The Nakba Marching Song!

The Knesset passed the "Nakba Law" in its initial first round of votes
yesterday. The law would make it a crime to commemorate Israel's
existence as a catastrophe or "Nakba", an event that Nakba Nitwits think
should be reversed. The Israeli Left is hysterical. If people cannot
call Israel's existence a catastrophe in the middle of a war, then how can
they be expected to be good leftists and how will the country ever be
annihilated?

Haaretz is leading the hysteria. It denounces the law all this week as
"racist." What is not racist? When Haaretz' Gideon Levy and Amira Hass
celebrate terrorist attacks and call for Israel to be exterminated.

Even worse, some Knesset members now are proposing that anyone taking
up Israeli citizenship would be expected to declare his or her loyalty to
the state of Israel. The Left is of course opposed to that as well, and
Haaretz today decrees that such an idea is also "racist." (Take a look at
this: http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/1088804.html - they cleaned up
their English version and took out the word "racism" ) It is one thing
for people in every other country in the world to be asked to pledge their
allegiance to the country whose citizenship they are applying to receive,
but Israel is crawling with Palestinians who try to get Israeli
citizenship by marrying Israeli Arabs and so it would be insensitive to
ask THEM to be loyal to the state whose citizenship they demand!

The Israeli Left has a long history of demanding selective free speech
absolutism. They want complete freedom of speech for treason and
anti-Semitism, so people can openly advocate mass murders of Jews,
terrorist atrocities, and of course Israel's annihilation. But
criticizing a leftist's public political writings should be prosecuted as
"libel" in SLAPP suits in courts. Universities should be required to
penalize professors who criticize the anti-Israel political activities of
leftist extremists. Newspapers should remain the occupied territories of
the Far Left. Non-leftists should be barred from getting university jobs.
And so on.


So what is the answer to the new Israeli leftist Nakba Lobby? I say it
is to sing to them! I have composed the very thing needed!

It is to the tune of Who's Sorry Now, made famous by Connie Francis
(also Dean Martin and others). If you are not familiar with that, take a
look at Connie herself singing it here:

singing it to appreciate what is coming!)

You can see the original lyrics to "Who's Sorry Now" here:

Anyway, my poetic juices got going this morning, what with the counting of
the Omer having just been completed and all, and I have composed the
"Zionist Theme Song that Answers the Treasonous Nakba Left" marching song.
It is to the tune of Who's Sorry Now, with some minor adjustments in the
lyrics. Her 'tis:

New Nakba Now?
New Nakba Now?
Whose heart is calling for smashing them now?
Who's sad and blue?
Who's crying too?
Kick out the Nakbackers, Jew!?
Right to the end
Just like a friend
I tried to warn you somehow
They mustn't have their way,
And now they must pay
Let's make them really sorry now.
Right to the end
Just like a friend
We tried to warn them somehow:

You had your way,
But now you must pay
I'm glad that you're sorry now
New Nakba Now!
New Nakba Now!


Meanwhile, as a companion song, I have also rewritten the lyrics for
"Did you ever see a Lassie." The original lyrics are here:

The new lyrics go like this, accompanied by choreography notes for those
wishing to dance to it:

Did You Ever See a Settler?

Did you ever see a settler,
A settler, a settler
Did you ever see a settler
Shoot this way and that?
(Girls curtsey)

Shoot this way and that way,
Shoot this way and that way
(Girls continue to curtsey)

Did you ever see a settler
(Girls stand still)

Shoot this way and that?
(Girls curtsey)

Boys Sing to Girls, or Partners:

Did you ever see a settler,
A settler, a settler
Did you ever see a settler
Shoot this way and that?
(Boys salute)

Shoot this way and that way,
Shoot this way and that way
(Boys continue to salute)

Did you ever see a settler
(Boys stand still)

Shoot this way and that?
(Boys salute)
