A Moderate View from the Middle East
"What is wanted is not the will to believe, but the will to find out, which is the exact opposite". ~ Bertrand Russell (1872 - 1970)

Yet another day without Hope
Who can believe
There’s still no reprieve
Lives on hold
Stories untold
Of futures erased
And dignity debased
No glimmer of hope
No ways left to cope
The bombings continue
All at the same venue
For Gazans young and old
There is no pot of gold
Yet another day without
A seemingly endless drought
Things we take for granted
Are so dearly precious and wanted
Water, electricity and gas
A basic need for all enmasse
Liberty, dignity and freedom
Lost to this forsaken Kingdom
A child’s right to dream
Crushed in a violent stream
Shattered illusions everywhere
When will the world wake up and care?

Enough is enough
There is no place like home & for those who have never known a home or felt they belonged anywhere then yes, this is our hour and we have paid dearly for it. Enough already. We have *all* had enough.
