I just watched the propaganda fodder - He really IS a BAaaaaAAAD! person, which would mean he is in a real lot of trubble BUT! as far as HUMAN BEINGS go, he's quite alright with me, doing what comes naturally, hey? Protecting his kingdom against the invaders... Maybe he can plead UCC and... oh, that's their game, or... maybe he could use his "account... what? ... oh! are you sure? same thing again. Then maybe he should hire a Gooood lawyer... huh? Their game AGAIN!!  Ok then dear Wesley, just do what we here always do... Tell em to "Piss off!" There! that ought to fix it for you.

Was this really banned? If so, why? Well, DUH! Marc. It is relevant, pertinent, intelligent and has a strong and articulate message. What's not to ban? - NonE |

Was this really banned? If so, why? That's why I put the "banned by mtv" in quotes & italics.  "Bombs" generated moderate controversy with its music video, as demonstrated by MTV's refusal to air it[2]. The music video featured interchanged clips of war scenes and daily life; symbolizing the presence of war all around us. As said by the director of the music video Howard Greenhalgh, "War infects all our lives; recently it feels that this has increasingly become 'our way of life'". --- WikipediaThe Wikipedia article [2] footnote links to a site but its one of those news source sites that archives and so the page is current (where the vid release was like 2006). MTV's online video linx do not include Bombs. ?? (the site only lists the album by title; a "search" on the site only turns that up) Google News search turns up nada. This may be more urban legend than fact, tho the MTV video site having other Faithless vids but not Bombs is curious. The majority of the "banned" references are simply to the YouTube post.  A cursory romp around some forums yields somewhat of a consensus that the military burial on the beach segment (sand-to-Iraq connection etc) gets the vote for the reason - if - for banning it. Second runner up was the military raid spliced with the children in school. Overall, it was felt too militaristicaly violent (aka too real?). |
