Here is part of the Blabbermouth report following by a link to the full interview: "Part of me is proud is because they chose Metallica," Hetfield said about the reports that the band's song "Enter Sandman" was used during the interrogation of Mohammed al-Qahtani � known as the 20th [9/11] hijacker � and that listening to the track brought al-Qahtani to tears "because he thought he was hearing the sound of Satan."
James added, "It's strong; it's music that's powerful. It represents something that they don't like � maybe freedom, aggression� I don't know� freedom of speech. And then part of me is kind of bummed about it that people worry about us being attached to some political statement because of that. We've got nothing to do with this and we're trying to be as apolitical as possible, 'cause I think politics and music, at least for us, don't mix. It separates people, [and] we wanna bring people together. So, so be it. I can't say 'Stop.' I can't say 'Do it.' It is just a thing � it's not good or bad." - more on this story
