Battle for the Lone-Star State

   The plans had been laid
     their dues had been paid
   10,000 enraged Mexicans
     heading north to behead Texans

   For Texans had 'stolen their land'
     almost two centuries ago
   and with America looking weak as can be
     Mexicans would not be denied liberty

   The operation was seamless
     50,00 Texans slain
   Jubilation in Mexico's capital
     Texas will be ours again!

   All across the Spanish-speaking globe
     supporters did rally
   demanding millions more Texans die
     in the name of justice, MLM, and DEI                 Mexican Lives Matter

   But Texans fought back
     they were not to be denied
   Lone-star state soldiers headed south
     for Texas they were ready to die

   The world jeered and hooted
     called Texans white racists and worse
   Violence flared at every protest
     Times were tense and terse ... 

   You may think all this a fantasy
     and many with you would agree
   But I am Jewish-Israeli
     Mexico and Texas are Gaza and Israel 
     ~ This is hard reality for my family and me

What Hamas done was unforgivable and Israel has every right to defend itself. Using their own people as shields and using schools and hospitals as cover shows what kind of people they are. They don't deserve to exist, they are scum. Tom
