Soo friggin violent nightvision video intro, I wonder how many pieces those guys torned with the machinegun? Im just guessing if the arab elder in a red head dress is saddam hussein being followed before his arrest.
High praise to michael franti great music and outstanding lyrics! If only justin bieber sings like you, tsktsk.
i listen to this song then i remember he supports obama and i dont know what to think...maybe hes just fronting the obama thing...i dont know im confused :(
LOL people are asking where to get the song... if iTunes doesn't have it.. SUPPORT Franti and buy his album cause, it's on there... Don't know which one but, of the 6 Albums I have this song is there..
Thanks for putting this out there! We have to remeber that the madness has not ended for 100K troops and Millions of civilians. Stand up now and so no more to this pointless occupation!
the thing i dont get is the fact the taiban or whatever hate the canadians more than the us and they have some 5000+ casualtys yet where somewhere around 200?
very good song! I shows the gruel side of the war and could be a real eye-opener for some people out there. if they didn't threw away the keys for the locks on their eyes, I assume.
@Davidtrom - Thanks for putting this out there! We have to remeber that the madness has not ended for 100K troops and Millions of civilians. Stand up now and so no more to this pointless occupation!
Shocking video at the beginning,shows you what awesome firepower can do.Life is expendable,ask no questions,you have no lies,just a statistic.A suspected terrorist.

Light up your lighter........Obama is a LIAR........he didn't stop the wars, he is sending in 30,000 more troops to kill.......he gave bankers $12,000,000,000,000.00 ......wake up people....."Revolution comes like the morning"
@AndyRooification , just keep living in the dream world where you are-it must be nice. I'll tell you this, it's rough out here in the real world. Could I get some of that hashish you've been hoarding? I promise to give it a good home. People like you are killing our own troops that swore an oath to protect YOU-not personal finances of major political figures.
@AndyRooification In the first place? Bush, Cheney, Rumsfield, certain Joint chiefs of staff. Ever heard of the Afghan pipeline? Look it up. It was cheney's baby, but construction stopped when the violence kept halting efforts. Now? Obama has happily taken the reins in order to protect these and other individuals, criminally, for their illegal action. War crimes, to be exact. Instructing troops to ouse phosphorus on "anything that moves" is a violation of Geneva conventions...
@AndyRooification Bush & crew……actually the Federal Reserve banksters create war, finance both sides. One kinda has to know how our govt screwed up by giving private bankers the right to print our $, creating the multi trillions in US debt, allowing bankers to dictate govt policy. To believe that sending in more troops ends war faster…..this is rather ignorant. In order to end war FASTER, WE STOP SENDING IN TROOPS!!!!
@AndyRooification Oh, and good job with the harsh and coarse languaage. You sure got your point across like the literate and educated person that I'm sure you are. Why don't you enlist? It would really help bring peace to the region, and to bring our men and women home even faster. Every little bit counts, as they say!
at least we have a president who willing to try something instead of just killing our country because of what he believed. Im speaking of bush of corse
This song is letting you know whats going on in the world and he is saying that we need to bring our people back to this country and get them out of the other countries.
Great song indeed... The only thing I don't like is so many stupid people commenting... Come on!!! There is a dick on the statue??? Have you never seen a picture of Michelangelo's David??? You know... masterpiece of Renaissance sculpture? Do you know what symbolized when created? Or what could it symbolize know wearing a Kevlar vest in context of this song? I guess you have no idea what I'm talking about. Start reading. Or just watch some Discovery Channel if you can't!!!
This is eery....Great song, great vid, great pictures...except for the statue. Its scary that if you were a soldier out there they are watching you at all times, almost like its a video game.
