Free The Land
Where's the land that my forefathers worked hard for? I suppose I should be saying worked hard on. They were shipped from plantation to plantation like a mule, but never recieved one. As a matter of fact, I hardly think they ever even got a thank you out of the deal. All that was awaiting them after "the war" was a life that they were supposed to lead even though they were ignorant to how they were to obtain such a good life. Where's the land? After all this time, still no compensation? I find that totally disheartening on one hand and absurd on the other. How can the United States allow it to be said that this country was all for creating a state for Israel when its own people, who worked and slaved in this country, have no land? How dare we give all of this military and financial aid to a "country" thousands of miles away and the holocaust victims of this country have yet to recieve a thank you for not for rising up to take a land that should partially, if not completely be their own. After the devastation of Hurricane Katrina, it became apparent to all within reach of a newspaper or a television set that we have no land to call our own. Without rebuilding the lost towns, where will those displace persons live? Land is taken from third world nations overseas and they are forced to work THIER land for those who have taken it? Something is terribly wrong with that picture. This land belongs to the Earth and those who work it, not the slavemasters who do nothing but snap whips and yell "work harder." Free the land!!!
