Yoko Ono Pleads 'Give Peace a Chance' on 9/11

LONDON (Reuters) - Yoko Ono Tuesday pleaded with the world to "Give Peace A Chance" with the release on the MTV music channel of a short film to mark the first anniversary of the September 11 attacks.

John Lennon's widow said in a statement: "Let's create peace, unity and light. I think John's words are needed just as much now as when they were written -- 'Imagine all the people living in peace' and 'Give Peace A Chance."'

The film starts with the viewer trailing down a dark corridor to reach a door with light pouring through it. Yoko Ono greets the viewers and takes them up a ladder to read the words "Give Peace A Chance" written on the ceiling.

"Like all of us, I'd like to see the human race survive, living in health and in love with each other," said the Japanese artist whose Beatle husband was gunned down in front of their New York apartment in 1980.

I couldn't agree more. And I think we should accomplish this by killing every one of the bastards responsible for what happened in NYC 9/11/02.

Hey Yoko, you genius, it was the USA that was attacked. We did give peace a chance.

Well said, but don't forget those who gave aid a comfort to the bastards! Imagine a world without those sorry bastards. Now, let's make it so.

What's her stance on Mark David Chapman these days? Doesn't he deserve love, forgiveness, parole? Isn't it wrong to use force to keep his sorry ass in prison?

Oh, sorry, different standard when it's her family that's murdered.

I think she should adopt him and have him released to her custody, for life.

"Like all of us, I'd like to see the human race survive, living in health and in love with each other,"

I'm sure that's exactly what the terrorist were thinking on 9-11-01. Yes, chanting the words and giving "Peace A chance" will really stop the war on terrorism. President Bush should consider Yoko for Secretary of State position next term.

What planet does she live on. EARTH TO YOKO....EARTH TO YOKO. Typical 60's babble from an acid head.

Yoko then urinated in a jar, floated a red lemon in it, and called it art. It is now on display at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.

It's time to post this again (or maybe not.)

If Yoko Ono were to marry Luigi Nono and write a piece of music for nine instruments, based on themes from a famous French musical, we would have:

The Yoko Ono NoNo No No Nanette Nonette.
