Tolls the count

As the world community Asks Israel to stand down. Hamas murders with impunity Then flees underground. Isreal lives under scrutiny And still held to account. While terrorists have immunity To pass their AKs around. Free countries need unity Not gloomy storm clouds. When we stand together Evil cowers in a shroud. Thus, let us speak fluently Yet justly so out loud. There's no immunity for murder And God tolls the count.

Now that an American was killed in CA just standing there, I hopeAmericans wake to the Marxist threat to us all..other countries are in danger too, Americans no longer safe. Terrorists have crossed our borders. Surely you know Jews on campuses in the USA are no longer safe! CNN is a poison channel. They lie with abandon, Hamas has offices in the NYT bling. Be aware! I won’t repost the poems here. Pangie xxxx

You are spot-on, RJ. People accept utter crap and complete illogic. Such as: Hamas has governed Gaza since 2006 and impoverished her residents. So who do those residents/Palestinians go after? -- Hamas? No! They go after Israel. Talk about Jew-hatred. Theirs is sky-high. ~ gw

Thank You, Joe. Uncertain times we live in. It's stunning the crap people will accept. And never say a word. Shame. Stay creative.
