The Israel-Gaza War

On October the 7th, the precarious peace of the disputed ancient lands began to cease. The enraged avengers brought the Al-Aqsa flood that deluged the Re'im music festival with blood. Then very swiftly came the lopsided response that decimated women and children at once. The zionists' war machine sweeps the Gazan land, rendering its closely compacted earth to flatland. The Mosques, churches, schools, and hospitals are all gone. Scores wail uncontrollably aloud as they mourn. Having no point of refuge, refugees take flight as they seek for bombshelters with no hopes in sight. Hamas belligerents their explosive arrows throw at overwhelmed defenses of an ageold foe. Zionists with torrential explosives respond with offensive operations within and beyond. Oh that the Gaza strip might tranquility know! Oh that the blood in the West bank would cease to flow! Oh that Israel would flourish and as a nation grow! Oh that the warring factions would the seed of peace sow! Oh that the two warring factions would merry and dance! Oh that the two state solution was given a chance!
