This is a response born of frustration with the seemingly endless conflict in the Middle East, not to mention the constant "police actions" and other military missions of the West. Sometimes it just seems like peace is impossible. As much as I would love to have a world free of weapons, violence and hatred, it's times like these that make such a dream seem not only impossible, but downright stupid. Consider this a mild product of depression, frustration and impotent anger, and please note that this is NOT a gung-ho, rah-rah, kill 'em all pro-war paean.
Some video clips taken from Mark Manning's excellent documentary "Caught in the Crossfire." Music by Cro-Mags from the great "Age of Quarrel" album. If the AIDS references seem out of date, it's because this song was released in 1986. Funny how the "warheads" references seem totally up-to-date, though.

Yeah, but thing is like many things in life there are always subverts who think thwy know what something is about and twist it to their own dysfunction. And then they become more well known than the movement itself. Skinheads are having the same problem. As are Hindu's who are perscuted for using a fertitlity symbol they had for hundreds of years because some dicator liked it and used it in recent history for his own viloent racist movement.
Though I *do* believe that "world peace" can indeed be accomplished, it won't come about easily.
Secondly, you did a GREAT job of pairing up the various still images with this classic track by the Cro-Mags. Love it! And with the printed lyrics for the lightning quick delivery by John Joseph and Harley Flanagan, to boot.
