Zionist Crimes

In lands where olive trees were once tended with care
echoes of laughter from the indigenous ones
beneath a sky where foreigners cast their lies

Where dreams were lost and all hope died
children's eyes opened wide with fear
memories of peace now blurred and unclear

Horrors whispered in the dark of night
Zionists crimes of plunder and plight
fields once fertile now stolen by knife

In the name of the mafia they've taken my child's life

Like Nazi's they should face the International Court of Justice, its a genocide. Your poem is very touching.

It's so sad. Unbelievably sad. My mental health had taken a toll because of these atrocities. You had written so well about this stark reality. If you have time... read my poem, The Making of a Genocide.

Aysha, the killing of innocents represents the epitome of bad. There are many of us who cry over what has happened. We believe there is always a peaceful solution to our differences, Killing and war are the ultimate evil. Many of us are feeling this pain and have empathy. It's hard to see this ending well. While there's no way to undo any of this, we could learn something better from it if we actually look at the horror with empathy. Thank-you for letting me feel what you feel.

Ideologies at the expense of humanity, will always bring this about, this time is Zionism, but it has taken many forms over the course of history. Thank you for your kind words.

Sad one. I can't imagine what it must be like living in those areas today and it is not going away until Jesus returns to earth. Sara K
