Oh but that [war criminals] is what they will be called in the arab countries. Along with other pretty nicknames like infidels and crusaders.
foxnews. nuff said.
So Bono has written a nice little colum for the times to start of 2010 about all the issues in the world he cares about. It is worth a read all in all ... even if you don?t generally agree with Bono.

What stuck out for me is the short paragraph about intellectual property owners where he whines about how bad all that Filesharing has hit the music-industries profits.
That?s the same Bono that speaks out publically for "the global fund", an organisation that (amoung other things) wants the pharma industry to not use it?s patents (their intellectual property) so that cheap generic drugs can be made for sick people in poor countries, well aware that such a step will decrease the pharma industries profits.
Of course I?m well aware that comparing life-saving medicine to music is a bit of a stretch ... but I think that calling Bono out for having double standarts on different sorts of intellectual property is justified no less.
When it's his intellectual property being 'pirated' then it matters.What stuck out for me is the short paragraph about intellectual property owners where he whines about how bad all that Filesharing has hit the music-industries profits.
Because upstanding, God-fearing Christians have never done anything immoral, amirite? I hate Fox News.[YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cVjuO5v5Cts[/YOUTUBE]

Well yeah, those bastards put up a hell of a fight.
(The octopus, I mean. Not the Koreans.)
