You Say, I say
You say I have the right to defend myself.
I say respect the same right for your victims.
You say, I want to finish them all "human animals."
I say, even animals have right too.
You say, never again.
I say, you should look in the mirror.
You say, Greater Israel.
I say, two state solution.
You say, we've unrolled a second Nakba.
I say, so is this your idea of self-defense?
You say, nuke Gaza.
I say, you're too greedy for its prime property.
You say, I will rule Gaza indefinitely.
I say, wasn't this the plan all along?
You say, I will bring same fire to Lebanon.
I say, sorry you can't help it.
You say, ethnic cleansing in whisper.
I say, it's already loud and clear.
You say, I want to donate baby incubators.
I say, too late, they're all dead.
You say, I want peace.
I say, practice repentance first.
