Hundreds of tents are to be erected near the Gaza-Israel border for a six-week protest, officials said Thursday, in what may stir fresh tensions with Israeli forces.

Protesters plan to call for the granting of a right of return for millions of so-called “Palestinian refugees” across the Middle East.
Organizers said the families could stay in the tents for prolonged periods, with youth and community activities planned.
The demonstration has the backing of all political factions in the Gaza Strip, including the terrorist group Hamas, which rules the Strip.
Israeli media said the army viewed the event as a potential security threat, while authorities were concerned over how to respond if violence erupted with women and children among the protesters.

Yeah, you’re right. Gaza City is just that, a city bought & paid for by stupid Western philanthropists who hate Israel.
Pres. Trump will be in Jerusalem on May 14th not only for the dedication of our embassy there but for the 70th anniversary of the proclaiming of the state of Israel.
If rocket attacks are launched from the Gazan tent city on that date, the IDF will know exactly what to do at the same time as DJT is saying “I told you so!” to a skeptical world.
Can Arabs/Muslims hate America & Israel any more than they already do? Embassy day will serve as a reality check. Those b@stards hate us and want us dead. War it is & always has been.
