Jews vs Palestinians - it must end

Why this never ending hate Where impressionable young men swallow jaundiced bait, To kill and maim - all in the name of their one prophet, Unleashing burning mayhem with rocket after rocket. Has discourse and humanity disintegrated to this point, Where the only leaders they invariably anoint Preach such hatred and revenge, With glaring eyes and fingers tightly clenched. Generations go to die leaving mother's sadly wailing, The guns they hold no longer just for playing, A dream of glory as yet another blessed martyr, The sad byproduct of this never-ending intifada. Were only calmer minds at play, Leaders who knew the words they had to say, To avert such bloodshed that's never a solution, The only outcome despair and persecution. Violence is a twin, a spawn of the same seed, Destruction not discourse it's destiny to lead, Strength is shown by character, tenacity and grit, Mandela proved the adage to never ever quit. Jews and Palestinians cousins by another name So very different and yet so very much the same, Two thousands years of sharing this small land, A differing religion but surely the same band. Enough this constant slaughter tearing families apart, Let wiser minds prevail in making a new start, Nothing is impossible when truth and will combine, A path to coexistence is what each must define. Will it be easy no, but clearly it's a must, It starts with creating empathy and a modicum of trust, The alternative unthinkable, impossible to bear, As misery and death the only certainty they'll share.
