Rafah

The city of over 3000 years
surviving, bustling and thriving
culture, history , ancient tales of mystery
seasons of love, death, sadness , joy and life
rulers changed, yet beauty and brick survived

Until this sad day
Rafah is no more
Zionists invaded
raped the women
snipers killed their children
starved and tortured is the Zionist way
seventy six years of evil
sadistic perverted minds
erased 3000 years of human kind
stolen land, and stolen souls
I cry for you Rafah of old
as my heart breaks for all of Palestine
every tear I shed for you
for every child
humanity should hold dear

Arthur, I find it sad that the Israeli leaders and their supporters can perpetrate war crimes on innocent civilians. They should know better based on their own history. This kind of hatred never ends well for anyone involved.
