Holy Land's Cherokee
In the images of falling statues, witness the arrival of a new era.
In history books we learn, unlike other tribes resisting their removal,
the Cherokee waged a nonviolent struggle.
Natives were ill-prepared to deal with the colonial settlers,
and there was no League of Nations!
A then a radical solution for the contagious crisis:
No-fly zone over the holy land, call it Operation Rescue Humanity's Conscience.
That ought to block the delivery of their evisceration narratives to the wrong minds, like bombs missing their targets and dropped in ocean.
