| They tell us |
| We are traitors. |
| They tell us |
| We are destroyers of Israel. |
| They tell us |
| We are criminals. |
| But we tell them: |
| The criminals are those |
| Who started this |
| Criminal and unnecessary war! |
| An unnecessary war |
| Because it was possible |
| To stop the Qassams |
| By the government |
| stopping the blockade |
| On the million and a half |
| Inhabitants of Gaza. |
| A criminal war |
| Because, on top of everything else |
| It is openly and shamelessly |
| Part of Ehud Barak’s and Tzipi Livni’s |
| Election campaign |
| I accuse Ehud Barak |
| Of exploiting the IDF soldiers |
| In order to get more Knesset seats. |
| I accuse Tzipi Livni |
| Of advocating mutual slaughter |
| In order to become |
| Prime Minister. |
| I accuse Ehud Olmert |
| Of trying to cover up |
| Rot and corruption |
| With a disastrous war. |
| I call upon them |
| From this tribune, |
| On behalf of this |
| Courageous and decent audience: |
| Stop the war at once! |
| Stop shedding the blood of |
| Our soldiers and civilians for nothing! |
| Stop shedding the blood |
| Of the inhabitants of Gaza! |
| The ground invasion |
| Will cause |
| An additional disaster, |
| A mutual massacre |
| And even more |
| Terrible war crimes! |
| At the end of this war |
| No general |
| Will be able to set foot |
| On European soil |
| Without fear of being arrested |
| For war crimes. |
| We are told |
| That there is no alternative. |
| Not true!!! |
| A cease-fire is possible even now, |
| Yes, this very minute, |
| If we agree to lift |
| The murderous siege, |
| If we allow the Gaza people |
| To live in dignity, |
| If we talk with Hamas. |
| I wish to address |
| The people of the South, |
| The people of Sderot, |
| Ashdod and Beersheba: |
| We know your anguish – |
| Even though we don’t live with you, |
| We know well. |
| But we also know |
| That this war |
| Will not change your situation. |
| The politicians exploit you, |
| The politicians conduct a war |
| On your back. |
| You too know that! |
| I call upon |
| Olmert, Barak and Livni: |
| Do not send the soldiers into the Strip! |
| All three of you will be accused of war crimes! |
| All three of you will pay the price! |
| The masses in Israel |
| Saluting you now |
| Will punish you tomorrow. |
| That happened in the |
| Second Lebanon War |
| That will happen |
| Again this time! |
| And YOU who are standing here, |
| Women and men, |
| Young and old, |
| Jews and Arabs, |
| YOU who have protested |
| Against this horrible war |
| From the first day, |
| From the first minute, |
| Isolated and cursed – |
| YOU are the real heroes! |
| You can be proud, |
| Very proud, |
| Because you stand in the middle |
| Of a hurricane of hysteria and ignorance, |
| And are not swept away by it! |
| You are retaining your sanity, |
| Not only at home |
| But here, in the street! |
| Millions around the world see you, |
| Salute you, |
| Salute each one of you. |
| As a human being, |
| As an Israeli, |
| As a seeker of peace, |
| I am proud |
| To be here today. |
