WE ARE ALL #MUSLIMS

If we are all Charlie Hebdo

Then we are all Muslims too

For Obama to condemn these murders

While his drones blast Afghan shepherds to hell and back

Is hypocrisy rank and dark

For Netanyahu to cast the first stone

While his savage army slaughters pebble-throwing children

And bombs schools with white phosphorus

Is duplicity twisted and black

State terrorism stinks as grossly

As the freelance variety

This despicable butchery

Has nothing to do with Islam

And was designed to spark a backlash against Muslims themselves

The very same day

Three grenades hit a mosque in Le Mans

A Muslim family driving their car were fired on

An explosion blew out the windows of a shop next door to a mosque

The booted thugs of the Front National

Will spread their poison in the wake of these murders

And the forces of the state will clamp down

On the jobless youth of the banlieues

We must not let innocent Muslims

Suffer for the acts of sectarians

Because an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind

We cannot let racists and bigots divide us

For there is no race but the human race

And we need unity now like never before

And if we are all Charlie Hebdo

Then in truth we are all Muslims too
