Every war when it comes, or before it comes, is represented not as a war but as an act of self-defense against a homicidal maniac.

some things never change, just change the name of the current race at the top of the 'hate' list and this is still timely. Thanks for posting.

Tuli Kupferberg, a poet and singer who went from being a noted Beat to becoming, in his words, “the world’s oldest rock star” when he helped found the Fugs, the bawdy and politically pugnacious rock group, died on Monday in Manhattan. He was 86 and lived in Manhattan.

Kill for Peace - The Fugs [East Village, New York] - 1966 - "AMG Pick. It has a UK Punk attitude with a definite anti-war xenophobic feeling from the Viet Nam era." - Fugs Second Album (Fantasy)-1994.
NOTE: If you don't like this song, may I suggest Toby Keith's "God, Guns and The American Way" song: Courtesy of the Red White and Blue. :-)

@chuckie0308 Nothing at all. It was just an action to make Americans happy with military control of the Middle East. Although it isn't at all for our benefit that they are there.

@Entropy56 Why do you say their lyrics were bombastic or idiotic?

Oh! you did this! It's strange, I searched this song last night to post it on fb!

@MasterrFlamaster not really european, they were all american GI's based in germany
It doesn't matter that their lyrics were bombastic or idiotic; they were simply against the establishment. Now they are all Democrats. How times have changed – or not....

@Entropy56 As long as there's an establishment, there's going to be someone to speak against it, right or wrong...but isn't that the point?

This song says so much especially on a day like today, the day after the death of the mass murderer Osama Bin Laden. What have we really accomplished with killing him???
