It would have been John Lennon’s 70th birthday yesterday. It was also the day I got an email forward that I think is worth sharing with you on The Videocrat. It’s a brilliant open letter to Lady Gaga from a disappointed gay Iraqi fan named Sa’ad. For those of you who don’t know, Lady Gaga has been on this fervent gay military rights bender in the media for the past few weeks. As a fan myself, the letter really confirmed what I’ve been thinking about it myself. It’s shocking that no one’s pointing out what Sa’ad has noticed. Dear Gaga, Let me begin by saying that I am an admirer of your work. Over the past month or so I have watched you make every public appearance revolve around the issue of allowing gay men and women to serve openly in the US military. At the VMAs your statement was clear: Ex-soldiers who had been discharged for being homosexual escorted you to the event.
My question to you (and I have a few) my dear Gaga is simple: Why are you promoting war? Ei: The Electronic Intifada.
Help.
