An information glut breeds infinite terrors Upstart self-assassins aroused by searing hate Intelligence amok in a muck of human errors Every true believer professes his faith Sacrificial suffering, the mindful martyr's fate The infidel's impiety, a sin against his race
Midway between yellow and revolutionary red A Muslim shares communion with the Christian dead While American crusaders shielded by tankers Expropriate Iraq for the corporate bankers
For chronic attacks iconoclasts hanker Their jihad tirades provoking ancient rancor Mecca bound pilgrims beg Allah for a cure But prayers for peace won't end the greed of oil connoisseurs Nor will they quell the wrath of prophet saboteurs
