Students at the University of Cape Town, the one with the most connections to Israel and our liberal party, and with shitload funding from the usual Western suspects, have been bravely protesting.
Thank you for sharing this. Who is this fantastic singer/songwriter?
I was thinking of another song the other day: "Genocide is painless...It brings on many changes. And war hawks can take the oil and land if they please..."
I have never heard of him, though I must admit I am so withdrawn from pop culture I know nothing about the music or Hollywood scene. There is little in our culture that appeals to me now.
I checked his Youtube page. His name is Jesse Welles. I've never heard of him, either, but I'm with you on pop culture and names. I can tell you all about 70s singers and rock groups, but after that... My memory gets a bit spotty.
War isn't murder
Good men don't die
Children don't starve and all the women survive
War isn't murder
That's what they say
When you're fighting the Devil
Murder's okay
War isn't murder
They're called casualties
There ain't a veteran
With a good night's sleep
Let's talk about dead people
I mean a dead people
The dead don't feel honor
They don't feel that brave
They don't feel avenged
They're lucky if they got gravеs
Call your dead mother
Ask her whеn she died
It's a deathly silence on the other line
The dead don't talk
But their children don't forget
So in 20 short years
You can live to regret that

War isn't murder
There's money at stake
Hell, even Kushner agrees
It's good real estate
War isn't murder
Ask Netanyahu
He's got a psalm for that
He's got a bomb for you
War isn't murder
It's an old desert faith
It's a nation state sanctioned righteous hate
Let's talk about dead people
I mean a dead people
War isn't murder
It's the vengeance of God
If you can't see the bodies
They don't bloat when they rot
And the flies don't swarm
And the children don't cry
If war isn't murder
Good men don't die
So in a short 20 years
Where you vacation the Strip
Try not and think about the dead
And have a nice trip
War isn't murder
Let's all give thanks
I saw it all in a movie
Give it up for Tom Hanks
War isn't murder
They don't ship out the poor
And the bullets they fire
Ain't part of the cure
War isn't murder
Land is a right
But the banks called dibs
It's something you can't fight
Let's talk about dead people
I mean a dead people
The dead don't feel honor
They don't feel that brave
They don't feel avenged
They're lucky if they got graves
Call your dead mother
Ask her when she died
It's a deathly silence on the other line
The dead don't talk
But their children don't forget
So in 20 short years
You can live to regret
That
Thanks for posting the lyrics. I went looking for them but didn't find them. Hope the brave students at the college protest encampments hear it.

Haven't heard the lyric.

Me too and now I'm forgetting the 70s!
