THE killing of 60 unarmed protestors in Gaza last week, at exactly the same time that Ivanka Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu presided over the glitzy opening of the US embassy in Jerusalem, was a contrast too bloody and grotesque to ignore.
The laughing, giggling, self-congratulating crowd at the embassy could not have been more different from the blood-covered demonstrators ferrying the dead and wounded from the battlefield.
The Israeli government, emboldened by the support it has received from Donald Trump, gave orders to shoot at the protests, which the army did — not only killing the 60 but, as on previous occasions, wounding very large numbers often shot in the limbs in order to immobilise them.
