Sing it, Sting!

In Europe and America,
there's a growing feeling of hysteria.
Conditioned to respond to every threat,
In the terrorist speeches on the internet.

Zarqawi says "We will behead you."
I don't subscribe to this point of view.
It would be such an impolite thing to do.
If the Muslims looooove their children too.

How can we save our little boys from mad extremists sickly joys?
There's is a definite shortage of common sense,
On their side of the theological fence.

We're sons of monkeys, sons of pigs,
While they're self-righteous killer prigs.
Believe me when I say to you
I hope the Muslims loooove their children too

There's no such thing as "permitted" free speech,
Just try it and watch it slip out of reach.
It's only okay for them to preach.
I hope the Muslims loooove their children toooo...

We share the same biology
Regardless of nutso theology.
But what will save us, me and you
Is that the Muslims loooove their children too...

From where would a father -- any father -- get the idea that he should kill his own daughter?

I can think of few things more profoundly unnatural.

Religious reasons are discussed here:

There is no deeper wave than this

I don't know the tune, if it's supposed to be recognizable.

Darren, the tune would be "Russians", off Sting's first solo album, "The Dream of the Blue Turtles".

I was afraid of something like this. Since the Soviet Union fell, it hasn't gotten a whole lot of play. Big props to Sean Kinsell for recognizing it.

"At the still point of destruction
At the center of the fury
All the angels, all the devils
All around us can't you see"

You can hear the tune at Amazon.com, and the lyrics are all over the net.

By the way, I really enjoy your blog.
