God bless all the soldiers navy, air force, army, marines and coast guard. All branches are equal we all fight for the same reason to serve our country and to protect the ones we love. As a soldier of the United stated Army i leave in 18 days to serve my country and to protect my family and to join my brothers and sisters out there that have faught so hard already. Now its my turn to take there spot and join the rest as I do what i have always dreamed of doing. I am an American Soldier.
@greyarmywolf i respect your opinion but i have to say people out there are not protecting the one they love, nor protecting their country, because Iraq and Afghanistan never were a direct threat to America. However, bush wanted to change the governement so that he could get oil for a lot cheaper, but iraquis didn't want to, nor afghan people. The same thing happened to lybia, egypt and is now happening in syria, and almost happened in Algeria.
@greyarmywolf just so you know that you are not fighting to protect your country, or to help iraq and afghanistan. you are fighting to stop your president's hunger for money, as all of the united states president were like money launderer
@amineboys26 I understand what you are saying but just bcause that is there reason does not mean it is the soldiers reasons. We have orders so we do them they started the war and were stuck in it. I am going to serve and protect my country my friends my family and the ones I love and i will die holding that promise that I have made.
@greyarmywolf I understand i just hope you dont act like a racist fool with iraquis they had enough war and so did american soldiers. I consider american soldiers are not given what they deserve, they risk their lifes while the president gets his dick sucked in his fkin whitehouse. I dont hate america, just the president. Even facebook made more changes than he did. Fuckin snake liar.
@TheLolman77 You can't prove something exists if you have not seen it yourself, I myself believe in god, but you can't prove he exists or doesn't exist, but what we all know is their is obviously a creator out there that made all of us.
Thank all solders that have risked there life i respect you more then anybody and 4 the men who died for america you didn't deserve 2 die you deserve to live life with your family i would never have the guts u guys do..this may sound weird..but i do luv guys 4 what u do my dad was in the army and died i can relate i am sorry 4 all the people who went through what i did..and last but not leas thank you linking park 4 makin this song <3
this is officially my Grepolis alliances anthem. I LOVE LP!!!!!!!!!!
This song out of all their amazing songs is so far my personal favorite, even though i prefer their metal songs, this one and The Messenger are the best ones.
A lot of people don't like Linkin Park, even my friends, but I know that they are amazing and will never be left out of my memory. I will listen to their music even when Im 80. Probably not as loud though..:D Still, Linkin Park should have more likers and less haters.
@IanHorgo you idiot how the hell was the first cell born than eh. if your so smart than how come you dont know this. linking park knows theres a god they know there is unlike idiots who actually fight for something so stupid like a idiotic comment you know what i give up with your brainwashes idiotic mind alright so leave me alone and let me listen to the damn song
@superflywhiteguy360 I belive in god but this confuses me... they say tha jesus has never sined. what if his mother now i'm not saying she would have but what if his mother told him to kill someone for no reason if kills that person it he would of sined but if he didnt listen to his mother it would be a sin because he disobeyed her. so could some1 explain that to me
@TSMiller97 ummm well if he was told by his mother too kill its a sin if he does it but if he doesnt kill the person and disobeys her its not a sin for there is a very likely chance that he is innocent so his mother is the real sinner
@superflywhiteguy360 I have already run everything past him, you cant have a logical fight with him because he just avoids your questions and calls you a faggot or some other slur instead.
If i get 10 thumbs(ten thumbs so i don't get in the way of people who are already top voted) I will do a vocal cover of this and post it on my channel.
@IanHorgo and @TheLolman77 YOU TWO ARE JUST A BUNCH OF IDIOTS YOU RUIN THE COMMENT LIST GO PLAY WITH YOUR LITTLE FRIENDS YOU DUMB KIDS OOOOOOR STHU AND LISTEN TO THE SONG IM TIRED OF IDIOTS WHO CANT SEE THERE DIFFRENCE FOR SUCH A GOOD SONG
@superflywhiteguy360 Rage some more, plus all caps doesnt do anything... The fact that you raged at us over comments shows how much you pay attention to the song.
@superflywhiteguy360 screw u i get what hes saying but come on god aint real god is there just to give people hope it was blown way out of proportion!
@superflywhiteguy360 yeah ok come back with proof god exists il concede defeat then, brainwashed deluded faggots! here the lyrics to this song "say something that they might attack you for" wel i did and it worked.. 2 dickheads
@IanHorgo Dude, you have the right to belive in god or don't, personally i don't. But you can't say that you know he does not exit and insult people who belive in god. We do have the right to belive in what we want. God's existence can't be prooved by human beings but you can't proove the contrary neither. However, there's something that exists called "respect" and you obviously don't know it.
@superflywhiteguy360 Hey bro, Thanks for the constructive criticism but unfortunatly "grammer" doesn't exist and you should try with "grammAr" instead. And it ain't a grammar error but a typing mistake (i'm glad that you make me notice it) and it doesn't change my arguments either. Therefore i'm sorry to tell you that your criticism is just a fail.
PS : You can still come back with arguments and try again.
May all the fallen soilders out there Rest in Peace. We respect you fighting for a greater good. And for those still fighting, were praying for you and hope you all come back home!
@Tecknownoobs A greater good? Are you fucking kidding me? The war America took to the middle east is based on lieas and shit, the thing is your media is to corrupt to show you the truth of how it is there, they are not happy with you being there and honestly they have all the right to cause America is just fucking shit up over there..making shit worse
@chrisboatright1 Dont listen to this kid/guy, its funny that he is ridiculing America when the shit country he lives in is 10 times worse then us. You have no right to bitch at america over a youtube video, have your country come to war with us and when they can finally beat us then you can tell us what to do, until then whatever petty comments you make over a youtube video mean nothing to me.
@chrisboatright1 Just letting you know that I DO have a huge amount of respect for the soilders fighting. There out there still trying to stand for our freedom. No matter what reason there out there for it's not the soilders fault for being sent to war. Oh and by the way I live in Canada and here we have PEACE KEEPERS trying to keep peace in these countries and don't be telling me that were trying to make stuff worse.You shouldn't asume I'm in one country when you don't know.
i love and respect the marines but the war is the next thing i don't understand why supporting the troops and supporting the war has become synonymous cuz no poor men nor any soldier is benefiting from these wars . only the big corporations benefit when they destroy rebuild countries by our tax money . The US has the biggest military budget and has bases in many countries all funded by the poor american's tax money who is living in a country with about 10 percent unemployment .....
Does anyone know why he says amen? It is because they are linking war to religion. How all war start due to religion. Because of preachers and believers who are so ignorant telling us what they think is right and that they know what the holy lord wants. Their ignorrance starts these wars. Linkin Park are telling us about how religion is bad. If anyone disagrees then you need to research some history of why wars started.
Amen means Adamant or in a sense it means "This word is adamant or true". So I don't believe he is necessarily referencing religion, but rather the actual meaning of his message.
The message I believe they're trying to relay is that this war's sacrifice is being made by the poor or lower class and was created by the leaders for profit.
@elvebrothergenju At first that was i thought but theres more to it, if you read it like a poem, read in between the lines, linkin park are sining about protest of war, that they are standing up against the government for sending their troops into war when it's not neccesary. "they brush the dust of their bullet proof vest" That is saying that the troops aren't actually doing anything if afghanistan. Its a metaphor to say they're not doing anything beneficial to any country.
@iMaddox16 i disagree with religon being bad because it gives many of us something to hope for and gives us coruge to live our lives and are you saying that we shouldnt be religous? but i believe that alot of wars start because of religion but also many other things so you cant just assume that what we believe that what we choose to believe is bad and really neither you or I would be saying these things if not for we as people making choices that start wars. so really its us as people causing it
@dragonborn246 People take religion too far sometimes and twist their sacred words. But tell me this, why do so many people believe in religion? why do so many people trust the words of the bible? They are only words in a book, any man could have wrote them. None of us knows they are true. Plus i don't know if you realise but even linkin park say amen in this song. Its linking to religion and suggesting the fact that many wars are started due to religion. E.g. Hitler and the jews
@xXwerewolves5Xx no even thats an idiotic way to explain god, how is it possible for him to exist when evolution has proven him wrong? Religion is a load of crap and made up stories when we die were dead fuck god and fuck heaven
@IanHorgo Maybe god put evolution into place? Ever think of that? Also could you please explain the big bang theory, most bullshit thing i think ive ever heard... Not trying to force my opinion on any one but when you try to force yours someones gotta retaliate.
@TheLolman77 Nope i know ur not tryna force ur opinion i respect ur opinion and what ur sayin cant change anothers mans beliefs but come on open your eyes do you really think god exists? id like to believe in the idea of god but fuck that im not buyin it no possible way its true
@IanHorgo Why is the idea of a higher being creating all of this life, all of this unimaginable stuff crazy? You think that a random explosion created the ENTIRE universe? One day matter just said it was going to create a universe one day? For evolution why are there still monkeys, if humans came from monkeys there wouldnt be anymore monkeys.
@IanHorgo A fact is something that can be recreated in a laboratory, can you recreate evolution, something that supposedly takes millions of years to accomplish? Based on what you're saying i could take a bunch of twigs, compress them together for a million years and get a tree out of it.
@TheLolman77 Ok i was tryna be nice about it but u deluded brain washed piece of shit shut the fuck up god aint real heaven aint real hell aint real when we die we become a piece of decomposed shit in the ground for the rats to feed on if god was real u think the world would be so fucked up i cant believe im having this argument with a grown man i better be nice or SANTA wont come
@IanHorgo Santa has nothing to do with religion you ignorant dipshit, the fact that all you can do is swear at me and call me names over youtube shows how immature you are. The fact that you say you arent trying to shove your opinion down someones throat is complete shit. You have responded to any of the questions ive asked or stated and have just raged over them instead because you are ALWAYS right and i am ALWAYS wrong.
@xXwerewolves5Xx because we have have freedom to make choices. those choices affect who we are and if you can take the pain you have grown. if god came down and punished the person who did something to you or got rid of whatever happened, you would depened on him to get you through life you cant truly live. if you blame the absence of a god for all the pain then YOU are weak.
@iMaddox16 Yeah true and all wars started because of religion are just pathetic in my view, how sad that people are willing to die because of a bunch of made up stories an shit.. Ridicalous
@iMaddox16 i know it took a while to reply but becuase it gives us hope and the ability to live our lives in peace without true fear of death without fear of being forgotten... not to mention we get to tell assholes we'll see them in hell
@dragonborn246 But why is there religion? Why do you believe in religion? The bible contradicts itself. Adam and eve for example, if they were the first humans then who would their offspring have sex with? Because they would have all been family and it would have been insest which is wrong in the bible. Any man could have wrote the bible and too many people believe it without questioning it.
@iMaddox16 god may have allowed for the for our sakes or made others but they were not mentioned since they came when the children of adam and eve were ready
On December 26th (before if you can't make it) we will all watch IN THE END in honor of the greatest nu metal band ever’s glory. Let's give them the best present ever: the highest viewed video on YouTube!! Let's give them what they deserves and what Justin Bieber does not deserve to have!
Copy and paste to all LINKIN PARK videos and all music videos let's get this noticed quickly!
THUMBS THIS UP LINKIN PARK can remove justin bieber
my cousin served in the marines and got shipped off randomly one day back when we were dealing with iraq. i never really realised what this song was trying to say but now i know. i am so glad to be an american... GOD BLESS AMERICA
funny, this song doesn't condone the war, it doesn't support the war, it bashes the leaders who started it, the same leaders who tell us to support the war...this song is more about those who speak out against the war...a lot of you took the message the wrong way...
@d3ath3ater97 it's basically a song against war. it explains everything that goes on in the soldiers' minds, what they go through in battle, how leaders of the country talk on the TV about what goes on. focuses on the Iraq war mainly.
I love this song. It's seriously amazing. But the phrase 'When the rich wage war, it's the poor who die' annoys me. Whilst it may have been true when it was originally written it's simply not true these days. The people who die are the ones who have signed up to fight. No one in NATO or ISAF is forced into joining. Some still have mandatory service but you don't have an obligation to go to War. I serve with some incredibly wealthy people who do it because they love it. It's the best job ever.
This song is one of the best songs I've ever heard, it has such meaning, it makes you think and realise what people go through, thanks to all the soldiers!!
I was going to use this song for a psa project at school, but they wouldnt let me because mike cusses. I wish schools werent so stupid. The Lyrics dont matter nor does singing the right notes, as long as your heart goes into what you are singing is all that matters.
im sick adn tired of people steppin on me thinkin i dont care....FUCk THAT im takin my pride back i will no longer let people take advantage of me stand up for what you believe in people i know i will
I'm With Mike I'm Different but fuck it... Fuck the Barbies... The Perfects. I'ma be the one to carry on with blood of a thousand on my back. Death Won't stop me there's always going to be someone like me... The one that faces death and tells him I'll be back I got shit to do. Be You Don't Be Him, Her, Anyone. Be true to you. "Risk something, Take back whats yours" Your soul. Be yourself and say something "They might attack you for" Because remember I'm different And I'm Never Backing down.
Pray before you go to bed for these guys... Pray for their come back. And pray for their families and friends, pray that they will get a chance to see them again. And above all pray for the end of every war across the globe!
they surprised me.. this song is really intense and it brings a very important message: that war is started by rich men, but it's the poor who dies out there for their selfish decisions. Beautiful song LP!
I love how Linkin Park tells the truth that what attracts me to them they say the truth. Honestly its sad how were in war and we have a weak leader and some of us have lost hope thank you too the troops.
Two of my cousins are currently fighting in the war, I'm not completely sure, but I think one of them may be M.I.A. I haven't spoken to either for a very long time...this songs gives me comfort
@dbzlover2009 No, he doesn't mean it as a good thing. The whole line reads "It's ironic, times like this you pray, but a bomb blew the mosque up yesterday" meaning, where are they going to pray when people are even attacking the places of faith?
@dbzlover2009 He says that it's ironic that at times like these you pray for peace etc but a bomb blew the mosque up yesterday....therefore it is ironic....and he says it like it's a bad thing.
i love this song its awsome!

@dragonborn246 People take religion too far sometimes and twist their sacred words. But tell me this, why do so many people believe in religion? why do so many people trust the words of the bible? They are only words in a book, any man could have wrote them. None of us knows they are true. Plus i don't know if you realise but even linkin park say amen in this song. Its linking to religion and suggesting the fact that many wars are started due to religion. E.g. Hitler and the jews

@IanHorgo Why is the idea of a higher being creating all of this life, all of this unimaginable stuff crazy? You think that a random explosion created the ENTIRE universe? One day matter just said it was going to create a universe one day? For evolution why are there still monkeys, if humans came from monkeys there wouldnt be anymore monkeys.

@IanHorgo A fact is something that can be recreated in a laboratory, can you recreate evolution, something that supposedly takes millions of years to accomplish? Based on what you're saying i could take a bunch of twigs, compress them together for a million years and get a tree out of it.

@IanHorgo Santa has nothing to do with religion you ignorant dipshit, the fact that all you can do is swear at me and call me names over youtube shows how immature you are. The fact that you say you arent trying to shove your opinion down someones throat is complete shit. You have responded to any of the questions ive asked or stated and have just raged over them instead because you are ALWAYS right and i am ALWAYS wrong.
TheLolman77 1 month ago
@xXwerewolves5Xx because we have have freedom to make choices. those choices affect who we are and if you can take the pain you have grown. if god came down and punished the person who did something to you or got rid of whatever happened, you would depened on him to get you through life you cant truly live. if you blame the absence of a god for all the pain then YOU are weak.

@dragonborn246 But why is there religion? Why do you believe in religion? The bible contradicts itself. Adam and eve for example, if they were the first humans then who would their offspring have sex with? Because they would have all been family and it would have been insest which is wrong in the bible. Any man could have wrote the bible and too many people believe it without questioning it.

I love this song. It's seriously amazing. But the phrase 'When the rich wage war, it's the poor who die' annoys me. Whilst it may have been true when it was originally written it's simply not true these days. The people who die are the ones who have signed up to fight. No one in NATO or ISAF is forced into joining. Some still have mandatory service but you don't have an obligation to go to War. I serve with some incredibly wealthy people who do it because they love it. It's the best job ever.

@dbzlover2009 No, he doesn't mean it as a good thing. The whole line reads "It's ironic, times like this you pray, but a bomb blew the mosque up yesterday" meaning, where are they going to pray when people are even attacking the places of faith?
