If you're going to support this, the least you could do is become educated about the topic and not just spout off because you feel "strongly" about the subject. Like our friend 0pinkfloyd0 who can't actually spell Darfur, and insists on referring to this as Darfour. Don't be ignorant guys, if you're going to make an argument then for God's sake make it legitimate.

Hitler's idea was that only pure german, blonde haired, blue eyed people deserved to live. He tried to kill of everyone else off to grow the 'master race', the Aryans. Do you happen to fit all of those qualifications you disgusting disgrace to humanity?? Probably not. Nice to see that you're thinking of ways you'd like to die.

John Lennon was an amazing musician and one of the most honest influential peacemakers ever. It's good to keep his music alive while thinking about the meaning. The world needs more people like him

@Praetorian333 I agree with you, but i am part of the group of people who don't really understand the situation in Darfur. I tried understanding it through Wikipedia but it doesn't mention detailed cruelties that the people face. Please do enlighten us. :)

Bought this CD on iTunes and it was SO worth the money. These covers are beautifully done - personal favorites are U2's cover of Instant Karma and Avril Lavigne's Imagine.

I think this is something John would have loved to be behind.
