Bloody Sunday, la domenica di sangue NOTE DI CULTURA: Bloody Sunday: il 30 gennaio 1972 a Londonderry (o Derry), nell'Irlanda del Nord, l'esercito britannico, in circostanze ancora controverse, aprì il fuoco durante un corteo per i diritti civili. Morirono 14 persone. Viene considerato da molti l'avvenimento che ha maggiormente stimolato la ripresa della lotta armata da parte dei repubblicani irlandesi. Il nome Bloody Sunday risale a un altro massacro avvenuto a Dublino il 21 novembre 1920 durante la guerra civile.
