kinda hard to take this song seriously when it comes right before the song about the muscle shooty man video game

Well, after a couple of years it seems that the lyrics have become a little bit ironic. The invasion of the Iraq and Afghanistan does not seem to be a very clever idea after all. War isn't the answer anyway.

Sure, if you believe idiotic oversimplification, rabid rah-rah jingoism to an almost xenophobic level, isolationism and a demonisation of other institutions while whitewashing the USA's own less-than-distinguished foreign history are qualities for a political song.

@mimine101 For one, dave was 47 when they recorded this album, so of course he isn't gonna sound like he did 10 to 20 years ago. Dave is one hell of a singer. He does a hell of job playing all of those intricate riffs while singing the way he does. Get over the whole singing thing. I guess it only takes people like me to realize how great of a singer Dave but that's anyones fault for missing out on such a band as Megadeth as a whole.

What is this shit? An angry, stupid oversimplification of global politics. What, the UN is supposed to be responsible for cleaning up the mess the USA made?

I don't like political songs very much, but this one I do like. Nice melody in the chorus.

It has less to do with America than it does with the game of politics in general. And if you look at the facts, it's really hard to deny the agenda of hypocrisy and cowardism that this ineffective international "peacekeeping" organization puts forth. And that includes both the inability to stand up to the US agenda and the unwillingness to stand up to the Islamic agenda. The United Nations is little more than a monster masked by sickly sweet ideals. So fuck everyone.

To those that think this song is about AMERICANISM you are pretty wrong. It is about the U.S. governments lies to us and putting rose colored glasses over our eyes. We are the poster child of the U.N. and if we were to get it out then maybe America would not be so ignorant and blind tot he rest of the worlds plight and not just our own trivial bullshit. Megadeth is trying to be this nations conscience and open our eyes. If you listen to Megadeth throughout the years they always try to help people. We are still the most powerful nation on earth and could do a great deal of good in this world if we stopped obeying U.N. precepts that most other U.N. members already ignore
