@ThePsychoReturns Someone has to fix it ! We have been resisting for generations , we're still struggling , and we will keep fighting evil with Love, Science and Modernization!
Two Neighboring Countries for two nations , living in Harmony and peace , respecting all religious , racial or national minorities , and respecting all human rights regardless to a person's race, religion , color , gender , sexual orientation or origin !
@Catholic118 I don't think that'll happen unless a whole lot of assholes are sent out to sea. There are some people who just can't be convinced with an act of kindness.
@gmajorrr Your Christian God is no more cogent or valid than any of the ancient Gods, or various religions that have come into being since Christianity's inception. It's an indoctrinated concept; an invention that humans created to deal with a lack of understanding and to maintain power structures. While there may be a force that fits into the "God" category, it is not your wrathful, vain, insecure biblical God, and it never will be, no matter how hard you pray to the ether.
hey, I'm not Christian at all more Jewish, but i don't practice any religion. my god is valid as much as Jesus, Alla, Buddha or the ancient god. I'm ok with all of them. it's all one anyway. god is not a concept. it's more of an experience. ego wants to maintain power structures, ego is wrathful, vain, insecure.

the people of Israel and the religious right would/could never agree with the message here. If we continue on this Road to Peace ............it isn't going to matter before long. First time I've heard it~very true and very sad.
Is humanity lost on the road to peace, co- inhabitance while the earth dies screaming. Love thy brother as thyself, love you Tom Waits & the truth in this song.
this is pretty deep. The lyrics and tune are a lot different from most other anti-war songs. The message in this song is way more upfront and you can clearly see what he's trying to say.
I like it, and I think more people should make songs like this :D
@maximumunicorns i feel the same way. it always happens to me when i listen to this song or for example living with war by neil young. it's crazy how much a song can express and how deep the feeling is you get when listening. it shows that these artists really meant it and put their soul into this songs.
I want this video on my INNO 89 unit.

@MichaelBlue72 Not really. It's more of a condemnation of the whole stupid war.
