West Bank

Share

Right out of Jackson’s book,

leaving a trail of tears.

People leave their ancestral homes.

More raids, more arrests.

Armed Israeli soldiers driving people off their land.

West of the Jordan river,

Three zones deposed.

Settler  - a person who moves with a group of others to live in a new country or area.

The same British settlers on stolen Native American land…

Of course your buddies support you!

Israel will not become the new United States.

“Build the wall, build the wall” they chant.

The walls have been built.

Thirty-seven miles long, to separate the Palestinians 

from the Isrealis…in their own land.

An open air prison, checkpoints galore.

Even the devil is shocked at the careful details put into this plan.

Women give birth at checkpoints.

Isn't it ironic? Life continues even in death?

Collective punishment, kill them all.

After all, “All Muslims must die”.

No rights, no wrong

Detained without charge.

Checkpoints in my own home,

the South African apartheid never ended.
