Exclusive! Penitent song-spoof draft

As you may have heard, and as a Guardian headline puts it, the Israeli government was "forced to apologise" for disseminating the "We Con the World" song-spoof about the Gaza Flotilla. We have now learned that it was originally felt that a new apologetic song was in order, that being the only thing that could adequately atone for the original offense. They then decided that this whole song-parody approach wasn't working out and was best abandoned. We have obtained a draft of the now never-to-be-completed apology song:

We're so sorry Peace Flotilla
We're so sorry if we acted somewhat brave
We're so sorry Peace Flotilla
But there are no beitzim here
And we believe we’re gonna cave
We're so sorry but we haven't had a spine all day
We're so Sorry Peace Flotilla
But if anything should happen we'll apologize away

We're so sorry Peace Flotilla
But we haven't done a bloody thing all day
We're so sorry Peace Flotilla
But to tell the truth takes guts and we're so easily called away

Iran applauds the martyrs (martyrs)
Qassams across the sky

Qassams across the sky
Uncle Recep notified me
He had to break the siege so he had to get to sea
I had another look and I had a cup of tea and some humble pie
(I used to have a spine, but I hung it out to dry)

Sail a little, be a gypsy, get around (get around)
Do be careful not to drown
Sail a little, get around
Sail a little, be a gypsy, get around (get around)
Do be careful not to drown
Sail a little, get around

Meanwhile, in other flotilla news, the Turkish Foreign Minister has declared that the Flotilla skirmish is "Turkey's 9/11." Other measured and cogent Zionism-related statements by Muslim national spokespersons include the recent revelation by a Syrian diplomat that Jewish children riding busses sing the following ditty:
With my teeth I will rip your flesh, with my mouth I will suck your blood.
An apology from the Israeli government for the children's crime is expected shortly, and other upcoming apologetic events include a new flotilla by a Jewish group. We also deeply regret the above post.
