It's a sad state of affairs that this video still reflects what's going on in the world today. It's disgusting that this piece of art and truth was banned. People want to bury their heads in the sand I guess. Shameful.

I still recall the controversy when this came out. Madonna even had a special on NBC at night with Matt Lauer to talk about it. I had no real opinion of it at the time but it seemed kinda dark.
Years later watching the video.. while not one of my favorite songs of hers she was right on the money with what she predicted. Corporate greed, ultra neocon policies, and obsessions with fame. Actually surprisingly at the time Madonna backed down on the video after it got banned. I think out of respect for the political climate at the time and American troops.
Kinda sad looking back at it as she was ahead of the curve in what she predicted. She moved on from this video to the Britney kiss later that year and this video was forgotten about. Holds up well.
