What Have They Died For

What have they died for your guess good as as mine
The poor innocent civilians of Palestine
More than eight hundred Palestinian dead compared to over forty Israelis quite an unequal amount
Of the war dead of Palestine they are losing count

They are dying for what in twenty years from now due to Climate Change may be unlivable land
Why so many deaths and destruction of property and homes i will never understand
Whoever said that war can lead to peace has surely got it wrong
To an antiquated way of rationalization such thinking belong

That Hamas are far nearer to terrorists than freedom fighters well may be so
But in their President Netanyahu the people of Israel have their own greatest foe
By the destruction of bombings of Palestinian Cities and deaths of civilians he is helping to create
In future millions of enemies for Israel and it's people and State

Netanyahu says that Palestine he wants to demilitarize
But this is an ambition in his lifetime he will never realize
You never demilitarize a people when civilian martyrs to them you do give
Due to his arrogance and lack of wisdom future generations of his people in war zones must live

Due to the stupidity of Netanyahu and Hamas amongst others Israel and Palestine to each other will never be a friend
This is how it is why otherwise pretend
The last hope of peace in the Middle East sadly seems to have gone
For where the seeds of mistrust have been sown only hatred lives on.
