Morello on his Axis of Justice

Audioslave / Rage Against The Machine guitarist Tom Morello has been talking about his website - Axis of Justice - which provides a forum for the anti-war anti-Bush movement. Talking to Aussie music website Undercover, Morello explained: "It is really a crime up the Bush administration is up to. I've been doing some political work along with Serj Tankian from System of a Down. It is a way to build a bridge between progressive minded musicians, fans of music an grass roots political organisations to fight for social justice together". Back on to Bush he continued: "First of all my question would be 'What does George Bush know about democracy"?" he says. "He didn't even get the most votes in the Presidential election. I think it is a criminal war and while I am tremendously supportive of the young American men and women who are over there, who have been ordered to go over there and fight, I wish every one of them is able to come home safely to their families. The fact that, over the objections of the entire world basically, the US has gone and invaded and taken over Iraq. It is really a crime. We continue to speak out against it over here and try to diffuse as much democracy and dissent and to at least remind our leaders that those are American values as well that need to be preserved".
