My Apology to Hamas

I asked you to love
I assumed you wanted only war
I told you to use goodwill
use sweets and desserts and festivities
shower them with kindness
they will share what they stole

I was naive
I beg of you
forgive me
please forgive me
I have been a fool
love does not kill all enemies
those where my childish thoughts

They burn your villages
rape your woman
torture your brothers
arrest aid workers
snipers shooting for fun
kill your children
sexually abuse
tell lies on top of lies
play the victim
while committing genocide

Who knew
Jimmy Carters wisdom ahead of his time
three hundred and ten billion dollars
can purchase many many  lies
