All people can live in peace,’ says Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner as Israeli forces shoot dead 43 Palestinian protesters and injure over 1,900 more at protests along the Gaza-Israeli border.
That is 43 people shot on their own land protesting about the military occupation of their land by the occupier of seven decades Israel which is wagging the dog that is America.
Amnesty International has called the Israeli violence in Gaza 'an abhorrent violation of international law & human rights' and the latest information includes six children among the 43 fatalities according to the human rights organisation.
The United Nations have released a statement that says: 'Shocking killing of dozens, injury of hundreds by Israeli live fire in Gaza must stop now. The right to life must be respected. Those responsible for outrageous human rights violations must be held to account'.
The United Nations is the organisation that can do it by bringing Israel to heel because as US and Israeli dignitaries are back-slapping at the Jerusalem embassy opening, Israeli snipers massacre unarmed Palestinians in Gaza.
Could there be a starker visual reminder that Israel and it's backer America are the problem and are overseeing genocide and murder in the Middle East and the World needs to tell them that they may have got away with this abhorrent behaviour in the past but enough is enough.
If America can sanction Iran and North Korea for something they could do, Israel needs to be hammered for the killing they are actually doing and have been doing for decades.

Definition of genocide - the deliberate killing of a large group of people, especially those of a particular nation or ethnic group.
Sounds accurate to me unless you want to quibble over what a large group of people is.
