4th25, part of Iraq's Task Force 112 --their video and song...warning: images you don't see on the news.
I know that this is possibly an incredibly stupid thing to say, but I really, really hate war.

What is it inside of us that turns us into people capable of that?

Quick, someone say something funny, else I'll be drinking myself into a wasteland tonight.

Are the kids who made this going to be slapped down for it? It does not seem to toe the party line.

The weird thing is, this is absolutely perfect propaganda; it seems horrific, but how many kids are going to see or hear this, and think how badass it is to be over there shooting people?

Especially since it seems like it's supposed to be "not officially approved" by the government.

Thank fuck for the music or that could be construed as umm... rather disconcerting. But when there's rhythm it's all cartoonfictional right?

Once again, I'm glad I'm in the habit of reading comments before clicking links.

holy fucking shit. i don't know which was worse... the content or the music. fuck!!

i should maybe clarify... i'm a hiphop afficionado. i didnt mean to imply that rap music itself sucks; just this shite... it's awful.

was also surprised(?) to see in the mefi thread that many people still don't understand the differences between hiphop, rap, and gangsta rap. maybe its time for someone to post teh fpp and drop some science on (some of) your ignorant cracker asses. possible topics worth discussing:

- hiphop, as an artform, is the new jazz
- michael eric dyson is always interesting
- cultural hegemony... from elvis to eric clapton to eminem: the honkyization of black music
- nelly and usher are the britney spears and christina aguilera of rap music.
- hiphop as linguistic evolutional catalyst of contemporary english language
- etc.

so... if some kind soul has some time on their hands to throw an fpp together, that would be cool. (i'm feeling lazy today. sorry.) if not, that's cool, too, i guess. i'll find something interesting and post it some other time, sighing audibly.
