[Intro]
What pleasure do you gain
By the deliberate infliction of pain
[Verse 1]
Withholding medication
(Is one sick infliction)
As is starvation
(What in all God’s creation?)
[Chorus]
What pleasure do you gain
(By the deliberate infliction of pain)
The bombing of babies
(Are you stricken with rabies)
[Bridge]
Cherish watching
Humanitarian aid (Fade)
Loving the scorching
(Of Earth’s births)
[Verse 2]
Amputation
(Once again withholding medication)
You must concede
(You love watching them bleed)
[Chorus]
What pleasure do you gain
(By the deliberate infliction of pain)
The bombing of babies
(Are you stricken with rabies)
[Bridge]
[Instrumental, Guitar Solo]
Cherish watching
Humanitarian aid (Fade)
Loving the scorching
(Of Earth’s births)
[Chorus]
What pleasure do you gain
(By the deliberate infliction of pain)
The bombing of babies
(Are you stricken with rabies)
[Instrumental, Guitar Solo]
[Outro]
What pleasure do you gain
(Inflicting pain)
ABOUT THE SONG
The parallels between far-right movements in the United States and Israel often revolve around shared ideologies regarding nationalism, militarism, and resistance to pluralism or inclusive political solutions, such as a two-state resolution in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Here are the connections:
4. Deliberate Infliction of Pain
- Far-right movements in both countries have been criticized for policies that appear to prolong suffering, such as withholding critical resources. For example:
- Bombing Civilian Areas: Disregard for civilian casualties, including children, during military operations, has been a hallmark of critiques against Israeli far-right policies. Similar rhetoric in the U.S. far-right justifies collateral damage in conflicts by portraying it as necessary for national security.
- Withholding Pain Medication and Food Supplies: Policies restricting medical and humanitarian aid to Gaza, for instance, have drawn international condemnation, with critics likening them to collective punishment.
