Lee Diamond – The Tears of an Israeli Leftist
By some reports 480,000
Syrians have been slaughtered
In the last 5 years
1 million refugees seek asylum
Throughout the world
The Syrian army
together with the Russian army
Continue to bomb and slaughter
And to destroy life limb and and home
Refugees continue to seek refuge
At this very moment
Killing continues
Bombing continues
Destruction continues.
Tragic reports still fill the news
Appeals come forth from every direction and
nation.
The United Nations calls for
The end of violence. They ask for
A cease-fire but nothing happens.
It’s all a farce. Nothing is changing.
The atrocity continues. It’s been called a mini Holocaust.
What’s a mini Holocaust?
A half 1 million? 1 million? 6 million?
No solution is in sight.
Assad remains the president
And is not condemned for war crimes.
The United Nations is impotent
To bring a solution to this war!
Is it possible that
The UN chooses impotency ?????
YET
UNESCO condemns Israel for
Claiming its attachment to Jerusalem
26 abstentions
6 support Israel
2 absent
Sudden potency
Unesco declares :
The Jews have no attachment to Jerusalem
Historical or religious.
Though it’s historical sites, its history
And it’s liturgy prove beyond a doubt
The powerful connection between Jews and Jerusalem
Between Israel and Jerusalem
Forgive me but Isn’t this adding fuel to the
Fire? Or lighting the fire?
Sudden potency!
Do Americans have a connection with Washington?
To the Whitehouse; to the Washington monument; to
The Lincoln Memorial?
Do Italians have a connection with Rome
Is London connected to Great Britain ?
When Hamas bombs Israel
And Israel defends itself It’s called “over reacting”
By that same impotent UN
When Hamas loses a thousand fighters
In a war of their own choosing
It’s called “disproportional.” killing on Israels part.
As Hamas bombs rain on Israel’s cities
And IDF soldiers give their lives
Yet the war rages in Syria
And hundreds of thousands are killed
By the very same nations that condemn Israel
Or who abstain
And who now deny our authenticity
And condemn us of overreaction” as we protect ourselves.
That same UN that claims that the Western Wall of
The Temple is not connected to Jews?
Sudden potency !
Has the world lost its sanity?
Or Is this age old anti-Semitism.?
Or perhaps ״new age״ anti-Semitism ?
Will the Jews ever be accepted
As human
As the rest of the world?
The murder in Syria continues
Refugees still flee
And crowded tent cities flourish
And SILENCE
Or crocodile tears
The UN cries these crocodile tears
And that same UN
Denies israel’s very essence
Am I paranoid?
