Out Damned Squatters
A follow-up to Lady MacBeth
"Out," damn'd squatters, "Out," we say.
"Go back where you belong."
The world and Netanyahu know
that what you're doing's wrong.
Expand for now, but recognize
who you're expanding for:
The people you've tried to displace
for forty years or more.
It's "Occupation" pure and simple.
You can't stay forever
No matter how convinced you are
that God backs your endeavor.
Theology, security,
and history be damned.
The spot you're in's untenable.
It's time you squatters scrammed.
Forget our automatic veto on
those U.N. resolutions.
Your removal is the key
to mid-East peace solutions.
Did Bibi tempt Obama asking,
"Where'll they relocate?
How many can a place like
Buchenwald accommodate?"
But if you stay, you'll be outvoted.
You'll have little say
When Palestinians get their State
and find you're in their way.
Why wasn't MacBeth's lady
just a trifle more specific?
It isn't spots but squatters
who have tried to be prolific,
But mass producing babies
with each girl an octomom
Does necessitate an
unconventional "Shalom".
