Violent Femmes - Children of the Revolution

[kikthatcan]

War could only solve anything if we had control of the militaries around the world. But we don't. So war isn't for us, obviously.

[smartalek180]

Great song though

"War has never solved anything."

A whole lot of people in France, Denmark, and the Netherlands might disagree. Italy, too.

Ditto people in Algeria, South Korea, Burma -- sorry, Myanmar -- and Ireland.

And now Libya, and possibly, sooner or later, Syria.

Stupid oversimplifications are what never solve anything.

[WaywardJaybird]

@smartalek180 I live in Ireland. The war didn't solve anything. All the Troubles achieved were the deaths thousands of people.

Conformity and compliancy are the assassins of democracy. Open your eyes. Inform yourselves, question and demand accountability.

[BigBagsForRent]

Aw shit is this a 911 conspiricy video? It's a shame you had to ruin such a cool song by playing it over such bullshit.

[cookroger38]

takes me back to my youth love it

[mamapurplerainbows]

thanks for interesting remix

[69down]

so when is obama going to turn in his nobel prize????the war has expanded,or is it ok,because he is in charge?????

[zakman246]

@69down Why the hell does everyone blame OBAMA? Think about it, ignorant fucks. Who got us into the war? George Bush! Why? To steal oil. If he stayed in power do you think HE would take the troops out? No. As long as America fights the Taliban, they will continue getting resources. You know America is a country of war. Its all about "Donate to our veterans" blah blah blah. That'ss all you care about. War, War and oil. You'll stay that way as well.

[TheEssky]

Great stuff, thanks man. The most important battleground is NOT somewhere there in the world. It is WITHIN us all. Six billion battlegrounds that will decide the destiny of us ALL people. Take care. Esa

[hatorimatori]

Go Femmes!!!

[finallife]

I love this song, the Femmes ROCK!!!! don't really care for the video though.

[dannoj98]

@finallife can i ask why you don't like an anti-war video? should war be promoted instead?

[finallife]

@dannoj98 War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things; the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks nothing worth a war, is worse. And all it takes for evil to triumph in this world is for good men to stand by and do nothing. So in essence It’s not as if I like war or think it should be promoted, but that I think it’s naive the demonize all war no matter the cause. Peace be with you my friend, but hopefully not at the cost of your soul.
