Where do you find this stuff? Here I thought Pound's broadcasts got deep-sixed when they threw him in the nuthouse.

Can't find honest anger like this in a poet today. They all get grant money and we know who doles that out.

[QUOTE]...When a Brooks Adams writes five volumes that would help you to see it, six copies reach England. You have LOST the health of the mind. God knows how the scattered handful of Englishmen still in England can still speak one with another.

I see NO remedy in your parliament. I don't mean as parliament. I mean in the personnel. It is your problem. You do not NOW even elect your own parliament. Whether WITH an election you could get anything save old dead meat, I do not know. During the last war a few men had a glimmer of instinct. On whatever formula, they called it pacifism. Was it? All of 'em I ever met were pugnacious. Was it an instinct to save the butt end of the RACE by not fighting? Is it a mistake to combat Germans by force?

Is there a RACE left in England? Has it ANY will left to survive? You can carry slaughter to Ireland. Will that save you? I doubt it. Nothing can save you, save a purge. Nothing can save you, save an affirmation that you are English.[/QUOTE]

In the year 1959 when Ezra was released because of supporter's from St. Elizabeth's in the District of Criminal's, and shortly after celebrating with supporter's that he flew to Italy. When the plane landed and he stepped on the ground he gave the fascist salute, and when asked by a reporter what he thought about his home country Ezra stated "All of America is an Asylum!" Ezra Pound and Jefferson Davis both had the horrid misfortune to have suffered torture at the hand's of the Feral government. As having been put in a box/cage's in the Sun. Jeff Davis was put in a box on a wagon and rode around for days in it, I remember correctly, and then Ezra was put in a small cage out in the Italian Sun till he collasped. The treatment of Davis and of Pound who was/is a great American Freedom Loving "Poet", and by calling him a Facist, as to demonize him making it okay for the Feral Govt's torture of him in 1945 and humilation of being in a Mental hospital, speaks for it's self.

The full text of the broadcasts are available in [COLOR=Red][I]Ezra Pound Speaking: Radio Speeches of World War II[/I][/COLOR], Edited by Leonard W. Doob on Greenwood Press, 1978.[/QUOTE] I have borrowed this book on many occasions, but am presently looking for reasonable priced copy. If you read it, I promise many, many pleasurable and provoking evenings. Master Ezra had a way with words.

Gibbon,

I was too busy reading Pound to notice the URL. I plan to check the local library tomorrow. I had no idea his radio speeches were ever published. Thanks for the heads up.
