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

    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.

    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.
  4. 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.

    It goes back a little longer than that, y'know...and yeah, let's quit with the politics everyone - we've got a forum for that elsewhere
  11. ok Let's not.
    I have a thought though. What if the new American President is not quite such a dick head and Bono can be more true to himself when he has to approach him for various reasons. Do you think that it could affect his songs? I think that there is no doubt that Bono had to be a bit held back with what he would like to say because his first priority is to endear the President to support his causes and not to alienate him. More of a sincere approach?? Who knows.

    I really don't wanna imagine what's on that bloke's mind right now...but I would like to see a couple of songs with anti-war comments...even if it's too much of a cliche right now...HTDAAB had none, maybe some hidden messages...like the way we interpreted Vertigo on the MoLRT, or those very silent first lines of LAPOE...I like something that's clear, like The Boss has been doing lately...Devils & Dust, The Devil's Arcade or Long Walk Home.
