The Minstrel Boy

--- Mind your language please! There is no need to be rude to underline a statement. You are free to discuss all that your want to, but use arguments! If you want respect, you will have to earn it!

This is clips from the movie "Black Hawk Down" and the track "The Minstrel Boy". It is not the original track, but one made for Black Hawk Down. The original was an irish patriotic song, written by Thomas Moore.

NB: I am aware of the one of the lines should have been "The minstrel boy to the war has gone", but unforturnetly I cant change it anymore.

I was a soldier, "samurai". I served my country as a Bersagliere, as a volunteer. When I turned 18 going to the nearest military district was the first thing I did. So do not ever think you know who I am, and why I say what I say. I laugh of you, a person who really thinks that saying that a uniform is nothing more than a dress, and soldier is just a profession, means I'm a '68 pacifist. I'm pragmatic, simply that.

@cwaterbug01

I really don't know of what country you're speaking of and I really don't care. You could have a lot of uniforms, and I still don't care. You could be proud of that, good to you. But facts remain: in a lot of country soldiers took away freedom. You could use rhetoric, and even now I don't care. I'm pragmatic: soldier is just a profession. It's the individual that matters. And I was a soldier (Bersagliere). I use my own brain, and see how things really are.

@oranjuh LOL back at cha comes the Revolution people like you go to the wall,. see you and the other side of the barricades good buddy

[oranjuh]

@Pangolinus You were dumb and naïeve. That's all I can say. Wearing an uniform for me only let me know you were indoctrined by your country's propaganda to join the army. Apparently you value your life very low since you are willing to risk by taking duty. But I guess you will never understand people like me who laugh at people like you.

@wucodu Rest in Peace all victims of tyranny, terrorism, piracy, and pure slavery in the middle east.

[borbo23]

@movielister But which army? Maybe you should be more specific. Members of the Iranian army might read it and think you mean them! GOOD GOD NO!

[telek04]

@oarfrost squaddies to attack in tight groups. And more to the point, if they were allowed to spread out, did Caine realise how much wide angle camera lens cost?
