Spyware

It was no surprise reading Israel run this practice 
and sell it to anyone with money to pay.
Israel, this enclave in an Arabic world, is an anomaly
its inhabitant lives in a bubble they call democracy.
It brokers no criticism, not even in its mildest form
and calls people who they find disagreeable:  
antisemitic or haters.
They picked up a golden nugget called victimhood
to the point, they believe the whole world hates them.
Israel is not a victim but a ferociously aggressive state
what will never give up its shabby mentality,
But it can be remedied if other countries stop all trade
with land, whose psyche needs an adjustment.

This poem has an important political and moral message. In the U.S. and elsewhere, a political culture exists in which any criticism of Israel is conflated with antisemitism. This demagoguery is aimed at shutting down any discussion of the endless stream of human rights violations against the Palestinians. The victims have become victimizers. Thank you for reminding us that we must not tolerate this!

So deeply understandable. Nice one.
