RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: ISRAEL AT WAR
Idiot Wind *
We know that Netanyahu
Is a force against democracy
A voice for vengeance
A proponent of endless war
A perpetrator of genocide
But if you believe that Israeli forces
Dug the tunnels, planned and executed
The massacres of October 7th
A brutal execution of their own people
The idiot wind is blowing
Through the vacuum of your mind
There is no end to fantasies
That prejudice can find
We know that Netanyahu failed
Failed to protect his people
He knew what was about to happen and
Failed to respond in time
We know that he is guilty of
Crimes against humanity
Crimes against civilization
Mass destruction and reckless
Disregard for innocent life
But if you believe the Israelis
Have no cause for rage and revenge
A rage founded in antiquity
A rage recorded for all time
The idiot wind is blowing
Through the missives of your kind
Through eyes that have been
Rendered selectively blind
* A song by Bob Dylan
