Aleppo was so beautiful

Aid and sustenance denied

To feed medieval siege

Like Zealots of the Templar Knights

Against a Saladin

 True  Liege?

Was Syria’s people so oppressed

To replace them with the ‘One’

Of CIA and Obama’

Who made Cameron his Don,

The French now in the their Arms race

And May now sells the bomb

And while we watch the Front door

In The back door comes the Con.

Air cover by Nato,

For Isis in the tank,

Forces now afforded impunity

By the Yanks

Just like in the last world war,

For sale in Sherman’s best

Like Tommy in the last world,

Do better fighting in his vest

Tommy cookers For the British,

Henry Ford had Britain’s back

 But he also had the Germans flank

With Hitler in the sack.

Aleppo was so beautiful,

And no doubt was this child,

Is seventy years so long ago

That death be reconciled
