Haavara, the Transfer Agreement
Contract signed in 1933
Haavara, between two parties
Hitler's Third Reich and Zionist Jews
A pact meant to thwart boycott by
World Jewry of all German goods
Paltreu and Leumi bankers
Took care of all transactions

Haavara, it suited both parties
Homeland for the Jews in Palestine
Haavara, but not all were Chosen
Only Zionists, both wealthy and strong
Selection was not down to chance
Non-Zionist Jews rebels sent to camps
The rest remained in the ghettos
Khazar Jew Europeans

Haavara, the ships sailed to Haifa
Tens of thousands were to make the voyage
Marhaban, how would they be welcomed
Native Arabs soon were overwhelmed
By 1948 we saw
Creation of The Jewish state
For this the shame is on England
The Balfour Declaration

Haavara, the Transfer Agreement
Led to Nabka for Semitic tribes
Haavara, their land was stolen
Outright breach of Article 49
The olive groves burned and destroyed
Whole villages were massacred
Through endless bloodshed and violence
Deir Yassin we remember

Haavara, an unknown chapter
Public knowledge is as rare as gold
Haavara, brushed under the carpet
Awkward facts remained in silence, untold
Then one day not so long ago
Truth spoken by Ken Livingstone
The media is denying
Edwin Black is now lying

Hashoah, eight decades later
Ethnic cleansing, occupation and war
Hasbara, the West Bank and Gaza
Concentration camps and refugees
The intifada must go on
As freedom fighters take up arms
And bring back their belonging
The key to freedom is dawning
