End Game

We’ve seen this picture too many times before
same old game we know the score
pathological hatred fed by fear and propaganda
in service of a remorseless barbaric agenda

Deranged justification for a so-called holy war
depravity rage brutality and gore
cruelty and sickness for all to see
hellbent on killing all Jews from the river to the sea

What kind of analysis would come from an honest therapist
about people who bestow martyrdom on murderers and rapists
who adopt a charter that says ethnic cleansing is justified
and can’t see the difference between defense and genocide

And what of the enablers who deny or are ignorant of history
promoting excuses, lies and faux moral equivalency
while others stand back and pretend they don’t see
or say who cares, it doesn’t affect me

But understand this, as the conflict continues to rage
more people join in and others try to turn the page
as the perpetrators try to exterminate every Jew
sooner or later they will come for you

For there’s no compromising with evil no middle ground
Satan is forever prowling around
always looking for more victims be it people or nations
his ultimate aim, like the jihadis’, is world domination

I think your last stanza sums up the reality of the situation in the world today.Too many nations allow the brutal minority or radical elements run the government!

Pray that the Democracy we have in the USA will prevail and rid our lawmakers of the radicals we have today.

I appreciate that you took the time to read it, Clentin. Blessings to you!
