The Squatters' Own Solution
Jamaica welcomes us

"We know we've been the problem,
    like the cause of Mideast wars;
The reason Netanyahu carries
    extra underdrawers.

"He says we'll stop 'expanding',
    but we squatters know we won't.
Like far-right Christians 'love' us,
    but obviously don't.

"Or they'd invite us to their homes
    to share their holidays
Without our swearing on the Bible
    our love for 'brotherly' clichés.

"Nor are we keen on Palestine
    where it's hard to get respect,
Nor on Israel itself,
    where a lot won't genuflect.

"So we're moving to Jamaica,
    that suburb of New York,
Where rumors have it butchers
    may have never heard of pork.

"The headline in the Journal hints
    Jamaica welcomes Jews.
Well, that's the kind of howdy do
    we'd hoped Mahmoud would use.

"But will Jamaicans be OK with
    a constant squatter influx,
And that Netanyahu's game
    to lose his favorite schmucks?"
