Yesterday, A.N.S.W.E.R. held a gathering and vigil in Hollywood to protest the Iraqi war and call for U.S. troops to return home for the holidays. Ron Kovic, Vietnam war veteran, author, and screenwriter of Born on the Fourth of July was there to speak. But in this video something else happened... John Lennon's Happy Christmas (War is Over).

Music: Happy Xmas (War is Over) by John Lennon.

Here's another great version: Happy Xmas 2

SEND a soldier a care package!

  • Zadi, your video has touched me.
    Great idea of having the people sing/read the lyrics of the song.

    Videoblogging is going to grow very fast with vlogs like yours, you have a very specific eye in all your stories. we need more people like you videoblogging...

  • I like it. Good to see people, at the bottom of all this crap, are still people.

    May you have peace this year, regardless of the lack elsewhere in the world.

  • Great video :-)

    Hope you all had a great christmas!

    (although I need to leave one note: Will there be peace if the american troops go home? I doubt so. I think it was wrong to begin this war but leaving now might just leave iraq in a mess and more as a breeding ground for terrorists. And if they leave others should step in but I doubt that this will happen.)

    But anyway, I wish everybody a happy new year in advance and maybe all of this will sort out somehow in 2006 :-)
