Israel is bracing for several weeks of military and diplomatic confrontation that began with Friday’s march in the Gazoo Strip that left 16 Paleostinians dead and hundreds more injured and is expected to continue until May 15, which the Paleostinians mark as Nakba Day, the "Day of Catastrophe" marking Israel’s birth.
