Although this video of third graders singing “Thank You Soldiers” has been around, I think, for a year, I was not aware of it until a reader just sent it to me. I don’t suspect that Libyan children who just lost their parents will be singing this song. The story of the song by the songwriter is here.
As my reader said: “This is all a very unfortunate mix of public school propaganda, Christianity, and war.”
