Battle Hymns - The Nightwatchman (Tom Morello)

This is my fifth music video and can you believe it not Anti-Flag? LMAO. I'm quite proud of it and feel it's my best yet. Some pictures are graphic and transition may be off a bit. I hope you think it's good.

I agree, the pictures you've chosen for this song are... baffling in the least the part with the 'Praise...' then displaying various nation figure heads and images is silly. Though, I get the feeling you understand it's an anti-war song and perhaps your slideshow is an attempt at satire. If so, it's poor deliverence. If you missed the message totally then... well, the previous comments covered it. Though the timing and such was well done still, so the video was good in that sense.

I was trying to show these people were wretched, like Blair and Bush. And misled were the Governments. Okay it's not my best, but I was in no way trying to be funny. Not anything of sort. I was being serious, I see this song showing fuilty of war, I don't see it referring to one war, but many. And I did try show this.

[boexbass]

is this on his cd?

[Fontroy]

Yes, is the simple answer.

[pandapon]

[wandamanspongeshit]

in the military you get a medal or body bag or both..

If you disagree with this song you are either an American or an American-symphatizer, and therefore you should be killed outright. Literally no world peace can be achieved without turning the "good ol' US of A" into a radioactive glass desert. which means that UN - step the fuck off from Iran and North Korea. those dudes are merely doing necessary work.

2:17 wow it's hardcore...

" War isn't bad on it's own necessarily, but greed is. "

greed is not the only form of corruption alone, but that is quite well said anyway.

Oh and Fontroy , from the antipodean reaches of the Empire, can I just say God Save the Queen and remember too yanks don't get irony -hence the old "Ironic" moronic song! Oh and "Blesse mon coeur d'une langueur monotone" if you know what I mean:)

[queny2]

Fontroy I'd just like to say man, these images make perfect sense. We are in a war, but it is not the war we are told we are in, as we both know. Your enemy is aiming to kill you, so please expect negative comments, thats frankly the least of your worries brother. Be strong, and thanks for this powerful stand! Trust me, Morello will be proud of what you have done.

War isn't always futile, but the problem is that it has become an industry.

Where would Krupp be without two world wars to fund German industry?

Where would GE and all those fucks be without a US army that gets almost a trillion a year to spend on whatever it wants?

War isn't bad on it's own necessarily, but greed is.

awesome song and awesome video...my younger brother is in the army...the thoughts i have of him goin over there turn my stomache...lets not bullshit each other here...there are no winners in war only losers, any one who says different is ridiculous...anyone who trashed this video should reconsider the REALITY of war and what happens during it....

[Zombiebushi]

Good song. Bad video.
