This t-shirt is to increase awareness of how often the US government
meddles in the political systems of other countries - not for
the interests of those countries' peoples, or even for the interests
of the American people, but mostly for the self interest of those
in government. It is a satirical take on the concept of a rock'n'roll
tour, and the back of the shirt lists all of the countries "visited",
or interfered with, by the CIA and/or US troops between 1965 and
2004. The text on the back of the shirt is: "KILLING IN OUR
NAME U.S. WORLD TOUR (1965-2004) VIETNAM · DOMINICAN REBUBLIC
· GUATEMALA · GREECE · LAOS · CHINA · NORTH KOREA
· BOLIVIA · EL SALVADOR · CAMBODIA · CHILE · URUGUAY ·
CYPRUS · ANGOLA · NICARAGUA · ZAMBIA · GRENADA · LEBANON
· LIBYA · HAITI · IRAN · PANAMA · BULGARIA · SOMAILIA
· ZAIRE · CONGO · QATAR · SUDAN · YUGOSLAVIA · NIGERIA
· AFGHANISTAN · YEMEN · PHILIPPINES · VENEZUELA
· ZIMBABWE · IRAQ · U.S.A.".

Peace web site and MediaLens.org.
This t-shirt is pro-peace and pro-American, and don't let any
dumbass tell you otherwise. Being American isn't about bombing
other countries to promote big business abroad. Anyone who has
the interests of America and the rest of the planet at heart would
agree that we don't want the US government "killing in our
name".
