RZA: That was a bad thing, yo. Y’knah’mean? It’s a bad thing, first of all, because you’ve got people over there being oppressed y’knah’mean? People over there going through struggles. People from over here going over there dying. Young people, y’knah’mean? The people that could be doctors, ministers, nurses and scientists are over there being shot, killed, at 2, 5, 10 a day some time.
