Phil Ochs - The War is over

[HalfBornUnicornFetus]

This song is still relevant today.

My son was born in 1967 and I wondered what kind of world I had brought him into . Phil Ochs was a hero then -- and now that the war in Iraq comes to its sad and welcome end. May peace prevail.

Phil Ochs-RIP. We are still fighting undeclared wars. Your lyrics send a strong message.

When I got my draft card, declaring me 1A, I went into my bedroom, got stoned and listened to this song about ten times.

In 1967-68 we had parties to celebrate the mythical end of a surreal war...

Perfect, except "serve your country in her suicide" should say "serve your country in her genocide."

[Seasass]
