How I wonder what they are,
Israel and its loyal ally so far
together hand in hand they stand,
united, like a castle on solid land.
with strength and courage they fight,
to kill the innocents and helpless, is it right?
They claim to stand for justice and peace
but their actions speak of deceit
promises made with fervent zeal
only to be broken with a sly appeal
they proclaim to be brave and strong
but their cowardice is what truly belongs
for they hide behind their military might
while innocent lives suffer in their sight
I know/ have heard they have bombed children's hospital. What a COWARDS, right? A hospital, sick people cannot escape, especially kids

Neither do I believe all I see in movies, from Hollywood, Bollywood, or any other country nor do I treat TV sitcoms as NON-fiction reports. Ditto for news programs. I guess we might better ALL kill ourselves. Ok, maybe not. ;)
I surely don't know how many children may have been in a hospital, nor how many 'enemies' and/or their communications and/or their weapons had been moved into the hospital? ? ? ? ? I CAN'T! ! !
Should any of us, here and elsewhere BELIEVE all we hear? Can we KNOW all of the facts and lies and misinterpretations of things which seem believable upon hearing of them? ? NO.
