This is one of the protest songs that came out during the Vietnam War. It speaks of how you dont need to have war. You can use diplomacy to the same effect as bombs and guns. He names off many of the reasons we have gone to war and have been against for years. Then all he asks for is to give peace a chance. If this song had come out during current years suchas during the war in Iraq it could have had the same effect i believe. There will always be some people that agree and some that dont but there are millions of people out there that say we should just pull out of the war and give peace a chance. however, others will say how they committed a huge offense directly against america and should pay for their actions. Just like back during the Vietnam War when the song did come out there would be a controversy over it.
