Bloody Truth by Yedida Freilich

Arab invasions terror and boycott
No UN vote will satisfy this lot.
Palestine has proudly declared
No Jews are allowed and nobody cared
The Arab Spring. Civil war rages
Liberty trampled freedom in cages
21 Arab nations and no human rights
Why vote for more Arabian Nights
Don’t let the UN obscure the truth
Don’t let false history corrupt our youth
This virtual state has no peaceful perception
It’s just a base for bloody contention
Treaties come, agreements go
Balfour’s dictate Sykes-Picot
Arafat’s Oslo blew up in our face
Camp David Accord, alas now a trace
48, 67 Jordan was king
No talk of Palestine, no one mentioned the thing
Where are Palestine’s borders to be
They ought to be in Jordan by history’s decree
So don’t let the UN obscure the truth
Don’t let false history corrupt our youth
This virtual state has no peaceful perception
It’s just a base for bloody contention
If this virtual Palestine must be
What risk to Israel’s security
8 miles wide Israel backs to the sea
Can Jews survive a UN guarantee
World dictators raise your hands up to vote
Your women are shrouded, misogynists gloat.
Bury the truth with your oil soaked sands
Free to vote in New York, but not in your own lands
Don’t let the UN obscure the truth
Don’t let false history corrupt our youth
This virtual state has no peaceful perception
It’s just a base for bloody contention
So don’t let the UN obscure the truth
Don’t let false history corrupt our youth
This virtual state has no peaceful perception
It’s just a base for bloody contention
It’s just a base for bloody contention
