hang the death<br \/>\nOf those we knew<br \/>\nTheir faces broken bodies<br \/>\nLying in the dust<br \/>\nTomorrow it could well be me<br \/>\nOr you<\/p>\n<p>Our houses smashed to smithereens<br \/>\nNo windows and no doors<br \/>\nSo near to collapsing<br \/>\nIts exuding from your pores<br \/>\nThe agony the total fear<br \/>\nThe  unclassifiability<br \/>\nThe inconsequence of being<br \/>\nThe distortion and disparity<\/p>\n<p>All we had was family<br \/>\nAn affinity and ancestry<br \/>\nNo time to love for too much hate<br \/>\nDevision all we saw<br \/>\nBickering conflicting hostile<br \/>\nAnd contradictory<br \/>\nEveryone an alien<br \/>\nWith the threat of war<\/p>\n<p>Night time raids<br \/>\nThe jackals snarling<br \/>\nArrogance is everywhere<br \/>\nWe are under the great boot<br \/>\nOf Zionism the despair<br \/>\nWe are where we should not be<br \/>\nThe subordinate the subsidiary<br \/>\nOutclassed outshone beggars we<br \/>\nNeed to bow down instantly<\/p>\n<p>Our life here is being dismantled<br \/>\nCut off from humanity<br \/>\nQuarantined in our own ghetto<br \/>\nEncircled by the powers to be<br \/>\nFracture rupture bomb and bellow<br \/>\nAmputate behead dismember<br \/>\nOstracize eternity<br \/>\nAnd Preclude us from the great agenda<\/p>\n<p>Rubble dust and hopeless tension<br \/>\nAnger tears and sleepless nights<br \/>\nBedlam chaos mayhem figures<br \/>\nUnruliness its in the whites<br \/>\nOf everybodys eyes the hunger<br \/>\nAnger turmoil and affray<br \/>\nViolence it is so apparent<br \/>\nEverywhere in disarray<\/p>\n<p>What gets into your very marrow<br \/>\nThe confusion everywhere<br \/>\nPeople are unhinged and unsettled<br \/>\nEntangled in so much despair<br \/>\nHow we came to ever be here<br \/>\nWith the zionists  in our face<br \/>\nThe bitter end feels ever closer<br \/>\nBut coming at us at a pace<\/p>\n<p>We children shake we shake and shiver<br \/>\nA part of this bitter fued<br \/>\nThis assembly of the ugly<br \/>\nHonestly we now allude<br \/>\nTo fighting and slapping and with our expletives<br \/>\nNeed to reach the robotic ears<br \/>\nProgrammed relics of the battles<br \/>\nMagnified in all our fears<\/p>\n<p>The Torah says the state of Israel<br \/>\nCan never be a state at all<br \/>\nSince it says this in the scriptures<br \/>\nAnd BEN gurion he was no fool<br \/>\nWent against the powers of glory<br \/>\nAnd took the mandate fair and square<br \/>\nFrom the British over Balfour<br \/>\nAnd since then being made to share<\/p>\n<p>Massacres and ethnic cleansing<br \/>\nMurders of the Zionist kind<br \/>\nThere is no permanence anymore here<br \/>\nNot even the most enquiring mind<br \/>\nCan come up with a timeless answer<br \/>\nA constant and long lasting path<br \/>\nOut of what is hell on earth<br \/>\nAgainst each interlude of wrath<\/p>\n<p>Pressure on our education<br \/>\nSchools in tatters everywhere<br \/>\nMassive classes significantly shorter<br \/>\nSocial tension lack of  care<br \/>\nThe sick get sicker more restrictions<br \/>\nCome from Israel everyday<br \/>\nWater and our sanitation<br \/>\nThey have blown all that away<\/p>\n<p>Salination has hit our water<br \/>\nAgriculture too is bad<br \/>\nFishing creates its own challenge<br \/>\nWaste retrieval its all sad<br \/>\nInadequate and so more illness<br \/>\nRaw sewage is pumped in the  sea<br \/>\nIt really makes no sense to do this<br \/>\nBut no one cares effectively<\/p>\n<p>As children growing up its shameful<br \/>\nEvery part of every day<br \/>\nWe see the soldiers hear their rifles<br \/>\nKnow their their trucks are not far away<br \/>\nWe children throw the rocks we pick up<br \/>\nAnd take the argument to those<br \/>\nRagged soldiers at the outposts<br \/>\nWith them the hatred grows and grows<\/p>\n<p>Life for us is so restricted<br \/>\nReally nothing can we do<br \/>\nIt all goes back to 48<br \/>\nWhen they got their independence through<br \/>\n5.8 per cent of land soon increased<br \/>\nTo 56<br \/>\nAnd now ofcourse they have most of  it<br \/>\nAnd Palestine is in a fix.<\/p>\n<p>What a dreadful revolution<br \/>\nBritain just gave their land away<br \/>\nAnd the Zionist cleansed the borders<br \/>\nAnd made the Palestinians pay<br \/>\nAll that power and might and fury<br \/>\nTore the regime clean away<br \/>\nLeft us powerless without teeth<br \/>\nDisabled therefore not in play<\/p>\n<p>The undoing and the overthrow<br \/>\nThe levelling as well we know<br \/>\nSo much hardship so much pain<br \/>\nWhilst israeli&#8217;s move in and just gain<br \/>\nFrom France and Europe they now arrive<br \/>\nCan they possibly survive<br \/>\nWhether its  safe to be there or not<br \/>\nThey are coming in every month there&#8217;s a lot<br \/>\nBuilding more houses where will we go<br \/>\nNo one is listening and all that woe<br \/>\nThe angst and the anguish what shall  we do<br \/>\nIts genocide people<br \/>\nAnd its all down  to you<\/p>\n<p>We blame the British and the UN<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For children living now There is no future Life is day to
