Saudi Brutality And World Powers Hypocrisy Poem by Saqib Hussain, author of Contemplate and Sweet Bird

In honour of Sheikh Nimr and all innocent people killed

Another innocent person killed
And yet more blood is on the hands
Of this brutal, bloodthirsty Saudi regime
Yet it's difficult to understand

While so many world powers stay silent
When human rights are ignored
Any foreign policy that allows this
Is more than just deeply flawed

It is so dangerous to world security
No amount of money or oil is worth
The lives and security of innocent people
This Saudi regime has given birth

To al-Qaeda, Taliban, Daesh
And other horrific groups
Their twisted Wahabbi ideology
Brainwashing so many youths

Don't let the desire for barrels of oil
Make you ignore rivers of blood
In the Middle East, Asia, Africa, Europe
Everywhere, remove the executioners hood

See the ugliness of the Saudi regime
And the ugly hypocrisy of governments that support it
Horrific hypocrisy, endangering their own citizens
So dangerous, irresponsible, cold and sick

Choose peace over war
Support and speak up for the oppressed
May God bless you Sheikh Nimr
Till we have a better future we won't rest

Saqib Hussain
