1. Probably one of the best anti-War songs
going. And the images people are using with it in this Iraqi War are powerful.

2. I bought the entire Billy Jack series :)
One reason was that song. It spoke to me when I was much younger (I was born in 1965) and still does to me now.

Powerful anti-war theme, hopefully the artists of today will replicate those times and educate the people.
