Amnesty International published a report early Wednesday accusing Israel of war crimes in its 50-day war with Hamas in the Gaza Strip this summer, saying its military showed “callous indifference” to civilians in airstrikes on homes that felled entire families. NY Times, November 4, 2014
Global sympathies aroused supporting disheartened
Palestinians constantly suffering imposed indignities
Humiliated confused cheated cursed outraged
Only recourse uncivil wronged rights
Born into unfortunate misbegotten circumstance
In-denial bias prejudice intolerance narrow-mindedness
Everything old is new again
Long deserving own sovereign homeland
There are more than fifty
Israel laws that discriminate against
Palestinian citizens of Israel including
Land access education criminal procedures
Nakba Catastrophe Palestine’s native inhabitants
Were turned into stateless refugees
Second class non-citizens driven out
Apartheid however you label it
Profound inequality enforcing conspiracy laws
Series of walls military checkpoints
Separating displaced refugees West Bank
Gaza Strip Golan Heights families
Twisted armlock crying Uncle Sam
Ungrateful one time too many
Lobbyists playing politricks mistreated threats
Unsettled grievances claiming tsouris heartburn
