Isn't That A Laugh? Israeli team players Their settlement expansion plan timing was exquisite, Coinciding, as it did, with Mr. Biden's visit. With friends like the Israelis, who needs enemies? To get them off the West Bank? Perhaps some dread disease To take their egos down a peg so they won't thumb their noses At Biden's overtures and think they'll always come up roses. It's not our guarantees they want. As usual it's our money. So what if it's foreclosures here if over there it's milk and honey? They'll find their anti-Semitism cries won't fetch the dog a bone. The cupboard's bare enough to let the pit bulls forage on their own. What are they contributing? As allies, not a thing. They can't even come to bat, much less take a swing. Team players? Isn't that a laugh? Why keep them on our side? What's their reaction to our help? What's the Yiddish word for snide? How worried are the squatters? How much do they want peace? Rent controlled? No vacancies? Who'll start the bidding on the lease?
