I don't even have to look at it to know that if Green Day's involved, it's making fun of pro-defense Stupid Americans like you and me.

You need to watch it again. Most of the footage was fake. It's a statement that we should bring all the troops home and concentrate on helping "victims" in the United States rather than being in Iraq.

About as leftist as possible.

The only Federal, State, or Local agency that didn't totally abdicate its responsibility during the Katrina disaster was the US Coast Guard. I would have liked to have seen that acknowledged in the video.

The video itself is a criticism of the Bush administration and its priorities, suggesting that it would have been of more benefit to America to put ground troops in New Orleans rather than in Iraq.

Green Day just sucks....

I was a big fan of U2, but then 1987 ended and suddenly I thought that Bono was just a little too full of himself.

I saw an interview with him recently talking about how her wrote "Bullet the Blue Sky" about a "farmers collective" he was supporting in Central America. He was there during an air strike he claims.

Why do millionaire rock stars all seem to adore communism?

Seems to me the message of the video is that the military should be used for humananitarian efforts as opposed to the mission it exists to perform. Seems on par for these guys. Definitely didn't get a pro military vibe from it.
