Video Description:
Tribute to Chilean Political Singer and activist Victor Jara, murdered by dictator Pinochets troops on 15th September 1973. This followed the military coup on 9/11 1973 which overthrew the democratically elected government led by Salvator Allende. Allende was found dead in La Moneda (Presedential Palace) beside an AK47 given to him by Fidel Castro, allegedly after commiting suicide. Victor Jara, after singing a political song to other prisoners in the National Stadium, has his fingers and ribs smashed by Pinochets troops. Sung by Christy Moore.

It's a great shame ... ( 3 months ago by walaa925)

It's a great shame he had to go. But i think he left to send us a message to never stop fighting imperialism and facsism i love the translation of his last poem it brings tears in my eyes when he says
"What horror the face of fascism creates!
They carry out their plans with knife-like precision.
Nothing matters to them.
To them, blood equals medals,
slaughter is an act of heroism"

Whoah! Nice work ... ( 3 months ago by JerryX68)

Whoah! Nice work mate. That moved me to tears. I met Joan Jara - a wonderful woman - a couple of years ago and she talked about Victor's 'gentle kind of strength'. More recently, I had the pleasure to meet Carmen Castillo, Miguel Enriquez's partner, and she said much the same thing about Miguel. The same could be said about El Che, about Partrice Lumumba, Dr King, Olaf Palme, Petra Kelly and, of course, Salvadore Allende. It's hard to pin down what that quality is but it's there alright.

Im not a Pinochet ... ( 3 months ago by DANORES)

Im not a Pinochet fan, but i gotta say that the destruction of Victor Jara's hands is a commie myth. Recent studies and the lawyer defender of Victor Jara family today, just admitted some days ago that his hands were never taken off as the say. Nothing happened to his fingers. Though he was killed by more than one bullet, belive me that. Anyway, the song is beautiful. Greetings from Santiago, Chile.

"Ay canto que mal me sales
cuando tengo que cantar espanto
espanto santo el que vino
como que muero de espanto
de verme entre tantos y tantos
momentos, momentos del inifinito
en el que el silencio y el grito
lo que veo nunca ví
lo que he sentido y siento
harán brotar el momento."
XI 73
Ultimos escritos de V.J. antes de ser asesinado en Estadio Chile, hoy Estadio Victor Jara.

Estos irlandeses vienen a dar ejemplo de tolerancia y de no violencia, cuando su país ha vivido crimenes espantosos entre hermanos de sangre por decenas de años.
Averiguen las verdaderas causas que terminaron por el asesinato de victor jara y vean las dos caras de las moneda antes de cantar webadas y promocionarlas como los valuertes de la tolerancia, la lucha por la justicia y la paz mundial.

Maybe. Sometimes ( ... ( 2 months ago by clinthotvedt)

Maybe. Sometimes (And when it comes down to fighting violent fascists, usually) it's better to fight fire with fire. A group which is brutally oppressing you isn't going to listen to your well-rounded arguments why they should stop doing that, in which case it's better to pop some rounds to protect yourself and the ones you love.

The irish people are the people of the soil they have sympathy with the exploited peoples of the world. Their skills and art of Irish somgs they share as a gift to the oppressed of the world.
God bless the Irish people.

I believe the CIA ... ( 2 months ago by jokerswildnyc)

I believe the CIA had a hand in the coup, but the real blame must be placed on Allende who allowed the generals into his cabinet. The cordones were ready to take control of the state, but were prevented from doing so by Allende and a left that supported him/the UP. Real worker's power comes from below, not from above. Allende made the military powerful by using them to "restore order."
