After watching the music video about a dozen times, what I saw was a mix of clips of dancing with clips of war. The way I see it, the message here is about the military is doing everything in their power to ensure that the rest of us (especially those who are happy enough to be dancing) are safe and sound. In other words, I believe the song is saying "We should be thankful of the military for keeping threats at bay."
