Trump move to re-locate US embassy to Jerusalem Al-Quds has emboldened the Israeli regime for becoming more aggressive in their diplomatic behavior as well as escalating the violence in occupied territories like Gaza.
The events which took place at the border (march of return) before and right after the provocative move to recognize Jerusalem Al-Quds as Israels capital has had a direct and immediate deadly consequence, claiming the lives of many.
The Trump rhetoric about a strong commitment to peace sounded especially empty when the occupied territories are burning, sniper shootings and death tolls rising.
The Gaza Strip has been under an Israeli blockade since June 2007. The blockade has caused a decline in the standard of living as well as unprecedented levels of unemployment and unrelenting poverty.
