Thank You. Review about Fire On Babylon Fire on Babylon | Reviewer: Elijah Ras Baba | 12/18/08 I think you've both missed a subtle point. This song is most likely more about the concept of 'Babylon.' Not literally the current city of Babylon, nor a person literally named Babylon. Babylon as a metaphor embodies an oppressive government, corrupt society and a Godlessness who imposes it's own Will regardless of the Will of the people. Mental and Literal slavery; like the Isrealites imprisoned in Babylon by the Assyrians - This song is a call to action and complete condemnation of the 'modern' Babylon which is this society of greed and material gain that so many western countries (most guilty the one I&I was born into) have been seduced by. The fire in this song is also a metaphor - to set fire on this world of hard-hearted ignorance we must all learn to love and be patient with each other; Give up our obsession with wealth and power; then accept that no race is superior or inferior and that we are all One. Love, Elijah Ras Baba Abdul you misinterpret. | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/20/08 I think you miss understand what she is trying to say Mo'. I am sorry for all Sinead's unfortunate treatment as a child. Her Mother sounds like all the other confused, self-centred, bitter parents who lash out towards their children. Why do they always do this? I will never know. I guess Abdul & Sinead share the similar understanding that 'how can an omniscient being like God allow such actions', be it war or parental abuse? Fir on who ? | Reviewer: Abdul-Hameed | 1/8/08 Can't you see what did your country army did to my country? Almost 2 millions killed in Iraq! 4.5 millions left their homes! 400.000 innocent poeple are in prisons! more than 10.000 women are in prisons and most of them have been raped! Almost 7000 childs are in prisons! millions of widows! And then comes a druggery like you to say fir on Babylon? I won't say fir on Ireland because Irish people are honored and have been fighting for their freedom for years!! I say let the fire be on people like you! I feel sorry and sad that you are an Irish!!!!!
