Stop the killings and set the people free

Stop the killings and set the people free
Shay Cullen

Another Herod, worse that history tells,
He bombs the Gaza victims with deadly US shells.
Mostly women and children, twenty-three thousand, even more are dead,
A hundred thousand more wounded? suffering in tents,
with starvation, hunger, a burning desire for bread.

Herod wages a war of destruction that cannot and never will succeed,
To kill the Gazanias burning desire for justice as they suffer, bleed.
Who cannot see that Herod and his genocidal men,
Are driven by fanatical hatred, they will destroy Israel’s name again.

What is a nation without the love of neighbor, compassion for the poor?
They only oppress and slaughter, destroy while a million more Gazanias suffer and endure.

Taking revenge for atrocities beyond all that is proportionate and in the name of self-defense,
killing babies, and their mothers, a greater atrocity there can be no pretense.

They have gone beyond what human nature can endure and bear,
There is no mercy, pause, nothing just or fair,

No apology, no relief, their statements are fake news and propaganda trash,
The truth will out, their government will burn and crash.

May the world condemn the evil that we see,
The good people in Israel rise up and stop the genocide and set the people free.

Justice and action of the world to Gaza must surely come
with more aid and a two-nation deal,
To stop the murders and the killings may there be peace true and real.

End.
