      I just watched a bbc 2 live aid documentary where They have re written history! And even Geldof denied he’d said. “ just give us your f%#ing money” I remember it clearly.. where there were two occasions where he swore using the f - Word.... that day, the other was where he grabbed the mic and said the above! There are no clips on here and the bbc no doubt deleted the footage..? Millions of us heard it and repeated it the next day. yet they straight up deny it ever happened!? The question is.. why? Hmmm reminds me of Owell’s 1984 the editing of history.......

      Sir Wojak IV “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

      So the money raised from this didn’t feed starving people, it funded violence. The fact that starvation and wars still exist is very telling when both could be ended. Check out Frank Zappa and the others that came out of Laurel Canyon and from military/secret service families. By this I mean The Doors, The Byrds, The Mamas and the Papas etc. The music is great but it’s highly likely the counter culture movement and the drugs that went with it were pushed.

      The money went where it was supposed to go, to help the people in Africa. It may not have fixed the problem but went a long to helping & with it, things would have been so much worst. It went to Africa, there were too many people all over the world watching , making sure that it did. Personal profit was not the goal, contrary to the belief of those that can’t understand helping the fellow man. If you seriously think that money went anywhere else, you’re crazy. Nobody could have gotten away with doing that, the whole world was watching.

      Live aid was such a bs act.... Those countries are still in SAME CONDITION. SO basically that aid ONLY saved the day, thats all... Unless developed countries put some real effort to improve the conditions in those countries, nothing will ever change.... So bob geldof did some effort, I respect that, but as u ve seen for decades, it was a dud.

    When he thumped that table, that was a bang that was heard around the world. What a bang, what a man, what a time. It was the best of times it was the worst of times, but one man sat in the chaos and called out the numbers. That was a call that was heard around the world. When he looked at me his gaze pierced straight into my soul. It was a gaze that was seen around the world. Bang, man, gaze, call, numbers. Fook!
