Senza mare - new album

sapore di sale
sapore di mare
un gusto un po amaro
di cose perdute
di cose lasciate
lontano da noi
ed il mondo è diverso
diverso da qui
Il tempo è dei giorni
che passano pigri
e lasciano in bocca
il gusto del sale Gino Paoli

I rifiuti di Israele nei polmoni dei palestinesi

Un servizio televisivo mostra le scene, inequivocabili per chi queste cose le ha già viste in casa propria, del proliferare di discariche abusive, che traboccano di big bag, i grandi sacchi ad uso industriale riempiti di polveri, scarti, rifiuti speciali, spesso tossici. Stavolta, non è Napoli, e neanche Caserta. Non è la Campania. E’ invece la Cisgiordania, ed il servizio televisivo va in onda su Al Jazeera, in lingua araba.... leggi tutto

[ita] La Palestina dice addio a Darwish


 

"Hanno diritto su questa terra alla vita: il dubbio d'aprile, il profumo del pane all'alba, le idee di una donna sugli uomini, le opere di Eschilo, il dischiudersi dell'amore, un'erba su una pietra, madri in piedi sul filo del flauto, la paura di ricordare negli invasori.

Hanno diritto su questa terra alla vita: la fine di settembre, una signora quasi quarantenne in tutto il suo fulgore, l'ora di sole in prigione, nuvole che imitano uno stormo di creature, le acclamazioni di un popolo a coloro che sorridono alla morte, la paura dei canti negli oppressori.

Su questa terra ha diritto alla vita, su questa terra, signora alla terra, la madre dei princìpi, la madre delle fini. Si chiamava Palestina si chiamava Palestina. Mia signora ho diritto, che sei mia signora, ho diritto alla vita"

 

 

Mahmoud Darwish

new immigration rules in europe !!!! WTF !!!!

EU lawmakers back controversial new

immigration rules

 

By JAN SLIVA
STRASBOURG, France (AP) — The European Parliament on Wednesday approved controversial new rules for expelling illegal immigrants from the bloc, overcoming opposition from left-leaning lawmakers and ignoring protests from human rights activists.
The move comes amid a tide of anti-immigrant sentiment across the wealthy bloc, with Italy blaming foreigners for a spike in violent crime and France grappling with tensions in the immigrant-heavy suburbs ringing urban centers.

Suspend EU-Israel Association Agreement

Hi,
I just signed the petition "Suspend EU-Israel Association Agreement".

We call on the EU to suspend the EU-Israel Association Agreement until Israel respects human rights and International Law.

The EU is Israel's biggest importer of goods, and its second biggest exporter. In 2006 the total traded between the EU and Israel amounted to 23.5 BILLION Euros.
The EU-Israel Association Agreement forms the legal basis for this relationship which gives Israel preferential trade terms with EU countries.
Article 2 of the Agreement states that these relations shall be based on respect for human rights and democratic principles which must guide  internal and international policy.

The EU is therefore obligated under this Article to suspend the EU-Israel Association Agreement whilst Israel is in breach of human rights.

I'm asking you to sign this petition to help us reach our goal of 25,000 signatures. I care deeply about this cause, and I hope you will support our efforts.

 

HERE IS THE LINK www.thepetitionsite.com/1/Suspend-EU-Israel-Trade-Agreement

 

Please sned it to at least another person

Regards

Motaz

NORMAL PALESTINE (Mostra)

Essendo Palestinese, vedo la mia città in un occhio diverso dal tuo, riesco a guardare la gente attraverso il mio cuore, colgo l’attimo per trovare ordine nel caos totale e un momento di pace in un paese che non l’ha mai visto.

10 scatti per dare una testimonianza sociale, che rende evidente una realtà nascosta dai media che manipolano la vita quotidiana.
10 scatti per viaggiare in una Palestina normale.

 

 

Dal 9 Maggio al 24 Maggio 2008 (aperta tutti i fine settimana dalle 16.00 alle 20.00)

[IT] Domenica 27 Gennaio a Firenze per GAZA

GAZA VIVRA’
Campagna per la fine di un embargo genocida
 
 
LA CAMPAGNA CONTRO L’EMBARGO CONTINUA
 
 
per decidere insieme le prossime iniziative
 
DOMENICA 27 GENNAIO, ore 10
Ex Scuola Elsa Morante, via Gian Paolo Orsini 44
FIRENZE
Assemblea nazionale
 
Non ci sono più parole.
Gaza è assediata, chiusa, sigillata.
Gli israeliani bombardano da terra, dal cielo e dal mare.
Uccidono sistematicamente ogni giorno, con le loro bombe, con i carri armati, con il blocco dei valichi applicato anche ai malati.
Ma questo non bastava: nei giorni scorsi siamo arrivati al taglio del carburante per mettere al buio la Striscia. L’embargo genocida non solo prosegue, ma si aggrava di continuo in un crescendo volto a piegare la resistenza del popolo di Gaza.
Ai bombardamenti, agli omicidi mirati come a quelli indiscriminati, si aggiungono i rapimenti di decine e decine di persone durante i quotidiani raid dell’esercito israeliano.
Le cifre globali ci parlano ormai di un massacro in corso, mentre mille storie individuali e familiari ci dicono quanto sia grande il dramma dei palestinesi rinchiusi a Gaza.
Queste cifre, queste storie sono ormai note e conosciute all’opinione pubblica italiana ed europea. La gravità della situazione ha portato alla rottura del muro del silenzio che regnava qualche tempo fa. Ma se il silenzio è rotto, la risposta è del tutto insufficiente.
Di fronte al dramma che si sta svolgendo non vi sono grandi mobilitazioni: tace la politica, tace la cultura, tace lo stesso movimento contro la guerra.
Eppure Gaza è davanti a noi ed è il luogo dove oggi si consuma l’oppressione più grande, l’ingiustizia più manifesta; ma anche il luogo dove in questo momento si concentra simbolicamente la guerra infinita americano-sionista.
E’ possibile non vederlo?
Noi pensiamo di no.
E’ per questo che chiediamo a tutti di venire a Firenze domenica 27 gennaio: per rilanciare la campagna contro l’embargo, per unire tutte le forze disponibili, per fare tutto quanto è possibile per dare sostegno alla resistenza del popolo palestinese.

URGENT PETITION to END THE HEALTH CRISIS IN GAZA

Since Israeli government declared Gaza as "hostile entity" on 19th
September 2007,Israel blocks delivery of essential medicines to Gaza
Strip and doesn't allow Palestinian patients to go outside of Gaza for
urgent treatment.

The United Nations, The World Health Organisation and Physicians for
Human Rights have condemned Israel for this situation, but Israeli
government is still continue to its policy and Palestinian patients
are slowly dying in front of the world.

All the victims of this humanitarian crisis are innocent civilians, and
many of them are children. For example in 14th November 2007, 6 months
old Palestinian baby Sina al-Hajj died because Israeli government
didn't allow her to cross Gaza border for geting treatment.
Palestinian MP Jamal Al Khudari said now there are more than a
thousand Palestinian patients in urgent need of treatment who are not
allowed to leave Gaza.

Please sign this petition to call the United Nations and the Israeli
government to allow the Palestinian patients having treatment outside
of Gaza: http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/save-gaza

Street photography, my little show

"Street photography is a type of documentary photography that usually features people in candid situations in public places such as streets, parks, beaches, malls, political conventions, and other settings." ...more

After one year of taking photos, I discovered what type photos I almost take, "STREET PHOTOGRAPHY", I just love to make unique shots, where the people are the main subject, sometimes with little irony.

Anyway I am not going to make it so long and I will show you some of my works and I hope that you will like it.

Please feel free to write your comments, suggestions or critiques, it's really important for me to know what the others say about my photos, because in general I am beginner on photography.

Most of my shots are taken with Leica M6 and Summicron M f:2 35mm, I love to use high speed films, like Ilford HP5+ and Kodak TRI-X 400. I use both colour and b&w films, but I prefer the black and white.

That all what I wanted to say. and how I leave you with the photos

Black and white

TRAVEL TO QALQILIA / VIAGGIO A QALQILIA

================================================
QALQILIA
================================================
Until 1995, about 80% of the population of Qalqilia (Palestine) were working in the agriculture sector and for Israeli companies. Starting from 2005, the commercial activities went down, because of the construction of the very discussed WALL, which make the access to Qalqilia so difficult. The conditions to get in agriculture lands situated behind the wall became impossible for the peasants of the city. And nobody found work in Israel.
After the elections of January 2006, the European union blocked his financing for the Palestinians Authority because Hamas won. Lot of civil employees didn't and still don't get the salary.
Fino al 1995, circa l' 80% della popolazione attiva di Qalqilia -Palestina- lavorava nel settore agricolo e per imprese israeliane. Dal 2003, le attività commerciali è collassato, a causa essenzialmente della costruzione del muro che ha reso assai difficile l'acceso a Qalqilia.
Le condizioni per entrare nei territori agricoli situati dall'altra parte del Muro sono diventate eccessivamente ardue, per non dire impossibili, per i contadini di Qalqilia. Infine, nessuna persona a Qalqilia trova più occupazione in Israele.
Dopo le elezioni legislative di gennaio 2006, l'Unione Europea ha bloccato il suo finanziamento all'Autorità Nazionale Palestinese. Numerosi funzionari non sono più pagati da allora.
