CHAMPIONS OF APARTHEID

So many people who in public endlessly lament
a genocide that blighted
the world 80 years ago,
are vocal, proud champions
for Apartheid and
ongoing ethnic cleansing today:

They are laying wreaths to memorials crying "Never again!"
while claiming that the soldiers,
who each day destroy homes,
and the secret police,
who daily torture captuired people,
are 'Just defending themselves!"

They say, these apologists for
killing the occupied
and their dream of freedom both,
the victims are to be blamed
for their own suffering,
and that their voices
must be silenced.

To these heralds of oppression
it all makes a distorted sense,
as past victims are today the oppressors,
and the tormented
lives of today's victims are worthless
- just faceless üntermensch to be
trampled under military boots of
the triumphant übermensch
and their need for lebensraum.
