brave


The blog is in black: Vittorio Arrigoni was killed.

Even with the motto "Let's remain human", it happened after this Italian activist, who used to work for the International Solidarity Movement (ISM) being kidnapped by a rogue Salafi militia which defy Hamas authority.

He was devoting to protect civilian lives, specially the hardship faced by the Palestinian fishermen and farmers under the Israeli siege, in the Gaza Strip. Pacifist, he acted as a shield with some comrades against violence. She lived there for three years. 

In spite of asking Hamas to free one of their mliitants in exchange for Vittorio’s life, he was dead before the deadline set. Firstly, he appeared in a video on the internet, blindfolded and handcuffed, with signs of beatings on his face.

It occurred in order to silence him, owing to his honest cronicles describing everything seen there. He was known due to the blog he would run write passionate as well as his collaboration for magazines and newspapers.

Unfortunately, less a gorgeous guy in the world, fighting for it. I’ve felt sad since I admire this kind of real hero, who is a man among (other) men... a catch, at least. Bravo!


By the way… Of course I also lament the horrible murdering of 12 innocent children from Realengo in their school (E.M. Tasso da Silveira). Due to the mental disturbs of Wellington Menezes de Oliveira, who used to believe taking part of some Islamic group, these last days have been sadder in Rio for many people - family, friends and professionals related as teachers.
