It is said that number 77 signifies spiritual awakening, guidance, transformation and that our guardian angel brings it. But might it not be the angel of healing? We would with open heart hear such a message.
Seventy-seven years ago today, the state of Israel was founded on stolen land. It has grown since then into a fascist state and betrayed the highest values, justice and compassion, of the Jewish faith on which it purports to base its claim. Its hands are bloody with genocide of the Palestinian people. And so are those of the United State complicit in the evil of evils.
All people of good heart and will, of whatever faith, lament this day. We stand with the people Palestine and our hearts are torn with pain and outrage.
Hoy hace setenta y siete años, se fundó el estado de Israel en tierra robada. Desde entonces ha crecido en estado fascista y ha traicionado los más altos valores, la justicia y la compasión, de la fe judía en la que pretende basarse. Sus manos están ensangrentadas del genocidio del pueblo Palestino. E igual las de los Estados unidos cómplice en el mal de males.
Israel, Israel,
struggling with god,
complicit U.S.A.
you will always bear
a festering wound
not even the Angel of Healing
with all the water of Bethesda
can ever clean and cure,
an open mouth
haunting you and the world
till the end of memory, crying
Gaza, Gaza, Gaza.

Israel, Israel,
luchando con dios,
cómplice EE.UU.
siempre llevarán
una llaga supurante
que ni siquiera el ángel del sanar
con toda el agua de Betesda
jamás podrá limpiar y curar,
una boca abierta
atormentándoles y al mundo
hasta el fin de la memoria, gritando
Gaza, Gaza, Gaza.
