THE "GHOSTS" OF BAGHDAD
Screaming children and their mothers lament in tears
The foreign ghosts of Baghdad have suddenly appeared,
Decades of oppression and suffering our hearts are always rent
Our own despot ghost, we know not where he went

The invaders have now occupied and taken our land
Our chagrined plight is worse, than with that deranged man,
112-billion barrels of oil reserves, we need no hand-out
From these embezzlers of oil, with duplicity in their mouth

We have suffered and will suffer and eventually die
But our children's torment, we can't help, but wonder why?
In God's daylight hours the invading ghosts wave and smile
And in the still of darkness, the myrmidons are violently vile

The screams of the children and their torment in the night
We must keep faith in God to deliver us from this plight,
The ochlocracy has food in abundance and sleep in their beds
Whilst our suffering continues from the starving and the dead

No dolorousness from the nation that believes in God and prayer
Despite our pestilence of death, destruction and despair,
When it comes, the crusaders' pangs will not be allayed by mammon
For the One whom we cannot see, is greater than any man!

"[LET US NOT FORGET HISTORY] 'Another mad-man persuaded the 'Reichstag' to invest him with emergency powers, suspending the constitution in the so-called enabling act of February 28th, 1933.: Officially, this madman in 1933 became FUHRER. With the aid of his colleagues, they perfected totalitarian control. Once internal control was assumed, the madman began mobilizing his country's resources for military conquest and domination with vast re-armament coupled with a propaganda campaign to prepare his nation for war with its mythical enemy. With internal and external obstacles removed, allowing total power, the 'Mythical Enemy' was ruthlessly attacked in mass propaganda, economic sanctions and, the final blow, physical destruction. Absolute and unchecked powers throughout history have led nations, big and small, to commit the most egregious acts upon societies, in the name of 'justice', when in truth and in fact, it is to promote their own ideology."
