Kolkata Against Zionism

What was Tagore’s Palestine Dream? Albert Einstein and Rabindranath Tagore in Berlin on 1926 | Courtesy: lbi.org T he ongoing genocide in Gaza– aerial bombardment and ground invasion in the 17 sq. miles small strip of besieged land at the coast of the Mediterranean Sea and a smaller part of residual Palestine, long occupied by the Zionist Israeli State led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu– has already surpassed the horrors of Guernica, epitomized by Pablo Pissco in his 1937 oil painting. The pulverizing of the small Basque town by Fascist bombers in Republican Spain and the carpet bombing in the German city of Dresden by the Allied forces during the prelude and crescendo of the Second World War, respectively, have long been considered the ultimate symbols of the aerial pounding of urban civilian populations and destructions of their life-supporting infrastructure. In contrast, hourly rising tolls in Gaza today, both in terms of human lives including that of children and women as we...

Death of Humanity Last year humanity died, Many rejoiced, and very few cried. Blood-stained bodies all around, No safe haven on the ground. Love, joy, and peace snatched away, A deadly silence is left to stay. No water to drink, No food to eat. No children to hug, No families to greet. No mothers to dry the painful tears, No fathers to chase away the fears. No homes left to keep warm, No shelter to brace against the storm. No mourns are heard, No tears were shed. It clearly shows  Humanity is dead. Come forward, children of the world, You have to realise the reality. Lend your voice, show your strength, Together, resurrect the dead HUMANITY.

  It was dark and bleak, You knocked. We opened our doors wide. There you stood trembling, From hunger and fear shivering.  Having lost your land and love,  From having no roof above.  Terror writ large on your faces, In pain, left only with traces.  Vacant eyes with no dreams, You had no smiles, only screams! We hugged and welcomed you, You got a foothold and grew.  You were happy and warm  again, Your forgot your persecution and pain. You flourished, but your branches became tentacles, They suffocated, smothered and hurt like hell! Here we stand trembling, From hunger and fear, shivering.  Having lost most of our land and love,  From Having no roof above.  Terror writ large on our faces, In pain, Left only with traces.  Not a crumb to eat, not a drop to drink, We know not how many are left from our kith and kin.  What flows here are rivers of blood, What blows here are clouds of dust.  Not buildings but homes you have de...
