On the 5th of December, supporters of Palestine held a silent die-in at the Embassy of Israel. The Embassy played loud music over their sound system. This was confirmed to have been Israel’s national anthem.

Only thing is, that anthem is somber enough to match the theme of the protest! A Palestinian Embassy supporting the protest could have played similar music by a different author with essentially the same result. Furthermore, the Israeli national anthem over posters of murdered children and child-size bodybags makes a statement of its own.
