What deadly ruse~! - can the brave fighter trust
The treacherous and cunning detainee
That waving the white flag, seems to adjust
So peacefully to his captivity?
But then he turns, the villain Fedayeen,
A Saddam loyalist, trained to deceive,
Watch out brave fighters keep alert and keen
Don’t drop your guard, or else you come to grief!
Long-suffering Kurds and Shiites - so let down
Twelve years ago, when we so fast withdrew
Then you were brutally all overthrown
And the result,- more suffering came to you.
Saddam took vengeance for your rising up
And all the world saw how he gassed and smote,
But now we stay and steel your beaten back
This time we stand with you - so help us God.!
Your great oppressors, Saddam’s Fedayeen,
Trained well for murderous brutality,
Commits the shameless acts that contravene
The rules of war and of humanity
Ghouls keep their own from water and from food,
And as civilians dressed sue for sweet peace,
Then the fake soldiers turn around and shoot
Or ambush and commit atrocities
Regard for human life is weakness,-thus
Take off we plead, brave warriors take off-
You were forbearing caring long enough
Take finally off the all too velvety gloves.
Some writers take the pen to emphasize,
And love to dwell on aspects negative,
Exceedingly well pleased to minimize
Superb attainments that the brave achieve!.
Press coverage is slanted - some hearts bleed-
Although there is for it no need at all,
For bleeding‘s sake alone the midgets bleed,
And keep on warning of what may befall.
Iraq‘s civilian folk is beat and killed
By thugs “Irregular” craven, foul and grim,
Children and woman serve as human shield
As is the custom in Saddam’s regime.
Support our valiant heroes, - praise! give praise!
They put for us their young life on the line,
The bring deliverance and in the maze
Of war’s turmoil their glory halos shine.
