Mutual Suicide

  Israel says Hamas-Gaza commits genocide
  murdering innocents while they paraglide

  Meanwhile Gazans weep and cry
  for thousands of innocents they claim died 

  I know a Chicagoan who really tried
  to understand the rationale of each side

    He's concluded it’s mutual suicide

Now you are sounding like Hilary Clinton on Libya, c. 2012: 'What does it matter now?' They (the US diplomats slaughtered in Bengazi) are all dead now, anyway.' Don't worry, John. I'll remove my tongue from my cheek now...
