This one does seem to be about the war in Iraq.

"Giving our blood To the doomsday machine"

That would be a reference to George Bush's war, and his apparent desire to destroy the world.

"Fighting for ravaged land"

Iraq is about as ravaged as you can get.

"Forgot what we were fighting for A worthless aim"

It's true; ther war has gone on for so long that few can instantly recall the meaning behind it.

The lyrics are basiucally anti-war. Quite simple, really. The entire album, from front to back, has an extremely post-apocalyptic feel to it, whihc is the aftermath of the end of the world, brough about by wars and meaningless aggression.
