Bashir ordered the Janjaweed, Arab herdsmen
to run down Sudan's black Darfurian farmers
as entire families desperate to escape were
shot down by helicopter gunships
in mass killing before the cover of
forest gave them haven. And the world
looked on. The International Criminal
Court sat in judgement but their verdict
meant nothing to the Arab nations that
welcomed his presence as one of their own.
Bashar would accept no pleas for equality
meting out punishment for complaints
in a sectarian-driven mass massacre
delivered via chemical weapons, aerial
artillery and barrel bombs stifling dissent
as Syrian Sunnis fled in their millions to
populate Europe as refugees. Bashir and
Assad together annihilated a million lives.
Now the Arab League prepares to invite him
back to the fold. The savagely barbaric
tactics Putin's planes exacted in Syrian lives
replayed now in Ukraine where once and again
hospitals and schools are bombed and civil
life destroyed, where mass graves receive the
dead, instructing psychopaths taking note that
the assaults against humanity come with no
costs. The "Never Again!" phrase as devoid of
meaning as the intentions of base humanity.
