Wrote this after a Palestinian man was brutally assassinated by the opressive Israeli military.

"Terrorist Mastermind!"

"Terrorist mastermind!" they screamed
As they pushed the button to kill.
"Terrorist mastermind!" they screamed
As his beating heart rested still.

But why should a man of honor die?
Because Sharon saw him a threat?
He was just one man, loved, bled, cried.
But four rockets and his fate was set.

He lived next to the Hebrew homeland,
But Israel cared not for Massoud.
For he was of Palestinian land,
And had no freedom where he stood.

I cry as I read about his death,
This most heinous assassination.
Would they continue this hapless wrath,
Their world: eternal damnation

Your words are full of truth, and I wish it wasn't so. Why does it have to come down to death to just to prove a point.
