Isn't it funny how the continentals talk about either their motherland or fatherland, we talk about the homeland, and England is just England. I see a lot of people have thought about this: google.com

The West's anti-national anthem, Imagine. A good article showing that the pianist who showed up at the Bataclan actually does this all the time at such incidents; and the meaning and reality-denying use of John Lennon's Imagine. Pictures were snapped of him on his bicycle heading to the Bataclan, piano in tow, determinedly heading to the scene of the tragedy. While playing, onlookers took videos and photographed him, ostensibly due to the heavy contrast of something so beautiful and hopeful amidst a scene that is so horrific. People across the West wept, they cheered, and generally embraced the gravitas of that moment, exemplified in the powerful message of that legendary Beatle…. Imagine there’s no countries, It isn’t hard to do Nothing to kill or die for, And no religion, too Imagine all the people living life in peace… . . . But as it turns out, going to scenes of violent destruction and playing the piano is something that Davide, well, kind of just does. He’s known as the “war-zone pianist,” who “travels around conflict zones, playing the piano, forming a cultural barrier between citizens and oppression.” more, , , americanthinker.com
