Soft like sheep The Clan in white sheets Full of indignation And ignorance They march to their own battle cries Care not for innocents who have to die Their cause though evil, noble in their eyes As Hamas, they burn those with education who decry The violent aggressions Their deceptive practices and petty battles Become pretty slogans for the misguided ones

awesome pics you put with this relevant poetry, Arthur. Indeed, echoing what richard said, a poet with a social conscience.

Did you see the Jewish rabbi's speech at Mohammed's funeral Arthur? This poem reminds me of it. Well done.
