Crimes in Palestine

Emile Dubois

The punishment of Gaza

Is a crime against humanity

While Israel acts with impunity

The world seems powerless to hold it to accountability

The conscripts come and go

Lacking empathy yet have the temerity to ascribe themselves in a glow.

The world's 'most moral army' fights with state of the art machinery against those who only have sticks and stones

From time to time there will be a crude response that breaks through

This is then front page news with the peddled narrative 'it's about Jew's'

Yet when Gaza is being bombarded there's nothing on the other hand

 There's an ignorance to Ramallah too. The settlements keep expanding, separating communities it's a slow genocide

Land, culture and resources are stolen. Weapons tested and spirits broken

This collective punishment is a crime against us all

Silence is complicity

And once they've dealt with Palestinians ..who will be next?

    I agree with what you say, why does the world seem to think that Israel is not doing wrong.

    • Emile Dubois

      For that you have to look behind the facade of 'democratic' imperial powers who run the world...for in the shadows sits the real control with Zionist paymasters.
