This video was made by an outfit called Agit-pop on behalf of Stop the Iraqi Oil Law. It's a great example of the kind of message that would never be aired by the commercial media, but can be broadcast to a pretty chunky audience via You-tube and other "web 2.0" tools.

The part where the kid screams, "The Americans are animals -- they are scum!" is just classic. Hearts and minds, folks, hearts and minds.
