"The basic tool for the manipulation of reality is the manipulation of words. If you can control the meaning of words, you can control the people who must use the words." (Philip K.Dick)

 

"Beautiful, you're beautiful, as beautiful as the sun
Wonderful, you're wonderful, as wonderful as they come
And I can't help but feel attached
To the feelings I can't even match
With my face pressed up to the glass, wanting you
Beautiful, you're beautiful, as beautiful as the sky
Wonderful, it's wonderful, to know that you're just like I

And I'm sure you know me well, as I'm sure you don't
But you just can't tell
Who'll you love and who you won't

And I love you, as you love me
So let the clouds roll by your face
We'll let the world spin on to another place
We'll climb the tallest tree above it all
To look down on you and me and them

Don't let your life wrap up around you
Don't forget to call, whenever
I'll be here just waiting for you
I'll be under your stars forever
Neither here nor there just right beside you
I'll be under the stairs forever
Neither here nor there just beside YOU "

(Beautiful - Smashing Pumpkins)

"Before you slip into unconsciousness
I'd like to have another kiss
Another flashing chance at bliss
Another kiss
Another kiss

The days are bright and filled with pain
Enclose me in your gentle rain
The time you ran was too insane
We'll meet again
We'll meet again

Oh tell me where your freedom lies
The streets are fields that never die
Deliver me from reasons why
You'd rather cry
I'd rather fly

The crystal ship is being filled
A thousand girls, a thousand thrills
A million ways to spend your time
When we get back
I'll drop a line"

(Crystal Ship - The Doors)

"Manic Depression's touching my soul,
I know what I want,
but I just don't know how to go about getting it.

Feeling, sweet feeling
drops from my finger, fingers
Manic Depression's captured my soul.

Woman so willing the sweet cause in vain,
you make love,
you break love,

Manic Depression's a frustrating mess.
Well, I think I'll go turn myself off an' go on down.

Really ain't no use me hanging around.
Oh, I gotta see you."

(Manic Depression - Jimi Hendrix)

AGGIORNAMENTO

L'esercito americano ha finalmente ammesso l'uso di fosforo bianco sulla popolazione di Falluja.

Eccovi il link al blog (citato nei commenti del post precedente) in cui si riporta la notizia.

Ci sono già parecchi commenti, uno in particolare cita Martin Luther King, riprendo la frase che mi pare bellissima.


Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.

"My dad came into my room holding his hat
I knew he was leaving,
He sat on my bed told me some facts.
Son, I have the duty, calling on me
You and your sister be brave my little soldier
And don't forget all I told ya
Your the mister of the house now remember this
And when you wake up in the morning give ya momma a kiss
Then I had to say goodbye
In the morning woke momma with a kiss on each eyelid,
Even though I'm only a kid
Certain things can't be hid
Momma grabbed me
Held me like I was made of gold
But left her inner stories untold
I said, momma it will be alright
When daddy comes home, tonight

Whether long range weapon or suicide bomber
Wicked mind is a weapon of mass destruction
Whether you're Soaraway Sun or BBC 1
Misinformation is a weapon of mass destruct
You coulda Caucasian or a poor Asian
Racism is a weapon of mass destruction
Whether inflation or globalization
Fear is a weapon of mass destruction
Whether Halliburton, Enron or anyone
Greed is a weapon of mass destruction
We need to find courage, overcome
Inaction is a weapon of mass destruction

The skin under my chin is explodin' again
I'm getting stress from some other children,
I'm holdin' it in
We takin' sides like a politician an if I get friction
We get to fightin', I defend my Dad
He's the best of all men
An whatever he's doin,
he's doin' the right thing
It's frightening, but it makes me mad
Why do all of these people seem to hate my dad
An if that ain't enough, now I got these spots
I go to sleep every night with my stomach in knots,
And what's more I can hear mama next door
Explore the radio for reports of war
An all we ever seem to do is hide the tears
Seems like daddy been gone for years
But he was right,now I'm geared up for the fight
An he would be proud of me
If my Daddy came home tonight.

My story stops here, lets be clear.
This scenario is happening everywhere.
And you ain't going to nirvana or far-vana,
you're coming right back here to live out your karma.
With even more drama than previously, seriously.
Just how many centuries have we been
waiting for someone else to make us free?
And we refuse to see
that people overseas suffer just like we:
Bad leadership and ego's unfettered and free
Who feed on the people they're supposed to lead
I don't need good people to pray and wait
For the Lord to make it all straight.
There's only now, do it right.
'Cos I don't want your daddy, leaving home tonight"

(Mass Destruction - Faithless )

Stamattina il buongiorno me l'ha dato un servizio di RaiNews24 sull'uso di armi chimiche a Falluja da parte dell'esercito americano. Nel servizio si vedevano le bombe al fosforo bianco lanciate dagli elicotteri e poi si vedevano i corpi delle persone (parecchie donne e bambini) "bruciate" dall'agente chimico che reagisce con l'acqua delle molecole del corpo umano (i vestiti delle vittime erano intatti).




(immagine presa dal sito di Repubblica, purtroppo sgrana)


Inutile dire che gli americani negano tutto ed infatti si danno un bel da fare nel far sparire qualunque prova di quanto commesso, addirittura bruciando i corpi dei poveracci per far sparire le tracce dell'uso del fosforo bianco. Non sono bravo con le parole ma spero che il servizio abbia la visibilità che merita, almeno per indurre a riflettere chi continua a pensare che la guerra in Iraq sia stata giusta.
Io sono sempre più convinto che sia solo stata una riedizione di invasioni a scopo di lucro di cui la nostra storia è piena e che in realtà la "war on terror", come la chiamano, sia solo servita a buttare fumo negli occhi agli occidentali.

Il tutto per dirvi che dopo questa visione mi è tornata in mente una vecchia canzone strumentale:

(Dropping Bombs On The Whitehouse - Style Council)

"Viva l'Italia, l'Italia liberata,
l'Italia del valzer, l'Italia del caffè.
L'Italia derubata e colpita al cuore,
viva l'Italia, l'Italia che non muore.
Viva l'Italia, presa a tradimento,
l'Italia assassinata dai giornali e dal cemento,
l'Italia con gli occhi asciutti nella notte scura,
viva l'Italia, l'Italia che non ha paura.
Viva l'Italia, l'Italia che è in mezzo al mare,
l'Italia dimenticata e l'Italia da dimenticare,
l'Italia metà giardino e metà galera,
viva l'Italia, l'Italia tutta intera.
Viva l'Italia, l'Italia che lavora,
l'Italia che si dispera, l'Italia che si innamora,
l'Italia metà dovere e metà fortuna,
viva l'Italia, l'Italia sulla luna.
Viva l'Italia, l'Italia del 12 dicembre,
l'Italia con le bandiere, l'Italia nuda come sempre,
l'Italia con gli occhi aperti nella notte triste,
viva l'Italia, l'Italia che resiste."

(Francesco De Gregori - Viva l'Italia)
