I'm guessing he's speaking metaphorically, as usual. Perhaps by "makeup" he means the hatred that young wanna-be terrorists are fed in order to stir their anger enough to make them attack...??

He's talking about the mostly very young (under 18 ) armies that middle-eastern countries have. Think camo face paint. P wrote this song just after the Libya air attacks, so it's mostly about his fear of impending war.
