Lasting Peace In Gaza Will Only Come When Gazans Are Freed From Hamas Tyranny

 

The negotiations for a ceasefire in the Hamas Israeli War are proceeding at a snail’s pace
The leader of Hamas Yahya Sinwar after seeing his predecessor Ismail Haniyeh killed by Israelis in Tehran wants guarantees of his personal safety in place
The hostages are Hamas’ only bargaining chips
If released for a 6 week ceasefire Sinwar fears that at its end he’ll be on a one Paradise trip
This leader feels it’s okay for thousands of Palestinians to be sacrificed with their lives
But he is so critical to standing up to Israel that he must survive
While the Palestinians in Gaza live in abject squalor and poverty
Hamas leaders live in Qatar in a life style like pampered royalty
If peace is ever to be found the lyrics by the Palestinians need to be altered
Or their quest for peace and prosperity will sadly forever falter
“Palestinians from the river to the sea
If freed from the tyranny of Hamas will be free
