TRIGGER WARNING- this video contains graphic images of extreme violence perpetrated by the US military on innocent civilians in Iraq. I wrote this song hoping to bring more awareness to the plight of independent Australian journalist Julian Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks, who is currently in Britains notorious Belmarsh maximum security prison. He is being held without charge, for leaking classified files exposing, among other things, war crimes committed by the US in Iraq and other countries. I was inspired to write this song after watching the WikiLeaks leaked video of an horrific attack on unarmed, innocent civilians and two Reuters journalists in Baghdad in 2010. This leaked video was a pivotal moment for independent journalism which, for the first time saw the US and UK governments relentless pursuit of Assange for doing no more than exposing the truth.
