on his land he stands

On his land he stands.

They stand behind him. The occupying power.
Armed and ready. Fingers on the trigger.
His feet planted firmly on "his" land. A country stolen.
She supports him, proud to be his wife.
He has a date with danger. Will he come home?

They speak to their Generals. What orders will they give?
"Stand by" "Tear Gas" "Skunk Gas" "water canon" "Sound blast" that blows up eardrums" or simply

"Shoot to kill" "Shoot to kill?" "Shoot to kill"

Why do you do this? What have they done?
His living here, is "the" crime.
You steal his land, is "your law."
His resistance is your license to kill him.
How dare you shoot him, for asking for what is his.

This was tried in Hitler's Germany.
Were we not appalled?
Were we not disgusted?
Did we do something?
Did it stop?

62 years of silence.
Enough is Enough, is Enough, is Enough

Give him his land back, 1967. let his people return. 1967
There is room enough for you.There is room enough for him.
Stop this, raping, pillaging, torture, humiliation; wanton murder,degradation.
refuse to take those evil orders.
It happened to you then, you do it to him now.
Never again was for no one.

62 years of silence
Enough is Enough, is Enough, is Enough.
