This is a powerful anti-war video. The song is Don’t Think Twice sung by John Kasper, of the John Kasper Band. The video montage is a collection of photos showing the results of war. I made this video to aid John in protesting the war in Iraq.

They lied last time about the grounds for war in Iraq, and they are lying this time about the grounds for war with Iran. Don’t attack Iran. Sign the petition!
On September 11th, 2001 there was a conspiracy waged for war with Iraq and Afghanistan for oil and corporate greed.
This video is a reminder of that, and is a compilation of clips I put together, with a song by the legendary musical activist John Kasper, whose musical talent and ambition rival that of big-time musicians. Anthony Krizan of the legendary *Spin Doctors* produced “Conspiracy of Silence” with the New Jersey based John Kasper Band.
“Remind us again how September Eleventh will justify all of your unjustifiable wars.”

In case you haven’t heard, on August 14th, 2007 Kansas Representative Dennis Moore and Kansas Senator Pat Roberts met for a little “kaffeeklatch” at Johnson County Community College (JCCC) near Kansas City, Kansas. It was an attempt at bipartisanship - - a blue dog Dem talking with a Repub - - trying to make all the problems go away. They sat and talked about nothing for about an hour and a half. They took questions from the audience that were written on postcards and screened by the evening’s moderator - - who made sure that all questions asked of the gentlemen in public were totally inane. You all know the view of the American public on the Iraq war - - an overwhelming majority want it OVER - - and there was NOT ONE WORD mentioned about the w-a-r.
Well, about 9pm as they were wrapping up, there was a sudden unveiling of the truth! The audience heard a “thud-thud-thud” and turned around to find to the dismay of Moore and Roberts, no doubt, a HUGE banner which you see in the picture.
Kaedden [last name unknown], an employee of JCCC, willingly “fell on his sword,” as activist David Quinly put it. He knew he would be fired from his job working for the theater at JCCC, but still climbed up on the catwalk to push the banner out so everyone could see it. He was taken to the Security office and questioned for about an hour. David asked him later if he had been water-boarded or otherwise tortured. Kaedden wasn’t sure if they would press charges of any type. He said that the college threatened to “ban” him from the campus. We were ready to post bail!
Hopefully, this may help to open some folks’ eyes.
