It¡¯s the age-old conflict, the territorial dispute
|
Endless accusations flying about who has wronged who
|
Desperate determination to show no sign of weakness
|
The leaders take action while their people pay the consequences
|
Abandoning diplomacy, those in power unwilling to yield
|
Playing stupid fucking politics that just get people killed
|
Deciding that all out aggression is the best way to defend
|
so the cycle of violence starts all over again
|
It¡¯s a bloodbath in the west bank
|
There is no end in sight
|
Both sides are so consumed with avenging death
|
that there¡¯s no respect for life
|
Israeli soldiers are gunning down Palestinians
|
Murdering children for throwing stones
|
While Hamas is recruiting children to become martyrs
|
and murder more Israelis as suicide bombers
|
But the biggest obscenity of all of this hateful hostility
|
has been reducing through action and rhetoric into a subhuman enemy
|
The dehumanization of one another
|
has been the justification for the horrific brutality
|
It¡¯s a bloodbath in the Gaza strip
|
There is no end in sight
|
Both sides are so consumed with avenging death
|
that there¡¯s no respect for life
|
How many more?
|
How long?
|
Who¡¯s right?
|
Who¡¯s wrong?
|
Are they really so bloodthirsty in their hatred for the enemy
|
that they¡¯re willing to disregard their own peoples safety?
|
They make their own people targets with every act of aggression
|
All in the name of teaching the enemy a lesson
|
Innocent people imprisoned by the violence that the conflict creates
|
Warmongers and butchers deciding everyone¡¯s fate
|
How will there ever be peace with such human rights abuses?
|
When you dehumanize humans then all humanity loses
|
It¡¯s a bloodbath in Bethlehem
|
There is no end in sight
|
Both sides are so consumed with avenging death
|
that there¡¯s no respect for life
|
