Hey, just wanna say saw that video last night in full - disappointed, because like previous guys commented - where’s George Bush catching that grenade/lighter?
But seriously, seen a great chunk of the video before, but never the full thing, and the pace and the images and stuff, I was like - whoa! It is a beautiful video, did make me feel a little sick must admit, but…. what can I say?

Re-releasing that video? Urm…. no, she withdrew it because of the timing, and there’s still conflict and shit going down in Iraq, which was her whole point for filming and releasing that video, and nowadays I doubt she’d want the attention “MADONNA RE-RELEASING TABOO MUSIC VIDEO” doesn’t seem her kinda drive atm, more “MADONNA RELEASES YET ANOTHER FUCKIN YOGA VIDEO” perhaps :( did have a lot of respect for that woman, and the edited version was such a cop out

I just posted this video on my own blog — I hope a lot of people do the same, and it gets seen.

Question: About four minutes and thirty-three seconds into this video — is that Meryl Streep I spy in the audience? I really think it is … I already love her, but if she’s in this, I love her more.

She’s a g*dd**mn prophet. I wonder if there’s a way the original video could be re-released today.

Madonna is exactly right about how the people are laughing at all the violence of war in this video. This is exactly what all the sick wealthy right wing people are doing in the United States. Madonna is not a visionary, she is just stating the obvious. How else could Bush get away with the crimes he has over the last 7 years?

cool video. If Madonna had let the video run at the time (like a younger Madonna probably would have) she would be lauded as a visionary now, rather than a bit of a wash up.
