Within the space of two days, Israel has exposed its hypocritical scheming when it comes to Palestinians. Two and a half years after its devastating aggression on Gaza, the government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has approved the reconstruction of 1,500 homes destroyed during the relentless bombing in Summer 2014; even if they are rebuilt (and that is open to question), it still leaves around 60,000 Palestinian families who are homeless in Gaza. Meanwhile, Netanyahu has also promised the lifting of restrictions on settlement construction in occupied East Jerusalem.
