Henry Rollins Weighs In On Iraq Conflict
Australia’s Beat magazine caught up with Henry Rollins who says his spoken word tour in the U.S. has been going really well, perhaps due to the dialogue of the conflict in Iraq that the singer has strong feelings about. “It’s a whole new thing,” he says of the war that is now largely over. “I really wonder about that guy [George Bush]. In fact now I’m losing sleep over it. I’m serious; I’m actually losing sleep. What worries me is that there’s a lot more going on than Bush just wanting to disarm Hussein. There’s gotta be more to this. And I don’t know if it’s just an oil thing… it just doesn’t make a great deal of sense to me. Look how few other countries wanted in on this. Apart from it being a war and people dying there’s just something about that is unbelievable. It’s almost as if it’s put on, like a show.” Beat.com.au has since removed the article.
