WAR : WHAT IS IT GOOD FOR?

[DerZerstorer119]

can you make this song relate to WW2? try, and i bet you cant? but this to Vietnam? than it makes scenes, you have to put this song to the some wars, not all wars.

[pearcake]

Fuck american imperialism...

[wrestlingvideos5]

This song is actually made for the Vietnam war but it could work for any war I guess

[EVILHAMSTER12]

@PurePower025 @ANONIM143 Treason....SO He's your logic Disband our military and be invaded,while because we are not present in other country's the world crumbles around us?Do either one of you know the presidents Phone number so i can call him and tell him of this wondrous plan?

[AviationguyAlex]

I have pity for those who think that they are anti-war and not anti-troups. There is no difference. We were attacked on our own soil on 9-11-01. This is a fact. The United States had no choice but to retaliate and bring those who did it down. It is thinking like yours that has brought us Iran's Nuclear state. We are seen as a weak country. All I can hope and pray for is that in 2012, the right person will be elected and the wrong one removed from office.

[coguar0]

@AviationguyAlex I am afraid that it is not that simple. What is the connection between Iraq invasion and 9/11? What about the alliance with Pakistan? and Colin Powell's false intelligence? there is always a choice unless you have already made it and decided to ignore the facts. And that choice was WRONG because the world is not a safer place.

[VisionofLoveandPeace]

We were all created by Love and from Love. We all have the spiritual capacity to choose to Love and to have Peace...the choice to follow the sheep who choose to fall off the cliff remains in the choices of humankind. Choose on what we were created by--Love--and there will never be war again.

[cw321000]

unfortunatly,dont denyy this either, we are not humans without war

[legodudekill]

War games(FirstPersonShooter) are fun and addicting,but in real life war is like so deadly,i mean think about it,

1..A-Bomb-very deadly

2..laser guns(the military is currently testing them)-even more deadly

3..toxic gas-very painful and deadly

4..flame throwers-extremely painful and deadly

hydrogen bomb- killusall!!!!!!!!

but, i so totally agree with kolinmartz,war is what humans need to do.witout war, Earth would be very boring

[Kommradable]

@legodudekill

no one uses any of those dumb things besides bombs.

[cheatacheeta]

sad

[ilovecori88]

you realize america wouldnt exist without war

[kolinmartz]

liberty has a price but keep in mind they don't just fight for america they fight for their family friends and the people around them

[kolinmartz]

war is part of human nature without it we wont be able to move on without wars the world is so stagnant no tomorrow no future without war human civilization collapse the economy will collapse without it there is no new medicines no new tools no art the world will be a boring place without it and no mater how we try there will always be wars nobody can stop it it's inevitable but even though we can't stop it we can minimize the damage sorry man but that's just how the world works

[fern467]

Arivas what the hell did you not see the children in the children and you say war isnt all that bad? wow

[MrTheben96]

wait am i the only person that got this song of the movie toy soldiers

[GADCL4]

Fighting for peace is like fucking for virginity - but immeasurably less pleasurable.

[arivas713]

war, what is it good for? absolutely nothing!......except defeating the nazis and imperial japans oppressive goose stepping march in their attempt to exterminate half of the worlds population and force the rest under their tyrannical yoke....say it again huh! what is it good for?....

[Polszenager]

@arivas713

don't forget about Soviet Union and their pupils, yes all the Terrorist Gropus in this era were trained as a "students" in Moscow, La Habana, Venezuela, etc.

[NorthstaRider]

What is it good for? Its fucking fun. Freaking hippy peace freaks...

[WeShallBurnInHeck]

@ann54253 are you live in uneducated country that no teach you grammar

Or rather:

My apologies but I have absolutely no idea what you're saying. Therefore, I ask that you please learn more about English sentence structure and grammatical devices if you wish to converse with me. Thank you

[gomets3277]

war never solved anything.......except for slavery, oppression, genocide, communism, facism, and nazism....now for terrorism!

[bamamal]

It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder.

Albert Einstein

[DDominic82]

Don't argue some ppl can't and won't read between the lines. I served as a paratrooper in the US Army and u have to think from a political agenda and not submit to being a mindless Pitbull. If you asked alot of the soldiers on a personal basis. They'll tell u the real deal if they haven't been brain washed but to save their careers and not being branded un american for voicing their 1st amendment they'll keep silent. Oil grab blew up in Bushs' face. Didn't know how to get out of a bad situation.

[MillyWeeble]

Fighting for peace is like fkin for virginity...

[TehChocco]

@1erdling1 quite frankly your not fighting terrorism, why are you in iraq anyway? i can honetly tell you when osama and his fellas look at america they can only laugh. your soldiers are sitting ducks, ther doing shit in iraq and afghanistan and al queda can just sit ther and improve ther improvised explosives devices. your soldiers are giunnea pigs. i understand you cant just sit and do nothing but ther has to be a better solution than iraq and afghansitan.. its gettin nowhere

[DonFormica]

I love the I support the troops but am against the war meme . That's bull the troops are enablers not defending anything but OIL interests. They are either dupes or corporate thugs. We are the invaders. The myth is is there is honor and glory in war.

There isn't, just rich people making poor people die.

[TheSwampcritter]

war i good cause the french cant do it and if we get in a bad situation we have about 2600 more nukes than any 1 else

[p0wer5000]

know what s fucking funny as hell is this song made me WANT to join the army when i was a lil kid and screw this song without war we would are be nazis

[Gootch694u]

you are an idiot. The nazis declared war on Europe. Had they not done so, millions would have lived. Think before you engage your dummass mouth.

[Stoptheinsane]

Who benefits from WAR?

RICH ELITES

[halo3guy50]

Wars good for taking care of the population.....

[MrChief56]

This is a pointless war, why is the U.S. so scared of Iraq when they have the toughest damn army in the world and homeland security defense system. We all know the U.S. has satalites ready to nuke the hell out of everyone it wants. Just get out of there and rebuild the economy and peoples needs damn it.

[RonRonGun]

LET'S ALL BLOW UP THE FU**ING WORLD Then the war ends.

[luger188]

war sickins me at 2:19

[1erdling1]

the war is an answer of the world on the terrorism of the "bad people"

and without war more people wil die because there is no motivation to search for better medicine

OF COURSE WAR IS BAD; BUT IT IS NESSECARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Gootch694u]

@1erdling1 spoken like a true stupid human

[1erdling1]

@Gootch694u

then tell me what do you think would happen if all nations stop fighting against terrorism?

[normanroxrox10]

very good vid very good =]

[ANONIM143]

"Edwin Starr's song to images from Iraq. An anti-war video but NOT anti-troops serving America." so is a video against an ideea but not against the people who make that ideea become reality, isn't it ? You (U.S.) should wake up and realise what you are doing to this world.Of course this wont happen, but I dont blame the people I blame your leaders.

[Duckula92]

he´s right

[ky13090]

and who are you? you don't live here and you sure don't know what the hell is REALLY going on. what have u seen, were have u been, it says it all, you have seen nothing! here is the difference from were you are and here in my country, we help when no one else will. you name a war that was "perfect" and a country that dose what is right with the "full" support of everyone. NONE (im not here to bash anti war, im doing a project on it and you so happen to bother me)

[BlueChipNinja]

@ANONIM143 We are all victims of culture.

[PurePower025]

@ANONIM143

Unfortunately, soldier people are to blame for war.

Here is my logic: Man A tells Man B to kill Man C, and Man B does it. Who is responsible for the death of Man C, who gets the blame? Man A or Man B?

Answere is: Man B. Because Man B CHOSE to do it!

I am anti-war and I am anti-troops, I say let Man A do his own fighting and all the people who are Man B go farm or do something else.

[DerZerstorer119]

@ANONIM143 It means that after a country or group of people go to war, good men and women go and fight. Then you cant be against the men and women risking there lives for something, you have to blame the leaders who wanted to go to war.

[davidlui96]

while my cousin was in iraq someone was trying to get something from the humvee and accidentaly turned on a CD player and dis song came on and it was played throughout the fire fight..lol

[FREEW0RLD2012]

I'd like to ask this YT user 'TheLightMomentCOM' just how troops being in Iraq are "serving America"? Did I miss it when Iraq attacked the US?

[Rock1Golem]

yes, common misconception, that was an entirlely different country, not Iraq.

[ky13090]

they are "in" iraq. we are not fighting "iraq" dip shit

[FREEW0RLD2012]

I think the Iraqi's would have another take on it.

[FREEW0RLD2012]

During WW11,the Jews in the US were Nearly going to have done to them what Hitler was doing.When WW11 ended,under "Project Paperclip",over 1500 Nazi's were WELCOMED and brought into the US.One of whom started up NASA,and another,the CIA.Nazism didn't die with Hitler,it simply changed locales.Of course,all under the nose of the ignorant US masses.

[Rock1Golem]

I beat up nazi's on site, and that's good enough for me.I know it's an oxymoron but I will NOT tolerate intolerance.

p.s.War seems like it sucked a lot less before the invention of the catupult, it still sucked, just not as much, at least it was a more honest fight, a fair fight(mostly).I mean once in a while some dude on an elephant would charge you, causing you to realize that at that moment you were completely and utterly screwed, but for the most part it was fair.

[FREEW0RLD2012]

Nazism isn't "intolerance" it's a philosophy and the US had long ago subscribed to it.

[Rock1Golem]

???I'm inclined to say you're a looney.

[FREEW0RLD2012]

Rock1Golem,would you be directing that comment at me? Many times people post and do not say who they are replying to.Cuz I KNOW your not talk'n about me.

[mikekayaksfast]

LOL elephant comment

[Fickotincek]

what is bad about war???

eeeeeee, it cleans up the mess,

it get rid of the bad people,

and we have the best songs on war!!!

I`m sorry, but I love war!

[WeShallBurnInHeck]

Death, destruction, despair, civilian casualties, nuclear bombs, the ending of civilizations.

One thing though... Sometimes...THE BAD PEOPLE WIN!

[kolinmartz]

@WeShallBurnInHeck there is no such thing as good or bad it doesn't matter what you are fighting for but it doesn't change the fact that you kill people but still it's inevitable wars cant be stopped it will always be there forever wars after wars death after death in other words population control

[normanroxrox10]

ok then =S

[fabiangampig]

you've ever been in one?!

damn idiot.

[FREEW0RLD2012]

So......when ya sign'n up dickhead?

[vrealrad]

only pussies dont sign up

[FREEW0RLD2012]

Oh YAWN!

[cablebeach1]

I said the Mexicans/Spanish didn't want to give them places where water is? Should you consistently buy land from them and they won't give you what you need? Native Americans sometimes attacked us. We now give Native Americans rights on the America today. So why argue now?

[LCstewart]

good thing I'm in canada ^.^

[FREEW0RLD2012]

Ever hear of the NAU? Don't feel so safe that your in Canada-this thing is GLOBAL.

[normanroxrox10]

at 0:55 that must of made a big boom

[FREEW0RLD2012]

How are troops in Iraq "serving America"? Humm?

[normanroxrox10]

i know eh?

[normanroxrox10]

nice vid good coice of pics

[IL0VEKESKIN]

huuh, ooh.. he he he he.. makes me smile everytime...

[1stcenturyproduction]

fuck you i hate who on earth likes war

[IL0VEKESKIN]

I dont like war, why on earth do you think that??? I havent said that... I think the song is good, it makes me smile becouse he sounds funny. :) and it makes me think about how lucky i am, and even makes me be grateful that i am alive, and that is a big step for me. you dont know me... I feel sorry for you if that bothers you that much that you had to be that rude...thats why there is war... people are mean to each other...

[JimsJoints420]

Damn good answer man!

[IL0VEKESKIN]

Thank you. :)

[FREEW0RLD2012]

What sounds 'funny' to you?

[IL0VEKESKIN]

the man's voice, when he says uuh-aah... there is nothing more deep to it... :)

[RobertAlly]

Bush isnt a terrible or incompitent person, he was just overwhelmed, as we all were

[mpennnyc]

thats a lot of people that have died because of being overwhelmed...i don't cause a world crisis because i am overwhelmed. i am not accusing you of anything, i am accusing bush

[Zetia2]

Looks like fun. Look at all those big explosions! War is so cool, I can't wait to fight. All I gotta say is, what country is next! I'm looking at you China!

[darthukas]

Yeah its very funny when your friends die besides you and if you get captured and they torure you and kill you at the end.

Oh its very funny.

+ China can kick everybodys ass.

[Zetia2]

Chinese spy! I will be looking for you on the battlefield! I will smile when I shove the cold steel of my knife into your red commie heart!

[darthukas]

I HAVE NO HEART you YANKIE! Thats why i'm invincible!

[themadmannn]

wow, i just hurt the feelings of some moronic neonazi white-pride moron.

[mjsmitty88]

wow a very simplistic and moronic summery of the Roman Empire and how it is similar to US!

[themadmannn]

Man, USA and empire of Rome back in the day has a lot in common. Both of them was greatest country in the world, both of them was ruled by "representive democracy" , both of them used to like to kick ass to other countries and unless something changes USA will end up the same as Rome did. They allready owe hella lot to Republic of China, so one day barbarians will take over USA just like they took over Rome.

[LlinynTrons]

gd video tho mate explains alot

[LlinynTrons]

Hope u r all seein these pictures coz thats wat ive experienced. dnt understand why the americans are in it they only want oil and after all my time inn afgan the americans are nuffin but blood thirstie killers

[fittyA]

who caresss about war and if it is good!!!!

war will never stop!! its in our human blood to kill!!! and we will never stop!!!! its in our genes to kill!!!

[lostandconfused3]

No it isn't look at our closest relatives, Orangutans and Banobo's especially the latter are extremely peacefull creatures, and as a race of creatures we are the only ones with the power to destroy ourselves but that doesn't mean its in our blood

[Lafayette912]

Great Britain, wasn't an empire then! Britain didn't have an emperor, it was essentially a representative democracy. And just wanted water, commerce after all...

[Lafayette912]

See history, "whats war good for?", for instance its good for not to be idle. To gain, money, power, or (my favorite) glory. War can end poverty, and at the same time create it, (I don't understand Americans War made them the country they are, yet they hate it) If you hate war then give texas back to Mexico, you stoled it through war. War made the United States "Great", thats what war is good for, War made the Empire YOU are part of.

[cablebeach1]

First, America isn't an empire. Yes, war isn't good, it depends on the way you look at it. I'm not anti-defend country. We rebelled against the British for our freedom. It's called "Conquering" not stealing.

[Lafayette912]

Empires conquer, thiefs steal.... Choose one, either USA is an empire that conquered california, hawai, phillipins, Texas(The list is actually larger), or they are just opportunistic thieves....

[cablebeach1]

Look we gone against the Mexicans because we bought a lot of land from them but they wouldn't get us land near water. Water was pretty scarce back then. USA isn't an empire. It's a country, they don't have an emperor that rules over all. It's called a Representive democracy.

[jamierlhjones]

they will keep texas in till the oil runs out

[tikiux5]

I love the song but Its a good intro to a war movie without war I believe there would be no change there will always be war no matter what you can hope the day there is no war the world will be quiet because man is no longer hear.

[Bryanthebiker]

props

[mfnstudios]

Love the message in this song.

What is it good for; Nothing!!

I agree 100%!!

[BlindLemonJR]

Agreed :)

[usametal]

what isnt war gould for how the hell do you think this country was born we also need war to keep other countries in line

[BattleOfAntwerp]

Hi can you help me please?

I need three pictures off this video:

1ST : 2:42

2ND : 2:46

3RD : 2:58

Thank you for the video.

The reason why i want these pistures is so that i can sort of spread what is going on in iraq around my school etc.

Thank you for your help if you can help me

[astral360]

Try using printscreen on your keyboard. Maximize the video then press print screen. It's in line with the function buttons and above the insert button. After that, paste it to mspaint/photoshop, or whatever picture editor you have there.

[WooDanny]

What's the song in the begining, (Not the ''War'' song)

[Giovannakos7]

Its a military anthem,called silenzio that calls the soldiers to go to sleep,or is played in their funerals...I hop i helped.

[3CROWNS1991]

People in the military are brave, but the iraq war is wrong

[commandobob6]

You fuckers... i am in the military, why dont you stop crying and make a difference in the world and for your country more importantly!

[enforcelinkin]

war will always occur in the modern world, whether we like it or not. what if mexico wanted to take the US? no war there? so we'd just let them take it? no military opposition?

i want to serve. why? to help the people in iraq and afghanistan..to walk up to them and say "hey its gonna be alright", give them some hope. i am proud of my country. proud of all of the good in the world.

Israel rulez the USA

[BattleOfAntwerp]

Well thats a lie innit lool

[lens129]

Bush is still make problems with Irak and if they still fight child gonna die daddy's and a familie can die so they must stop fight

WHAT IS WAR GOOD FOR? ABSOLUTLY NOTHING

[commandobob6]

O please, cry me a river! You all need to get out of your moms basement and do something GOOD with your lives. What is it good for, well the only reason you can put these half-ass, unamerican videos on youtube is cause of them. While your busy postin this shit, their dyin out there.

[TheLightMomentCOM]

WOW. Quite a rant. Not sure who you are talking about. Too many stupid assumptions about what is being done with my life. Quite a bit in human services and not from my Mother's basement. "Half-assed unamerican" get real? It's as American as its gets. I love how its un-American to question a stupid war. When is it ever wrong to question anything in America? And maybe posting this shit will shorten the time they are out their dying. Tha's the point.

[soulchain247]

@TheLightMomentCOM damn dude you just pwnd that guy on words

[peanutbutterprince47]

@TheLightMomentCOM You sir, are god .

[Neville6000]

And you sir, are nothing but a right-wing sheep-man who lives in his parent's basement typing out pro-war bullshit screeds just because you have an Internet account. If you feel so patriotic, why don't you get off your shit encrusted behind and enlist, you Keyboard Kommando chickenhawk?

[BattleOfAntwerp]

LOOL

[tilidin]

@commandobob6 they are dieing for no reason at all u think they were sent there to protect us? from what a Iraqi chucking rocks at us? or maybe the Afgans could have a goat stamped or something, they were no threat, the only nations in the world we would EVER have to worry about defending our selves from are russia china and india.

[tilidin]

@commandobob6 And that is only because of thier populations and active nuclear programs.

and russia and india like us, with china being close being called a ally as well seeing as our economy's depend so greatly on each other.

[damitdan1]

@commandobob6 TRAITOR! DO YOUR RESEARCH AND HELP DEFEND AMERICA!

[southernforever101]

BUT. People dont understand that you can be anti-war and still support it... its not Bush's fault this war was started.. He is using his GOD (yes there is a god)given right and obligation as president to protect our country , so next tiem a Democrat or ""ANTI- war"" person wants to critize him.. just remember "IF YOU WANT PEACE, PREPARE FOR WAR." GOD BLESS AMERICA.

[SailorsBitch08]

Anytime you speak negatively about the things our brothers and sisters are doing overseas is negative, why cant dipshit liberals figure it out. even if you want the troops safe you think stopping funding for body armor is gonna do that? do you think badmouthing the war or the president is gonna do that, no. Liberals enlist and see what its like or shut the fuck up

[bigshot777]

love the vid. i think we should pull out slowly and focus on iran and them supplying iraq with wepons and of course their nuclear program

[lojfufiueh]

fucking hippies

[TheLightMomentCOM]

No that was another stupid war we were in 30+ YEARS AGO. So,all the Americans who disagree are hippies? Get a clue. Turn on the news. Republicans are fed up too. Like Vietnam, what's you death count total before you admit its time to get out - gee, you don't have one? What a surprise. Thanks for your insightful analysis and wit; 2 words from 40 years ago. You must be very proud.

[p0wer5000]

@TheLightMomentCOM and if we back out it WILL be jsut like vietnam we back out every soldier that has died will be for nothing

[p0wer5000]

@lojfufiueh agreed but good song other then its anti-war but th oil war is a lil messed up

[kyoskei]

War is a natural reaction. when too many of one speicies occupy the same area tenstion grows and they cull the population, same with humans, you cant stop war. "The US has more blood on its hands..." because other nations call for help like France and Isreal. your logic is flawed. Oil? yea its a recorce and as long as we drive gasoline cars we need recorces. Look at the big picture people war will not end, people will fight over recorces, their diferances, and fear of other nations weapons.

[addmeifucan]

Great vid man, the war MUST stop, no country in the world sees the US as a respectable nation anymore.

In its short history of existence the US has had more blood on its hand than any other nation that comes to mind. Anyone who can defend Bush today on his policies is the biggest idiot alive.

[Soultrash]

This latest war is to keep the oil flow going. Basically. Destabalizing the area so the local populous has to sell the oil for reconstruction. Just because there is a Taboo on the economic reasons for these latest "wars" doesn't mean they aren't there. :D

[thewolfman1992]

i think it was a good video

[b2spiritbomber]

every american war has had a good reason except americas last three

[mastermon123]

war...it sickens me.... but there nothing we can do about it...that what really make me sicks....i wonder...what would the world be like if america have never been found...

[TheCommissarRed]

How could you forgot the greatest warmongers all:

Captilism and the USA world #1 agressor

[sailorkill]

You're right! what is war good for? I mean other than slavery, communism, soacialism, Fascism, and liberating millions of jews from concentration camps war has solved nothing.

BM3 Tucker, USN

[kyoskei]

so in making this you will exccept the responsibility of telling the thousands of people: Soldiers here and those that died and their family that their freinds neabors husbands wives children. those intamate relationships and sharing of ones soul. that they went there for nothing and for the ones who died their deaths were meaningless. i for one will back my freinds and family that are there and you civilian trash can shut your mouths about facts you dont have

[Tugalazix]

A soldier is defends his country not the guy who runs it

[kyoskei]

A soldeir serves his duty under his/her commander and cheif. they defend their country and everyone in it. (and how did that have any relevance to what i said)

[Tugalazix]

i hate you xD

[kyoskei]

Thats fine. but your only serving to prove my point 7 posts from now

[Tugalazix]

i dont care if your right all i know americans are gonna lose again

[TheLightMomentCOM]

U.S. does have more blood on its hands;for good and bad reasons. Is the world at war for less important reasons now vs 1,000 years ago? Probably not. Let us be less righteous and more humble. Let us listen more and speak less. Let us rejoin the global solution rather than the automatic American solution. A REAL United Nations as a 1st solution should be the way. Best country in the world doesn't mean mistake free. Our obligation is to democracy, truth and the will of "We the People."

[nightripper2010]

Yea another amateur video using the same old song that everyone else uses. What a joke.

[TheLightMomentCOM]

So, is it the same old song you hate or the fact that there are always new pictures to go with that old song?

Doesn't seem like using a new song would matter to you. Sorry the song bothers you more than the death.
