Paraguay pisses Israel off

Paraguay, apparently, figured that French kissing the U.S. decision to move its embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem was a bit too stifling, whatever the cost.
Paraguay has reversed a decision to move its embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem after just three months, prompting anger from Israel which responded by shuttering its embassy in AsunciĆ³n and recalling its ambassador....
Diplomats had warned that the December announcement could see a return to violence in the region. On the day Washington’s embassy was opened in Jerusalem – attended by Trump’s daughter, Ivanka, and her husband, Jared Kushner – Israeli forces shot and killed 58 Palestinians protesting against the event.

  1. I imagine Paraguayans can relate to the poverty of the Palestinians.
