Raid On Entebbe

Blogger Black Buzz’s below poem is about the brilliant miraculous rescue by Israeli commandos of Israeli citizens who had been hijacked on an Air France jetliner, flight 139, which had originated from Tel Aviv, Israel on June 27, 1976 and was headed towards Paris, France when the plane was intercepted by the PLO and by two Germans from the “German Revolutionary Cells” who directed the plane to Benghazi, Libya.




Raid On Entebbe


Uganda is a land with beautiful people and rolling hills.
 And it has a dictator named Idi Amin who
 Who harbors terrorists who kill people just for thrills.

The Israelis came to Uganda by planes
Some 2500 air miles away
And the Israeli Air Force penetrated the Uganda Air Defense system
Which limited their stay.

The Ugandan Security Forces tried to drive the Israelis back
But the well-trained Israeli Commandos administered a heavy fatal
devastating counterattack.


As the Israeli planes flew out of sight
WE all will remember that victorious night
 Terrorism against Israeli citizens doesn't pay
A lesson that Idia Amin learned with much dismay
