Joan Baez - WHERE HAVE ALL THE FLOWERS GONE?





 A canção de Pete Seeger animou as marchas pela paz, nos anos sessenta do século passado. Oiça!


Where have all the flowers gone?
Long time passing.
Where have all the flowers gone?
Long time ago.
Where have all the flowers gone?
The girls have picked them every one.
Oh, When will you ever learn?
Oh, When will you ever learn?
Young girls
They've taken husbands every one.
Young men
They're all in uniform.
Soldiers
They've gone to graveyards every one.
Graveyards
They're covered with flowers every one.
Flowers
Young girls have picked them every one.
Letra e Música : Peter Seeger

Tenho a certeza que a media ocidental vai ocultar ou deturpar o conteúdo da intervenção do representante russo no conselho de segurança da ONU. Por isso copio para aqui, na íntegra, na sua versão inglesa:

A campanha de ódio orquestrada pelos poderes, contra a Rússia e cidadãos russos é nojenta:

«Western institutions everywhere are rejecting all things Russia with such a savage degree of xenophobia it really ought to shock anyone who was born after the 1800s. Everything from Russian athletes to Russian musicians to Russian-made films to Russian composers to Russian Netflix shows to lectures about Russian authors to Russian restaurants to Russian vodka to Russian-bred cats to Russian trees to dishes that sound a little too much like “Putin” have been cancelled to varying degrees around the western world.

Normally when the US and its allies are involved in a war they’ll at least pay lip service to the notion that they have nothing but good will for the people of the enemy nation, claiming they only oppose their oppressive rulers. With Russia it’s just a complete rejection of the entire culture, the entire ethnicity. It’s a widespread promotion of hatred for the actual people because of who they are.»

Uma argumentação pela retomada de um movimento fora dos alinhamentos militares, a Leste ou Oeste, numa perspectiva anti-imperialista e anti-capitalista.

Jonathan Cook, um jornalista inglês independente, sediado em Hebron (salvo erro) faz um artigo memorável, denunciando a hipocrisia e autoritarismo dessa gente, com uma «solidariedade vesga» só dirigida ao povo ucraniano, mas nunca falando ou fazendo nada em relação aos crimes de guerra horríveis que os ocidentais ou a arábia saudita (equiada e treinada por «nós»), que até hoje estão a cometer.
