It is a reality.â Mr. Young made no distinction between the Vietnam War, during which Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young earned a reputation for political activism, and the war in Iraq, which their tour condemned with songs like âLetâs Impeach the President.â âIt is all the same war, and it hurts everybody,â he said. âItâs a wrong way to solve a problem,â he said, adding that Americans were deluded if they thought they were liberating Iraq.
