Untrue dictators are an unlawful lot
They are a necessary evil at times
Hitler and Stalin they the two
we remember not forgot
Tito and Saddam, whose iron fist
Suppressed ire and bigotry that festered
throughout the centuries
Saddam reigned in the Sunnis and Shi'ites
but gassed the Kurds amid the fire
The USA was complicit with Saddam's war with Iran
Tito 's Yugoslavia became fractionated
Into many different countries and sects through out the land
Mostly the Orthodox Christians versus
the Muslims who remnants of the Ottoman Empire
Now we have a different problem,
Iraq is fracturing, after a trillion dollars spent
After 4,000 plus lost lives, and ten times more left maimed
10 years at war and multiple deployments
We now have ISIS, ISLAMIC STATES of IRAQ and SYRIA
ISIS isn't Islamic, Koran does promote the killing of innocence
The selling of women as in spoils of war
At times the world isn't ready for America's most highly prized asset
FREEDOM
Jeffersonian style.
