Trump's Last Resort
Gaza Riviera
That's Donald's latest scheme
Move the Palestinians
It is the settlers' dream
Their troops have done the groundwork
And cleared off all the land
The families of those many killed
Will surely understand
No mind about the thousands dead
Entombed beneath the rubble
Digging new foundations
It won't be too much trouble
Skyscrapers where the tented camps
Housed frightened and displaced
Queues for cocktails not food aid
Beach towels for shrouds replaced
Those who made this strip their home
Are marked down now for exile
Punished for a terror raid
To live beyond the Nile
And Trump is just ignoring
What blood and tears have bought
A blot on Netanyahu -
It is the last resort.
