Michael Jacksons Army of Love
It's too bad that critics of the video never bothered to look at the positive messages
and symbols, and foolishly said it was celebrating fascism or dictatorship.
when merideth interviewed Michael and Lisa
and she was condemning his history teaser
as being facist
as were many other critics
Michael said it was his Army of Love
777 is the band on his left arm _the number of God and divine unity
the star on his right arm also has significance _ Its is the star of esperanto
little known is that not only is not only the green star on Michael's uniform a long-time, historical symbol
of the International peaceful Language, Esperanto, but also that much of the background singing
is in Esperanto. For example, "Ni konstruas i tiun skulptaon en la nomo de iuj landoj kaj tutmonda
patrineco kaj la kuracpovo de la muziko." This means "We build this sculpture in the name of every
nd the global motherhood and healing power of music."

The opening speech and choral music in the video are in Esperanto.
The speech (translated) says (in part):
"... everyone of the world builds this sculpture in the name of
worldwide motherhood and love, and the healing power of music."
The same guy (the construction foreman) later says (translated)
"Come here!" while motioning to others.
The green star symbol of Esperanto shows up as a giant metal star,
the metal star on Michael's shoulder, and the star on the caps of the
(multi-ethnic) soldiers, who instead of saluting, do Michael's dance
moves at the Arch of Triumph.
Looking at the video in this context, together with the cinematography,
it's a beautiful work of art with a sweet message, that of healing music
conquering the world and bringing joy.
This copy of the video has the Esperanto captioned, after about a 50-
second intro with some comments in French (e.g. filmed over 10 days,
costing 7.5 million francs, where the Esperanto starts, etc.):
