When you defend the death of a civilian
and say
he should have known better
he should have left his home
and his life
in the land of your enemy
that is hate.

When you say the boy's death was justified,
for daring to be born in that country
with such people
and such policies
it is because you hate.

When the war comes to your town
and you are caught in the cross fire,
I too will say,
you had it coming.
