But the international community remains almost silent. Why? Joining us again is Gaza-based journalist, Issam Adwan, who describes the scenes there now following a night were Israel showered Gaza with 50 tonnes of deadly military munitions. We also discuss the events in East Jerusalem, the West Bank and why the anti-government protests in Israel, did not go so far as to include the plight of Palestinians and if anything the stalemate has made the violence worse.
