I saw this video for the first time in August 2005. The lyrics haunt me and compel me to keep doing what I can do to end this nightmare.

Send another brother - We're running out of heroes again...
Send another brother
Send another brother

I held your photograph... and in the space below a man you did not know wrote your epitaph.

Another fighter lost, another life is tossed onto this fire we have made.

And when the morning comes, and when the morning comes, rise and let them know we are awake.

RISE. RISE. RISE.

I'd never realised she was english so all I need to do in the future is find a gig somewhere !

Did so with the help of europegirl4jfk who'd posted the video at an earlier date -
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CBkR5oPNsto with the note "Anti-War Music-Video: A tribute to Casey Sheehan and all the others who suffered and died in an unjust and unnecessary war. - Created in August 2005"

It's on "Things Change" by Charlie Dore - Amazon.Com have got one copy available : http://www.amazon.com/Things-Change-Charlie-Dore/dp/B0007A1FRU/sr=1-25/qid=1168644210/ref=sr_1_25/104-6955830-8865563?ie=UTF8&s=music there are others on Amazon.co.uk - just bought one. Not sure if it's a single or an album

8. Thank you for posting this again!

I made the video in August 2005 and sadly nothing has changed since. Bush is now escalating this senseless war and more people will die. Once again they are repeating history. *sigh*

I have the Charlie Dore CD since several years and when the Iraq war started I thought that this song perfectly describes it. You all may know, but in the case you don't, the young soldier in the first picture is Cindy Sheehan's son Casey.

9. I am glad you are pleased! I loved it - the lyrics and images

are haunting. Watching it again today I was particularly touched by the interweaving of images of Iraq and Vietnam. Now that Senator Kennedy has officially noted that Iraq is Bush'es Vietnam the video is all that much more impactful.

:hug:
