Cro-Mags: “World Peace” video 2006

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 If the AIDS references seem out of date, it’s because this song was released in 1986.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.

    @hardcore13athens This may be true, but how much closer are you to peace or a free anarchist society in Greece than anywhere else in the world?

    World peace can be done, you just need to eradicate all life. Fuckin’ stupid peace punks not knowing how to achieve their goals.

    @Subvertist People think all Anarchist are the same but there are so many variances of the idea.

    @maelfesh3 Tough shit I guess then, eh? You seem to have ignored my question about the race-card stuff. If anything its a dig at the pope, not race, so calm down. But gosh darn it, I just can’t help myself but feed purdy little Trolls like you. So anyway, how can you take offence to it? Thats what I need explained, and what you still haven’t bothered to. By the way, if its “as much a chance”, does that mean the US has a similar totalitarian regime? Or is that just a word choice mental fart?

    @MrCuntface93 All I am saying is it’s a stupid comment about ”White Man countries” He has a smuch a chance of doing that as buddhism spreading throughout USA.Those people typically arent Christain and their totalitarian Communist regime at best limits the ability to spread religious or political views.So yeah I take some offence to the comment.

    @maelfesh3 What racecard stuff? I asked why he apparantly only controlled that stuff. I’m not spreading shit, I asked a question, so what the hell mate? Calm down. Where the hell do you see anything offensive in that? Seeing racism in a question without racism is only creating racism that isn’t there.
