Ghost Project High Alert, 2025

In 1963, Bob Dylan sang:

”Come you masters of war,
You that build the big guns,
You that build the death planes,
You that build all the bombs

You that hide behind walls,
You that hide behind desks,
I just want you to know,
I can see through your masks

Let me ask you one question,
Is your money that good?,
Will it buy you forgiveness,
Do you think that it could?

I think you will find,
When your death takes its toll,
All the money you made,
Will never buy back your soul”

Unfortunately, Bob Dylan’s Masters of War has not aged a day in over six decades. Today, there are more than 150 wars and armed conflicts ongoing around the world, each involving human rights violations and violence against children.

This work has been supported by Amnesty International.

Armed conflict = A situation in which one or more groups use weapons against another group. They may want to gain power or control over an area. All wars are armed conflicts, but not all armed conflicts are wars.
