The Peace Process
Three days of rage Muslims proclaimed
When Mr. Trump his statement made:
Israel's capital, he told them,
Is sure and true Jerusalem.
Were they Arab, Turk or Persian,
Even the Karachi version,
Muslims ranted, set on fire
Flag or woman, car or tire,
In ecstatic protest foaming,
In the craze of sorrow moaning,
Ready all to ride to heaven,
Kill some Jews to use as leaven;
How else could they achieve ascent,
Flee that which nothing to them meant?
Of course their friends both west and east
Were quick on Jewish blood to feast,
Quick to back empty Arab threats
How peace is now not even bets,
Forget how days, months, years before
Murder and mayhem were the lore
Of west bank tribes who solemn swear
Their honor on the guns they wear,
Who raise their kids to kill the Jews
And pay them well with western dues
That so-called friends of peace collect
To compensate trumped up neglect
Which pictures on the tv news
Help announcers their lies diffuse,
While from the schools of higher thought
Come mantras that promote such rot.
Peace is now farther than ever
Say those experts oh so clever
Who prattle on about the need
To pander to the Muslim greed
Or else, besides the hapless Jew,
They'll come and rape our women too.
Destroy our churches, swarm our streets,
Demand their rights to halal meats,
Which eagerly we do concede
To suburbs where we don't proceed,
Not police, not first responder,
Not the tourist who may wander
As they our countries do invade,
Poor refugees their hate parade,
While from St. Peter's balcony
The Pope spews out his homily
That Islam's sword means Christian peace
However much his flocks they fleece,
But then he only follows right
The leaders of the western night
Presiding our decline and fall,
Deriding those who'd build a wall
To protect the blood we have shed
So the living can trump the dead,
To defend democracy's claims
All without fear can choose their chains -
Thoughts foreign to the Muslim mind,
Which is why they've been left behind.
For centuries Islam waged war
From Spanish lands to India's shore,
Conquered, pillaged and converted
Peoples whom their gods deserted,
Destroyed their towns and scorched their fields,
Then watched the decline in their yields.
But still the caliphs taxed and played
While Europe armed and took their trade
Until one day their gilded fate
Did sink beneath their useless weight
And nothing but the mad Koran
Remained, recited to a man
In shops or mosques or brothel too
Where imams stoked the rage of rue.
New leaders now have fanned the flame
Of Muslim honor, lies and shame,
Invented as the latest chant
‘The Al-Aksa’s in danger’ rant,
Call Arab youths with knives and stones
To run amok on Jewish bones,
Though Israel's tanks restrained refuse
This Muslim bent for child abuse.
But still they come and still they hate,
Still Israel seek to liquidate,
From Ramallah to Jakarta
Raise the cry ‘greater is Allah’,
In which case it is very clear
Why they hold Jerusalem dear:
The Jews had the effrontery
To confront their own enemy,
To reclaim from centuries past
The land to which they e'er held fast,
And though they'll share it with their foes
To spite their face won't cut their nose,
Will not submit to Muslim lord
The right to hang them with a cord
In the center of the city
Young King David once did pity.
And so to those who for peace yearn
I suggest they study and learn
Some history, some Bible too,
What Muslim texts have Muslims do,
Open their eyes and use their brains
Before they flush us down the drains
So they can spout shibboleths fine
Though withered more than Pharaoh's kine.
For if it's peace that people want
In this corner of the Levant
They should back Israel to the hilt
And to the city that David built
Have their country's embassy move,
Thus to the Muslims clearly prove
Their blackmail has run out of steam,
That no one else now shares their dream
Of conquest by both blood and stealth
Of Jewish land and Jewish wealth
And for their double-dealing still
They now will have to pay the bill.
That's how peace in the end will come
As it comes to everyone
Who firmly stands for what is right,
Stands up to evil with God's light.
