For the first time in its history since 1948  when Palestinians had been forcibly and violently evicted from 75% of their territory for the implantation of  Israel, an event that ensued in horrific bloodshed for both, Jews and  Palestinians,  all of the embassies of Israel throughout the world’s 102 countries have been forced to shut down by its own diplomatic corps which has gone on a collective strike for wage increases since the average pay for diplomats ranges from about $1,200 to $ 1,600 dollars per month.

This comes in stark contrast to Prime Minister Netanyahu’s extravagant spending on air tickets to places such as London (inter alia) where he has been slammed by Israeli media for spending $ 127,000 dollars for a flight with his wife.
