Goodbye Arafat, a bitter ending to a bitter man.
They named the twin towers Sodom and Gomorrah,
But yours was named Ramallah.
And now you are buried there.
you were not an honest man.
but your fires are still burning in the land.
Your millions of victims still mourn you,
while their millions rest in your bank.
You killed their dreams before you died,
and substituted dreams of salt and ruin,
"The rocks will betray them" you quoted.
And you spread a message of hate,
even as you played the peacemaker.
Though you had your chances to change things,
had you really tried.
Disciple of the Mufti,
Who went to Berlin to pursue his war,
A man who brought the dreams of Hitler,
home to Egypt, to Syria, to Iraq.
A man who was never interested in peace,
A man who wanted only one thing, extermination.
And yet his people loved him.
Your people loved you like they loved him,
when they should have turned their backs in shame.
Instead of seeing you for who you were,
and maybe making you keep your feet in the fire,
they played your cynical games.
For faith, only unbelievers lie,
And the unbelievers teach in the mosques.
While the believers come carrying bombs.
Their handlers bank part of the costs.
And only God in Heaven, or Allah,
mourns their death on high.
He sees all things, your own sages teach.
Do you think 70 virgins are waiting for you?
Did you really think that killing children,
is the way to make the world peaceful and free?
What happened to your conscience,
if not your respect for humanity?
Goodbye Arafat, when you were paid to do good,
you chose to hire assassins instead.
When you were given money for schools,
you filled those schools with hate.
Goodbye Arafat, though for the past week,
I've only been praying that you would soon be dead.
I had once hoped you'd changed, but you didn't,
and now it's way too late.
Koran:
"They attribute to Allah what they hate (for themselves),
and their tongues assert the falsehood that all good things are for themselves: without doubt for them is the Fire, and they will be the first to be hastened on into it! [16:62]"
Jeremiah:
"The prophets prophesy falsely,
and the priests bear rule by their means;
and my people love to have it so:
and what will ye do in the end thereof?"
lamentations:
"Her gates are sunk into the ground;
he hath destroyed and broken her bars:
her king and her princes are among the Gentiles:
the law is no more;
her prophets also find no vision from the LORD."
For the Arabs of Palestine have done this to themselves. And would do to the world worse.
