this is my first submission but i have been a customer for a while now...so show some love/constructive criticism...the idea is basic : the contradictions involved in war---yes it is politcal but it is really a tongue in cheek commentary---so let's have it...

i like.'nuff said?
$5 :bigthumb:

Nice, I like the idea, and the picture!
$5

It would be better centered, IMHO

Very Nice!!

you kick ass man

only thing I don't like is that the guy is so obviously arab....make him more generic looking. Otherwise I love it.

damn CFS! that's mad racist!
just kidding...thanks for the comment

center it up, but other than that really cool. Gets instant attention

that guy looks like my uncle. i assume he smells as bad.

Yo, 20. I wouldn't wear this shirt. It pretty much is the same slogan Yassir Arafat gave at the UN when he brought a olive branch and a gun to his speech. Buit at the same time the logo of the IDF has an olive branch and a sword also. So, good job, much respect. We don't need to argue bout it. 5 star rating.

Also, in my opionion, the kalishnokov rifle is the the embodiment of the enemy of the free world. Mad love though all the same.

I third the motion to center the guy. Killer design otherwise.

(re: centering)i am not very hard lined about the position of the graphic...i just like shirts like that sometimes...if that was the difference of printing or not i would obviously move it...thanks for the comments

i like it alot

love the colors

and the idea

Heh, that's pretty rad.
May I say that I would like it even better if the guy looked a bit like a certain sort of shrub?
...but that's pretty controversial.
$5.

It's a great concept to express, but the
execution isn't the most engaging
way to say it. Just to be clear
I would like to say what I think this
design is communicating --> It's
saying that there are some who give
the appearance that they want
peace when in reality all they want
is war. When he was alive Yasser
Arafat did this constantly.

Here's a well done Threadless design
that expresses the facade of peace
some use to mask their intentions
of bringing death.

I like it better against the gray. And would it hurt to center it? 5 and buy, not matter what you do with it.

helo your interpretation is interesting, but for me the design has more to do with the motivations for individuals to fight a war...in this case peace is the motivation...the ultimate contradicitons of fighting to achieve peace is what interests me...this has nothing to with arafat suggesting that" some people pretend to want peace when all they really want is war" in my opinion no one really wants war, rather it is just a means to an end...and again in this case that ends is peace...

well, I missed that one, didn't I?

embrace your poison:

word!

great concept nonetheless

im in love $5

very clever, but i dont come to threadless for political shirts

that guy looks like pete townshend

another punch-you-in-the-face shirt. kill the red and black, give us another color combo. And center the image.

yakksoho- i looked up some images of townsend and you are actually right..thats random isn't it. and CFS said he looked to obviously arab?
"who" knew?

i like that shit!!!! and i don't think it should be centered, i like it off to the side. who wants to wear a shit with a centered design like all the other shit out there. it's good to be different!!!! leave it!!!!! great shirt!!!!

Ben, I commit fraud and voted twice for you buddy. On both my addresses, hope it puts u over the top.

so i love the concept, the side placement definitely works for me. I'd be more stoked on different colors, even though i understand the boldness of red and black. But as you are criticizing the concep ot war for peace shouldnt the title be No War for Peace? Other than that, its perfect!!!
