So, is this video an ad to recruit for the military? It sounds like such a Simpson's plot much?

But keep in mind, that Hollywood has been known to be doing this for years now. So is it a stretch to think that the music industry does it too?

Yeah I definitely agree... Though with all the people coming back from Iraq and Afganistan I have to wonder why the military still needs to recruit people... Are we really going to fund another war we can't afford? Are we just going to push the federal reserve so far off the deep end that our money becomes wallpaper? I guess we are going to wind up back on the gold standard or using the Amero as a currency at some point... How does one preserve their wealth in the mean time? I just feel like my hard work isn't going for anything. I'm being robbed to pay for wars I don't support. I, an immortalist, am being robbed through the mechanics of inflation so that others can be killed and the rest of us will loose our privacy... yay Sounds arrogant and self obsessed, yes... but I only mean to be an icon irony in a world of murder.

Our only hope is that the CIA will engineer a 9-11 type terrorist attack on China, and then pin it on UIghur seperatists ( the Islamic turkic speaking minority in the Northeast of China) allied to Al Queda.

That will get the Chinese afraid of Islamic terrorism, and get them behind our war on terrorism. Then the Chinese will be happy to forgive all of our debts to them in order to bankroll our war machine.

So.. we can keep on waging all the wars we want! Even conquer Iran.
So we will be able to keep spending blood, but we wont have to spend money!
Wont that be great! And our economy will be saved!

Interesting that you mentioned that, as a matter of fact there is Islamic terrorism that goes on in west China. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LZpiyO_mxUQ&feature=related[/youtube]

Is there really anything more to it than just girl power and the military being a symbol of strength?

They're in the northwest, not the northeast.
