Palestine (The Prophecy) Revised
Raheem Muhammad 1964 (Alabama)
Empathy or sympathy, the choice is yours to make,
In the end, Palestine's fate no one can shake.
The pen now lifted, the ink long dried,
Your allegiance clear, even if truths are denied.
Unfamiliar with Mystery Babylon's dark tale,
Amidst many waters, guilt we cannot veil.
Three flags unfurled, painted red, white, and blue,
Colonial strife, a United Snakes debut.
Funds and arms to non-Jews they send,
Cloaked in neutrality, aid they pretend.
Deception's grasp seeks to defy the divine,
Christmas, Easter, tools of a grand design.
Santa and Easter bunny, traditions unclear,
Veiling ancient truths, nurturing fear.
Who dared to fashion a God with a son?
Denying unity, claiming three in one.
The First Commandment, worship one alone,
Prophets including Jesus, on this they've shone.
Conspiracies tethered to Israel's name,
Unknowing support, leading to blame.
David stands pure against Goliath's might,
Palestine, the Lamb, in truth's pure light.
