A 17-year old girl was shot and killed by Zionist fire during yet another invasion into Jenin refugee camp on Saturday, the third in less than 24 hours in a futher act that bleeds the Ummah's heart as this poem by Showkat Ali describes. Boshra Naji al Wash was hit in the head by a round of live ammunition that instantly killed her. She was at home in the Jenin refugee camp when the army randomly fired at dozens of houses. The invasion was carried out by thirty armored vehicles and jeeps, and was concentrated in Jenin refugee camp, and the western section of Jenin city close to the camp. Several residents suffocated after inhaling gas fired by the army, and several houses were hit by live rounds; damage was reported. While this poem does little to ease the continuing suffering of the Palestinians, it does bring to our attention the fact that not one of us will be spared from accounting for the crimes we have allowed to take place against our brother and sisters who cry out for our help. Please circulate it as wide as possible. Oh! Jenin My Heart Cries For You The years have passed Memories have faded And the rain has washed Away The evidence of those slain Men women and children Buried under the rubble Who Israel accused them of causing trouble Their lies believed by the gullible International agencies and media Carried the story Of the brave Israelis Our story ignored Because it's gory The brave mujahideen fought But they knew it was to no avail The Muslim leaders would not come to their aid So they fought valiantly Like we pray our last salah They took inspiration From Dawud AS And fought the Goliath Alone Trusting in their lord Better to die with dignity Then live in humiliation The Ummah praised them The rulers were shamed Questions were asked What's the point of huge armies and Nuclear weapons if your Ummah is humiliated? Israel was scared Memories of khaybar Came flooding back 23 Israeli dead 13 in one day 100s wounded And millions of Zionists psychologically scarred Bulldozers used And bombs dropped from planes Upon houses Muslims treated like louses The victims of the holocaust Practiced their own genocide But who's going to put them on trial? Five years have passed No one remembers Jenin But the world remembers and commemorates The Jews who were gassed Over 50 years ago Remember April 2002 What did we do for our brothers and sisters? What are we doing now for our Ummah? Prepare your answers Oh! Muslimeen Allah will ask you On the day when wealth, qualifications and status Will mean absolutely nothing.
