The Case for the Kurds

 RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: GLOBAL POLITICS


The Case for the Kurds

 

Erdogan is arresting rival leaders

For their connections to the Kurds

Disregard the lies you’re told

Put aside what you have heard

The Kurds are freedom fighters

You can take them at their word

 

They fight for their own homeland

For an independent nation state

They have earned their right to freedom

And no longer will they wait

They want back what they have lost

They believe it is their fate

 

They fought like lions against ISIS

They were our allies and our friends

This should never be denied

Their cause will never bend

Despite the avalanche of lies

There is a message we must send:

 

Give them what they deserve

Admit their cause is right

Take them at their solemn word

Stand behind them in their fight
