Nice. Love the reactions

Great stuff!

Very good! I was wondering what this was all about this morning :)

well done!

This is great!

I see what you did there. I also imagine the group standing behind this stunt but I fear to type it... maybe you've not gone public yet!

Amazing, wonderful and very, very funny!

"Like Judith Miller?" -- So good.

love it, great way to make people think, i wonder if the media were all posting this news, maybe realey something would changa, wag the dog, lefty style.

Great stuff.

The Yes Men are the masters of deadpan activism!

Anyone else notice that the actress from Six Feet Under was in this?

Posted about it on my blog and and another blogger directed me here...terrific video...love the baby at the end. That's why there's Grandmothers against the War. Thanks!

Is this true?
As the guy said is like a dream. I still don't understand why my dumb president sent some troups in Afghanistan this summer (I'm French btw).

edit : Arf, it's not true :/. Good video anyway.

That's awesome and meaningful! Humorous too!

Reblogged it at my fun collection (ray3c.9gag.com) @ 9gag.com.

Keep up the good work!

Great! :-)

Fuderoso!

Great video, really well made. Sadly, life will never be that simple.

brilliant, important work. this will help people set intention for what is to come. thank you!

Um, that one black guy actually believed it... or am I missing something?

kinda sad, even though a good movie the people believed it. the ones with families in the war might have been overjoyed then crushed the second they found out the truth... think about these things before they're done.

As the sister of a soldier in the army I did not find this funny at all. The headline about the war ending grabbed my attention and I was quite shaken getting on the train this morning when I realized it was a hoax.
I am a big fan of the yes men and have been against this war from the start. I also think I have a sense of humor but this was deeply insensitive to those of us who have loved ones directly affected by the war in Iraq.

Who are they fighting?
Obama has expressed it already,
and will change..
Thats what we were fighting for,
Thats our stake,
Obama was the one, who spoke everything openly,
and toured the country,
Obama takes the pride,
It makes me sad, also because,
Reproaches against the Bush Administration,
turn into Demands, to a new Leader,
who presents us with a better America,
why presserising yourself now,
take it slow..
fight your frustration and be patient..

So did they also end the Afganistan "Occupation" to?

quite unethical getting all those peoples hopes up.

bullshit

Mandou bem!!

It really does have the feel of the NYTimes video stories.

I have a question, who are we fighting in Iraq? That the war would just be over? Only the ignorant, and the ignorant Left could fall for this.

If you think I'm just another Right Wing idiot, you're wrong. Answer the question, who are we fighting in Iraq? If you don't know, then you are part of the problem.
