Terrorism

Terrorism
isn't that a scary word?

Blowing up buildings
fire spewing persistant organic pollutants
and a President saying they hate
our freedom.

They say I am a terrorist
because I smoke grass
belong to the left
and try to be fair.

Who are the terrorists?
Besides the axis of evil.
Anybody who uses terror
to get their way.

That includes all leadership
the rulers who make the rules
in something they pretend to be democracy.

Is freedom the same as terror?
The Bush doctrine doesn't explain.
But if freedom is different from terror
why is it so much alike?

Using terrorism to defend freedom
so says the freedom fighters
AKA the largest terrorist supporters.

They say we are the good guys
They say we are the bad guys
As America bleeds.

40 million Americans can't afford
to see a doctor.
Billions starve.
Yet they say the biggest problem
is an axis of evil.

Cancer isn't the axis of evil
it's okay for big business to
put dioxin in our air
after all it's not an act of terror.

They say they hate our freedom
I ask what freedom
Nobody answers.

Is it sucide?
Will our foriegn policy murder us all.

Cesium-139, Stromium Nidate and Dioxin
in our milk and bodies.
Nobody cares.

Education would make us stronger
in the fight against terror.
It makes more sense to defund
and spend it on gizmo 2000.

So they win.
Bleed and die of cancer.
That's our plan.
