Has anybody else noticed that Robbie Williams has mentioned the Vietnam War in his latest opus? Am I being paranoid or is there something totally wrong about this, or is the man with an 80 million pound record deal bringing his political conscience to the masses? We're talking about a war which resulted in the deaths of 3.5 million South East Asians (a huge fact barely mentioned in any western retrospective), a war of attrition and technology against a poor rural peasant population who merely wanted the right to self determination (sound familiar?). A war of such devastation that the only justification offered by Westmoreland (head of US forces) for US brutality was 'the average asian places less value on life than the average westerner'. Does mentioning Vietnam give you some sort of artistic credibilty? Will some Q magazine hack describe this as Williams new found maturity? One things for sure, seas of labotomized zombies will sway in unison with lighters held aloft.
