Dear ISIS... Karma Is A Bitch

The Iraq campus had an accident.

In a case of karmic justice, 23 are dead.
Seems a group of terrorists have killed themselves instead.
Sitting in a classroom, learning how to wear a vest,
Students and instructor really blew the final test.

Ask not whom the bell tolls for because it tolls for them
And, although it's callous, I don't plan on missing REM.
I hope that recruiters find it harder now to pitch
Suicide to those who've learned that karma is a bitch.

Middle East Update - Making Friends Wherever We Go.




Iraq isn't better with us gone; in fact, it's worse.
Sunnis and the Shia are both fighting to reverse
Any signs of progress that their country may have made.
Now, it seems, they're wishing that our weapons systems stayed.

Sharing common borders with the Syrians, Iraq
Is a frequent target of a suicide attack.
Someone blows themselves - and others - into bloody bits;
Almost every single day some random violence hits.

Saudis are unhappy we've not played a larger role;
Don't believe it's possible that we'll achieve our goal
Of a peaceful Middle East until Assad is stopped.
Israel's not thrilled Iran might get its sanctions dropped.

Egypt's mad at funding cuts (because they had a coup.)
Pakistan and Libya are angry with us, too.
Nation building's not our strength so, once a war gets won,
We should not just walk away from countries...  We should run.
