Women of Naples!
During the Second World War, the devastating bombings with which the allies relentlessly raged on some Italian cities put a strain on the citizens, blowing on the fire of the revolt ready to explode, especially in already hot cities like Naples. Thus, in parallel with the physical warfare that was blazing incandescent in the skies, the Americans and the British engaged themselves without holds barred in the psychological confrontation, the one they had the greatest concern for results. Thus, together with the bombs, they rained on the skies of Naples and other cities proclamations cleverly engineered to wear out the people and make them the most dangerous weapon to direct against the enemy.
In Naples, in particular, immediately after one of the bloodiest attacks, printed matter containing a singular appeal to the women of Naples was spread throughout the city by the allied planes.
In an Italy where women still did not have the right to vote, the Americans and the British, who were already putting their compatriots behind the wheel of warplanes, turned to the category they considered decisive for inflating the revolt against dictators. . A fundamental help for their projects, without which they would never have been able to achieve the goal.
Mothers and wives do not let them leave, this is the summary. You can!
Stop everything, even if you are not armed. You have means that you don't even imagine.
It seems absurd having reached the apex of that kind of violence. Yet women were the fundamental key to coming to a turning point. And the allies, already masters of progress that would have brought them to the top of the world, aware that only the enhancement of every human being in all its aspects can generate the positive evolution of a civilization, knew this.
It will always be the women of Naples, mothers and wives, who will come out of their homes in defense of men after the last recruitment to compulsory service by the Germans and the Fascists.
They will be the ones to ignite the spark that would have unleashed the four days of Naples.
