Notes | In this poem, the speaker addresses Mohammed Abu Khdeir, a sixteen year- old Palestinian boy who was kidnapped, tortured, and burned alive by Israeli citizens in July 2014.The speaker acknowledges the motivation behind the horrific murder - it was a reprisal for the prior killing of Israeli teenagers. The speaker of the poem aligns himself with the cause of the Palestinian people. |
