Palestine Poem by Jan Oskar Hansen

Palestine

Hamas fighters, the brave men and women who
fights for a free Palestine have been killed in the Gaza Strip
together with wives and children.
And once again, Israel sinks in our estimate to a criminal state
this Jewish-occupied land lives on hatred and only exists
for the benefit of their own tribe and has nothing else to offer
in a world where the everlasting guilt of the Holocaust makes
the world is silent to atrocities committed in its hallowed name.
when the American gun culture, the right to wear arms kills
dozens in supermarkets and on the streets dripping blood
we can be sure of big headlights, but this horror turns to ashes
when seeing the steady drip of murdered Palestinians in what
can be called Holocaust with a long view.
