A Million Mogadishus

Stray Pooch (an obvious pseudonym), a contributer to the the fiery debate at The Three Dead Horses Saloon, has written "A Million Mogadishus", a song for all of those who would curse the war while soldiers are fighting.

Give it a listen here.

Now, those who read my blog know that I am fully in favour of antiwar protestors having a right to express their opinion, and dismiss all the red-baiting and continuing obsessiveness with the culture war at home that characterize the majority of demonstrators as enemies of America, or "objective supporters of Saddam." So this song doesn't mirror my own opinion about protest or protesters.

However, I applaud an honest effort from a talented person who is expressing himself without being belligerent, or trying to make a buck off of war, like the Clint Blacks of the world.

Fantastic! Subdued, yet very powerful.
