"In the Zoo TV Tour, it was about racism"
I don't recall ever hearing a version of this song from the ZooTV tour that was about racism. The Sydney video is clearly a send-up of 80's Cold War hyper-conservatism (with Bono in the aviators, trucker cap, and camo pants), while the version from Wembley Stadium in 1993 involves Bono railing on the western powers for failure to intervene in Bosnia. I don't know if this latter is what you mean by "racism" (although Bosnians are white), but either way the line quoted above is wrong. The Chief 18:22, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
- I meant the swastikas on the video screens and the "we must never let it happen again" (referring to the holocaust) remark before the solo. Maybe "nazism" would fit better. --Kristbg 21:18, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
