"Here at home and throughout the world people are fighting back against the forces of wealth, privilege, and militarism — some because they have no choice, others because they would choose no other course but the one that leads to peace and justice." —
woww.... this has gotten pathetic... not to say sadd... john lennon would be disapointed of all of us for this... he fought for peace and love.... and what are we doing to our world.... and a dacade from the iraq war... it seems as we are gonna be in a notherone... comón people let's give peace a chance...
no offence to americans, and im not saying all of you, but how stupid can you be to elect bush for 2 terms, and next you guys will kick obama out and elect more rupublicans instead of democrats and this cycle of corupt pigs will never end, Like this comment if OBAMA should be elected for 2 terms, and keep the democrates in power.
@pimpadaisy He cheated to get in the first time. And you'd be surprised, at this point either party could be playing for the wrong side. But I agree, more democrats usually leads to a better, more peaceful America.
I am all for peace , but the stupid stuburn goverments all ways find somthing to fight about. If i was ever to run a country it would be switzerland lol
They only make war to gain riches for themselves , to kill off most of the population, to ruin the world to cover their own mistakes (blame others for what was planned and done by them killing 1000s. They want to rule! Not to help anyone! They are full of crap!!! If only they (the troops) would walk away from war, tell the government to do their own dirty work! What a wonderful world this could be! NO TO WAR! YES TO PEACE!!!
LOL peace what a wonderful fantasy you have and don't think I want war I don't but since we can't get rid of violence in the world I adapted to be able to survive what about you ???
@mhtube01 Do you realize how inhuman that sounds? I wouldn't call it pissing and moaning when peoples family members are getting shot at every day, fighting for YOUR freedom. So ATLEAST have some more respect for the brave men and women who have the courage to join the armed forces in a time like this. If someone you know died in a war, I don't think YOU would call your mourning "pissing and moaning." Even if you agree with the war, you have to understand that peoples families are dieing.
john lennon understood that if there was no war and hate then we wuld be able to concentrate on curing diseases and the world would be such a happy place and i wish he were around today....
the war in the middle east (past and present) has caused nothing but bad. if the US would have just left the middle east alone to begin with and instead used the money spent on guns and ammo on more important things like housing and education for every human being, not one person excluded, this world would be a MUCH brighter and intelligent place to live.
nice video it is really really good im joining the service in 2010 end into the begening of 2011 and i love the GIVE PEACE A CHANCE BY JOHN LENNON MAKE LOVE NOT WAR nice job!!!!!!
HOLY CRAP that last scene with the little boy running to his father arms............can't you see their is no end in the fightning we are destroying their future.Great video.
I remember seeing pictures of the dead soliders in Vietnam when I was a boy that my Grandma's neighbor son had taken while over there.They were horrific.Why do people want wars.I hope Iraq is over soon.
There will never be peace in Iraq, no matter what we do. It doesn't matter how long the U.S. stays there, or if we leave right now, there will ALWAYS be conflict. It's been going on for thousands of years, it's not going to end just because we want it to.
The only thing we can do is bring home our troops, to at least protect Americans.
More guff from SierraNichole. Iraq was at peace. It was the US/UK supporting Shia Militias for regime change. If you want the truth, ask an Iraqi not some American being fed bullshit from the Lincoln Group.
We destroy a nation and can never accept blame - we have to concoct some shit about 'those people' fighting for thousands of years. You could say the same about any country. BTW Islam is less than 1500 years old.
Do you really consider a dictator committing genocide against his own people "peace"? Saddam killed more Iraqis than the "US/UK" ever have by a long shot. "BTW" I have talked to a few Iraqis (in Iraq) and the vast majority of Iraqis have nothing but gratitude and respect for the soldiers who've liberated their country.
Well naturally, if you really did go to Iraq, you are going to keep convincing yourself that this war wasn't a mistake because you don't want to tell yourself it was a big waste of time. That is a natural human reaction.
Even though this song was meant for the Vietnamese war, it has a lot to do with this war. This POINTLESS,goddamn stupid and idiotic, war. So many people died because of George Bush, so many families ruined... it's amazing how idiotic he is, to put us there. John Lennon is the most influential person in my life, I have become a pacifist because of him. This war has caused so much damage...
@Makalorai102 oh yeah the thought of ridding the world of TERRORISM is stupid! u stupid liberals think the world can be so perfect but it's NOT POSSIBLE!! do u really think Bush wanted to go to war? hell no! it was necessary though! remember 9/11?! we did what was right u dumbass. prove me wrong. i dare ya. u won't cause u make shit up. if u try i will shut u down.
@mhtube01 this video is a display of Iraq...you know, the war that was "necessary" according to you. you know the one where the weapon reports were fabricated? Funny how democracy protests are spreading through the middle east with the exception of Iraq and Afghanistan, what a coincidence.
@mhtube01 The message of the song is that no one should fight regardless of beliefs or nationality. Everyone should be able to live in harmony without attacking each others customs, beliefs, etc. If you don't agree with that then you are un-American because America is about freedom for all people. The fact that you can say anything is impossible just shows how little faith you have in our country's abilities to make peace.
Yes both sides need to agree for peace to happen. To make it worst theres more than just 2 sides. But who ever has more power has greater effect and should have more responsibility especially with there actions. I do feel however that we can archive peace if one side at least talks with words instead of bombs to achieve peace. Its a much more time consuming process but in the end if your patient you will eventually get peace:) If everybody was like this wars will rarely happen.
The United Nations was going to deal with this, there were no weapons there, we did not have to go there. I dont believe it at all. i dont believe a word this administation says
i said this before, but many of you peace loving hippies still don't get it. In order for peace to work, both sides must except it and not just one. It won't do us any good if only we want peace, the other side must also want it.
Oh my God, what a powerful ending. I just hope that his daddy never has to go back to war and that he and all of the other kids of his generation can find out that wars (like Iraq) only leads to more grief and hatred. We truly need to give peace a chance for a change.
By staying there we are making more enemy's. Everyone is wrong to me, but how can we make things better? We leave now thats how. We ruined and maid the country worst. O another 911 911 911 come on!. If you keep reflecting in the past we cant move on to make the future a less violent place to live. Leave from the county and if your still worried about attacks, use the money that was wasted on the war and use it on defense.
however bad it is the war is necisary...as far as im concidered we pull out now we give an entire country to terrorists...george screwed this war up...pull out we give terrorists a base for more 9/11s dont we lose more of our own...we cant win...we just cant win...
Its funny. Both sides think there soooo right. U got the u.s thinking that going over there for oil killing alot of civilians and giving the children candy to make up for it is the right thing to do. Also you got the terrorists mis interrupting the Quran and blowing them selves up to go to heavan???
All I could say from all of this is that we humans arnt gonna be on this earth for very much longer.
And history repeats itself..with the same multibillionaire scoundrels and corrupt politicianas froma a siames "party"...meanwhile...working class kids are being sent to do the killing and dying so the rich can attempt to -unsuccesfullly- control the Middle east oil and rob the entire world at the pum,p every day..and every second.
Only to face the fact that Iran & Syria will gain power and indirectly overtake Iraqi oil fields, thusly gaining the wealth necessary to generate future terrorist activities. In result, American allies in the Middle East will be put into jeopardy and the United States itself will also be subject to the great possibility of future terror attacks.
