A New York City school’s decision to hold a moment of silence for Palestinian victims of last week's violence at the Israel-Gaza border has enraged some parents.
The New York Post reported that students at The Beacon School in Manhattan were asked to pause to pay tribute to the more than 60 Palestinians killed.
Numerous outlets painted Israel as the aggressor as its security forces opened fire when mass protests by the Palestinians erupted after the opening of the U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem.
A senior official for Hamas said that 50 of the protesters killed were members of the terrorist group.
