A new poem

Writer for the IDF Spokesperson’s Unit at work 

I reread it. And I pondered. And I wrote. And I reread that. And I wrote more. And I erased some lies. And I wrote more. And I erased some truth. And I thought about genocide. And I forgot about that. And I thought about what Palestinians might be like if they were people. And I forgot about that. And I thought about Hamas. And I thought about massacres and terrorists. And I told myself: Remember that Palestinians and Hamas and massacrists and terrorists are all the same thing. And I remembered and I erased and I wrote.    

And the more I wrote and erased the more I felt I could make people disappear as if they’d never been people in the first place.   

Writer for the IDF Spokesperson’s Unit teaches an intern  

Here are the correct phrases: 
Terror group 
terror operatives 
terror targets  
buildings used by terror operatives 
hospital used by terror group 

Now try writing a sentence: 
Israel Defense Force troops fired warning shots at suspected terror operatives who advanced in a crowd toward them.   

Good work! You’re really getting the hang of it. 
Now, use that sentence to inspire yourself to write another sentence: 
Israeli aircraft then fired a missile and eliminated the terror group.  

Excellent! Remember, always include:  
The Israeli Defense Forces continue to operate in the Gaza Strip in order to protect Israeli civilians.  

At the end of the day it is time for the Writer for the IDF Spokesperson’s Unit to go home.  

Tonight, my wife is cooking and we want to watch the Spokesperson read my work on TV.
