  1. I'm really not very knowledgeable on middle east politics. Maybe I should be more aware of what's going on in the world. But I have confidence in that Bono looks only on the injustice that is done on the next person rather than the reasons that are given for justifying whatever the need fir retaliation is. And when it comes to affecting the young or unborn that there is no justification of it by any nation whatever. His wife Ali is very involved in a charity set up to aid the children of Chernobyl and I think that this could be connected somehow. It could be her who initially had a knowledge of this and that may be where it originated from. Anyway I'm really looking forward to hearing the song because then we will know what it's all about.

    Take a look guys and perhaps we may think that U2 are still a band to make a point.

    I cannot say that this is anything to do with their new album. But I'd like to put a bet that it is.

    U2 have always looked at the way religions Coexist, I can't see how that site supports that fact by being against another religion. If someone has read into this please explain, that looked very dodgy.

    It states a true point Yeah.
    Israel has used American money to massacre tower blocks and town squares of innocent civilians, even doing so on the same day they mourned the holocaust

    So if U2 wanna rock the boat again, this is a VERY smart VERY controversial way to do it.

    Sorry Daley, just to get this straight, you're saying you don't think the site is related to the proposed song?

    Which goes to show that the whole situation in the Middle East is pretty fucked up.

    no i don't, not along the lines of anti-semitism anyway . Political and religious disagreement/conflists could be a theme in a song or album ofcause, but not expressed in that way.
  9. No I'm really sorry I really didn't realise that it was . I have no anti religious felling about anyone. I only feel that we should all live together and understand that we are different and live with it.
    The song will however I'm sure be looking in the direction of the issue of hurt to one another.

    I'm not gonna discuss on that here, there is some truth in what you say, though. Rare enough.

    My point is, that if you keep on reading the linked page, you'll find tons of anti-jewish Propaganda that was already used by the Nazis.

    Indeed, i think America needs to stop funding both sides and either pull back te money, or fund peacekeeping and negotiating efforts.

    Otherwise she just needs to take two steps back and let the people sort it out.

    Its so much like Ireland a few years ago.
