when bombs fall

When bombs fall

The defense minister of Israel threatens to bomb
Lebanon back to the stone age
Last time a person said this his name was Hitler
If, the nice-mannered Putin had said this about
Ukraine, the otherwise polite Guardian with the
intrepid Marina Hyde would be in righteous rage, 
followed by Jonathan Freeman saying that the
the remarks were taken out of context.
Our Jonathan is an intellectual who speaks softly 
and has a great vocabulary
I read in a newspaper about the German migration 
began 200 years ago to whiten the country 
Having been to Brazil many times, I can't say if 
the writing was successful, except for the chandler
whose first name was Hans and had red hair
Muslims leaving France because they cannot wear
the hijab, one notices they are not going to
say Pakistan, but to other western nations, that
allow wearing religious symbol
As for orthodox Jews, they were black coats 
and fetching black hats, the enlightened skull caps
they also ignore the dress code
There are many Muslims in France the right-wing politicians wouldn't mind if they all left
