GUEST,moofus Songs From the Mudcat Songbook!!!!! (65* d) RE: Songs From the Mudcat Songbook!!!!! 20 Nov 06


Ref the Bruce Murdoch song. Yes, it's great... and thanks for posting... Nothing against you or against Bruce or anyone... but in the song he says "I seek the voice of honesty". That's what I'm doing here. Why were there never any protest songs about the phony war in former Yugoslavia? Why no songs for all the people we killed there and the lies told (the 10,000 dead "Kosovars", for example... there were only a few hundred before we bombed and killed them)? How we helped with ethnic cleansing? Are even all the musicians just sheeple? And no one ever mentions our oil pipeline (yes, oil pipeline... the AMBO pipeline) that is proposed to run straight under our camp Bondsteel in Kosovo. Is war only okay when it's Mr. Clinton's war instead of Mr. Bush's? What about all our soldiers still in that hole called Kosovo? Sorry, I just wonder. No one seems to protest the politically correct version of things spoon fed by the media (as in bombing Serbia is good, bombing Iraq bad) ... sorry, I've been overseas and I came home disappointed (no, not a soldier -- a refugee/humanitarian worker I am, not military). I'm just trying to figure out what's happened to my country. Thanks, ya'll.
