comment la folie elle-même s'est introduite dans ma traduction. J'allais, vois-tu Lucien l'âne mon ami, traduisant au plus près, je m'en tenais aux temps pour ce qu'ils étaient... Tout allait droit et j'avais fini et même, j'en étais à insérer ma version dans le site... C'est dire, si j'avais fini. Quand soudain, tout a basculé. Les mots se sont mis à valser, le titre s'est décoloré et comme l'image dans un kaléidoscope enfantin, il a changé de formes et de couleurs.
Que me chantes-tu là, Marco Valdo M.I., mon ami, je n'y comprends strictement rien. Quel était donc ce titre qui s'est ainsi déstructuré jusqu'à disparaître et renaître sous une autre forme ?
Mais, Lucien l'âne mon ami, regarde le titre en italien... Il eût fallu le... (Continues)

Making History
![Making History](img/upl/saramarlowe.jpg)
[2002]
Lyrics and Music by Sara Marlowe
Album: A World to Win: Songs from the Struggle for Global Justice
"This is a song about the anti-FTAA protests in Quebec City, 2001 and the ever-growing international movement against corporate globalization and capitalism that was born on the streets of Seattle and has continued in every corner of the globe. From the fights against hydro privatization in South Africa, the G8 in Kananaskis, incredible uprisings in Argentina and demonstrations in Seville, to name but a few, it is clear that the movement is growing stronger. We are still winning! We will make a different history - our history!"

True Stories

The "War Resisters"
Kimberly Rivera was the first woman US soldier to have sought asylum in our country to avoid being deployed to Iraq. Since moving to Toronto with her family a year and a half ago, the 26-year-old Iraq War veteran and mother of two has confronted struggles both personal and political: estrangement from her family back in Texas, long periods of unemployment and, above all, the imminent threat of deportation. Kimberly would not have it any other way. To Canada's first female defector from the United States military, her adopted home is a "peaceful environment, somewhere I can raise my family, somewhere I can be me".
The American military calls people like Kimberly "deserters". To their supporters in Canada and the US, they are "war resisters."
In January 2004, Jeremy Hinzman, a soldier in the 82nd Airborne Division of the US Army, made his way to Canada seeking political... (Continues)

El adiós del soldado
![El adiós del soldado](img/art/t266489.jpg)
Soy mexicana. Aclarando, El Adiós del Soldado no es canción de Agustín Lara es anónima y muy antigüa, su género es el de Habanera y se la disputa por supuesto Cuba, aunque es sabido que es mexicana.
Nota.- lo correcto en la tercera estrofa es: "a la luz del vivac (campo) pálido y triste"...
Saludos a tan bello país.

Lyrics & Music by Sara Marlowe
Album: A World to Win: Songs from the Struggle for Global Justice
An anti-war song specifically about the about 'war on terror' - also included on the "ONE BIG NO" CD compilation released by Artists Against War
(This song was written just after George Bush started to bomb Afghanistan, in "retaliation" for the attacks on the World Trade Centre and the Pentagon on September 11th. It is also about how other struggles, such as the Intifada in Palestine and imperialism in Africa are all connected and a struggle against the same system - capitalism)
"Operation Enduring Freedom" AKA more war!

The United Nations approved sanctions on Iraq and the continued bombing - for over 10 years prior to the latest attack.
(This song was originally written for Bill Clinton and Madeleine Albright who are responsible for the death of over half a million children because of the sanctions they imposed on Iraq. And now George Bush is threatening to spread his "War on Terror" into Iraq...)

Debbo fare una precisazione. la bella canzone di Anna Identici inserita in ognuna delle tre puntate, non è dei fratelli De Angelis - autori del commento musicale del programma e di "Verde" sigla del medesimo - ma di G.Bertero e G.Guarnieri.
Approfitto per salutare Giorgio Quaglia, sua moglie e tutti gli amici che mi hanno affiancato in questa bella impresa.
