Europeans Are Major Force Behind Second Gaza Flotilla
The so-called Freedom Flotilla 2, a convoy of about ten ships hoping to break an Israeli naval blockade of the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip, has been off to an inauspicious start. With two vessels disabled due to alleged “sabotage” and other boats held up in a port in Athens by the Greek government, the flotilla will not set sail for at least another few days and may be called off altogether.
Whatever its fate, the flotilla has considerable public support in Europe, where opposition to Israel often crosses the line into anti-Semitism. Although a handful of Americans, Canadians, and Middle Easterners (as well as a few Aussies and Kiwis) are among the 500 pro-Palestinian activists hoping to sail with the flotilla, the majority of its organizers, supporters and actual participants are from Europe, which has become “ground zero” in the global campaign of boycotts, divestment, and sanctions (BDS) against Israel.
The Gaza flotilla is, in fact, an integral part of a growing European movement to delegitimize the state of Israel. It is rooted in the program of political warfare to achieve the “complete international isolation of Israel” that was launched at the UN conference against racism in Durban, South Africa in 2001.
European charities linked to left-wing and pro-Palestinian causes have raised an estimated €10 million ($14.5 million) to fund the flotilla. Many European politicians and members of the European Parliament as well as media outlets have expressed strong support for it in public. The flotilla has been organized from Britain and the main operational hub is in Greece.
Eight out of the ten vessels comprising the flotilla are European. They include the “Dignity” and the “Louise Michel” from France, the “Saoirse” (Gaelic for freedom) from Ireland, the “Stefano Chiarini” from Italy, the “Guernica” from Spain, the “Juliano” from Sweden, and two Greek cargo ships carrying 3,000 tons of supplies. The two other ships are the “Tahrir” from Canada and “The Audacity of Hope” from the United States.
The European Freedom Flotilla website has pooled information on flotilla campaigns in the various European countries. Some of these include: Belgium to Gaza, Free Gaza Denmark, Ship to Gaza Greece, Freedom Flotilla Italia, Ship to Gaza Netherlands, Ship to Gaza Norway, Free Gaza Scotland, Ship to Gaza Sweden, and so on.
Other pan-European groups directly or indirectly involved in the flotilla include the Brussels-based European Coordination of Committees and Associations for Palestine, the London-based Palestinian Return Center, and the Oslo-based European Network to Support Rights of Palestinian Prisoners.
Britain has hosted much of the organizing apparatus of the flotilla, which is being coordinated out of London by Mohammad Sawalha, a senior Muslim Brotherhood operative closely linked to Hamas and who was granted asylum by Britain in 1990.
Sawalha — together with Zaher Birawi, another Hamas activist living in Britain — is a director of Britain2Gaza, a coalition of left-wing and Islamist organizations participating in the flotilla that includes groups like: the British Muslim Initiative, the Friends of Al-Aqsa, the Palestinian Forum in Britain, the Palestine Solidarity Campaign, and the Stop the War Coalition. Sawalha is also the vice chairman of the European Campaign to End the Siege on Gaza, a British-based group that coordinates the Miles of Smiles land convoys to Gaza.
Britain is also home to the Boycott Israeli Goods Campaign, the Palestine Solidarity Campaign (which is working to “build a mass anti-Apartheid movement for Palestine”), Interpal, Freedom for Palestine, A Just Peace for Palestine, Stop Arming Israel, Oxford-Ramallah Friendship Association, Reading-Palestine Solidarity Campaign, Viva Palestina, Medical Aid for Palestinians, the Scottish-Palestine Solidarity Campaign, and many more.
British Foreign Secretary William Hague says the flotilla is unwise and has advised Britons not to participate in it. But he himself has contributed to the BDS campaign against Israel by his failure to honor a long-standing promise to amend British universal jurisdiction laws in a way that would make it safe for Israeli leaders to visit Britain without the risk of detention on frivolous allegations of war crimes.
Now. As far as resolving one’s corporeal existence in the world with finality, instead of this haphazard “we are the world” plan, wouldn’t it be much easier to detonate all of your own nuclear weapons all at once? I thought you suicides – in the individual or the aggregate – were efficient in that regard?
More power to you, fools. You pull the trigger on your own weepy, dysfunctional, Socialist world by supporting these characters. Can you say, “Dhimmi?” Sure you can.
I knew you could.
There seems to be a committee or group for each person on the Flotilla. 200 people, 200 committees…………
They’ve really impressed me!
What I find truly disturbing,is the name of one of the ships,whose main function, is to cause trouble for Israel,America’s only ally,in the Gaza strip.There is not one word of admonition, from President Obama,who remains silent,while Israel is in the cross hairs. The ship,is Christened,{a strange word to use for Christian and Jewish Haters} with the title of Obama’s book ” The Audacity Of Hope.” which Obama dedicated to Bill Ayers. There are rumors that Ayers is the real author, but Obama gets the credit. Where is the leader of the free world, while the flotilla of hate sets sail to destroy one of the USA friends? Is it because he is more concerned with hurting the feelings of his terrorist friends from the 1960′s Mr and Mrs Ayers. the couple caused havoc in the USA by setting off bombs in public places with intentions to kill US citizens. Former Weathermen leaders, Bill Ayers and his wife Bernadette Doiron, would have us believe they have reformed, but alas, here they are again as adults, spreading the same hatred they espoused almost 60 years ago. How easy we forget the terror these two and their friends, caused,by setting off bombs to blow up USA buildings, with the intent to kill, maim and cause havoc in the USA. To this day, they do not regret their actions, and are still out to cause chaos with the Flotilla. All the time America’s President sits on his hands, while our Ally Israel,is under attack by his former weathermen friends. Another interesting thought, is the Lame stream media,who never met a leftist they didnt agree with,are going on the trip to Gaza.
Joanf, Obama is a traitor, communist, moslem megalomaniac- a sociopathic personality who is busy doing all he can to communize America, and to make us into an islamic nation. By doing what he can to isolate Israel he aids and abets the crazy, raghead moslems committed to Israels’ destruction. He is not sitting on his hands. He is not nonplussed or even confused. He sees himself as the moslem Mahdi and acts the part. He has nationalized a large part of our private enterprise, spent us into bankruptcy, and done absolutely nothing to deal with the nukes of Iran and North Korea. He is the tool of the International Bankers, that cartel of demoniacs we foolishly allow to establish the economy of the world. We need desperately to end the Fed, the IMF, the World Bank and all other organizations, especially the UN, which subvert and infringe upon US sovereignty. If we do not do so, NOW, we will find ourselves impoverished slaves to a New World Order, ie, a global communist dictatorship, and persecuted by islamic armies. An elite banking cartel will control from behind the scenes, like a Cardinal Richlieu; but the moslem Mahdi will be the front man. The rest of us will be relegated to the status of chattels- pieces of property, to be used as our owners direct. We need to start all over, and do it right this time.
Thank you- White Tiger. I agree with everything you wrote. If we can get other patriotic Americans, to wake up and realize that we are headed towards a dark future with this administration. The damage, they have managed to do in a short time is a warning sign, that they do not have good intentions for America’s future well being.
wouldn’t you think that Obama might come out and disavow the “Audacity of Hope” ship, if not Ayers and Dohrn themselves? Obama’s trying to make the Jews believe he really supports Israel, even though we can all see perfectly well that he does not, so wouldn’t he at least say something?
When the Israeli Navy gets done with those morons I hope they all get to say hi to Rachel Corrie.
We should teach the Europeans a lesson they’ll never forget – pull out our troops that subsidize their socialist lifestyle and dissolve NATO which has become nothing more than a tool of war for them. When the next war breaks out between some of them – and it will – we’ll break out the popcorn and watch.
Did Hitler teach these morons nothing?
How disgusting that we continue to give them our support. And they are not only anti-Jew but anti-American.
It’s difficult at times not to think that, in European eyes, Hitler’s biggest crime was being so gauche by openly expressing widely held, deep antisemitism. The Muslim Euro-mobs are simply bringing back to the surface what has always been there.
“Did Hitler teach these morons nothing?”
Yup. He taught them that if you want to wipe the Jews off the face of the earth, you have to finish the job.
Look, this shows that Europeans are today what they have always been:
Degenerate, frothing, genocidal Nazi savages.
They did a deal with the Arabs a long time ago. They love a Jewish genocide it’s all that keeps thier pathetic egos going.
It’d be a real shame if the boats that actually do sail out of Greece sank to the bottom of the Mediterranean with all hands lost.
At least no brains will be lost.
The gene pool will be that much better off!
These activists aren’t just a boil on the hind end of humanity, they’re a malignant cancer.
Words really can’t describe the disgust that I have for them and the sooner these morons are gone, the better off the world will be.
It just staggers the imagination that 78 years ago the Nazis started pulling their garbage, and before that the Czars were generally giving them the business. So, after a world war was fought, in part to exterminate such racist hatred, it lasted not so long. One (very long) lifetime. How proud the socialists in Europe must be to be so discriminating as to hate Israel and, by association, the Jews. What happened from 1938 (Kristallnacht) to 1945…how many Jews were exterminated? Did Europe learn nothing from this at all? Or, is it like Ach-I-need-a-job says, “It never happened”? History is on a very scary verge of repeating itself here.
Antisemitism is built-in to a large segment of the European population – their psyche, culture, and religion have always harbored it. And so very many of Europe’s [nay, the world's] socialists think, “Well, maybe Stalin got a bit of it wrong, but surely we can do a better job this time around.” That applies both to their form of government/economy and their treatment of the Jews.
Europe is a sewer. I am glad my parents left. df
Define “major” as in ‘Europeans are a major force …’ for me, would’ya, and detail the ethnicity of the members of the various groupings, why don’t ‘cha.
Why don’t you do you own research? It would improve your writing skills and your knowledge of the world in which we live.
So you think all Europeans are the same, do you? Alternatively, because I think your comment is stupid, by definition all Americans are stupid, right?
Major as in boats/ships sailing under Italy, Sweden, France, Spain, etc. That’s major.
You need to read Yochanan Visser’s article in today’s Digest and perhaps you’ll realize that there are diffuse opinions on most matters in Europe just as there are here – after all, many people think that all Americans are warmongers or that the Tea Party are a bunch of racists, don’t they?
That’s why ‘major’, used here in a judgemental way, is totally the wrong word. ‘Major’ would be if the boats were sponsored by the all the governments of Europe and if significant numbers of people, actually born in Europe, were clammering to get on board. Instead they’ve had to buy their own boats and their total complement doesn’t even reach the level of ‘many’.
You should see the fact that no-one is stopping them as proof of the freedoms that prevail in Europe and not as proof of anti-Semitism.
Have you noticed the current affairs in each of the areas supporting this freedom fight?
The times are different then what (appeared) in the past: mess with the Jewish people, face the Consequences! The zionists themselves may not realize it but Those that bless you will be blessed, those that curse you,well, just ask the Greek protestors, not of the flotilla, but of the austerity plan.
Europe in general and the UK in particular, which recorded the highest number of anti-Semitic incidents of any country in the entire world last year, is now the global centre of extreme Israel and Jew hatred on a level not seen since the Thirties. The new Israeli UN ambassador, Ron Prosor, will find it a stroll in the park after previously enduring the London posting. This is where a member of the House of Lords, the upper chamber of Parliament, could seriously suggest that Israel set up the field hospital in Haiti in order to harvest human organs. This is considered acceptable behaviour and caused no outrage.
Meanwhile Christian Europe is disappearing into the World Caliphate and they will soon be officially Dhimmis in what were once their own countries. Poetic justice perhaps but still nauseating.
And to think the Jews here in the US vote democratic.
“And to think the Jews here in the US vote democratic.”
Throughout history, the Jews have demonstrated a consistent inability to recognize who their friends are.
Really, I want to know just how long the republicans have been in love with the Jews? I remember working for Jerry Ford for the Presidency and going to a Republican meeting. The first thing I heard was a Jew joke. I could just feel the love.
If its hard for them to recognize their new friends, it might be because they have long memories. I have plenty of other stories about the love……… What makes me a Republican is just pragmatism, I still don’t feel the love.
That’s anecdotal, O Chinless One! Many Republicans are Christians, and we Christians worship our Lord, Jesus Christ, a Jew. One cannot conceive of an antisemite worshipping a Jew, can one? Yes, one can find the ignorant, the prejudiced among any group, but it is not logical to blame the group for the malice of a minority of its members.Bibi got a standing ovation from Congress when he stood up to Oscumbag. Even deducting for rank hypocrisy, it wouldn’t appear that we will sell out the Israelis.
Anecdotally, I am an ethnic Jew and a Christian by choice. If Bibi’s guys will loan me an Ak, I will stand with them against their oppressors.
Throughtout history, their purported “friends” have shown themselves to be ANYTHING BUT!!
I’m sick of Jews being blamed for Obama’s election. A whole bunch of idiotic Christians, Jedis, and other non Jews voted the Commie Muslism in, so just accept that you guys were a bunch of gullible idiots and try not to vote him in again.
“Considering all the problems besetting Europe today, the issue many Europeans care about most is … the Gaza Strip.”
It’s called “anti-semitism” and it’s alive and well in Europe. And they’re not alone. Our own president is one of this group and they all seem to believe that if Israel disappeared tomorrow that everything would be swell in the Middle East. The don’t get the fact that Iran under the banner of radical Islam is trying to take over the Middle East to establish a new caliphate. Nope, they don’t also seem to get the fact that the Muslim Brotherhood is about to take over Egypt. What do you think that will do to the security of the Suez Canal, not to mention the end of the Camp David Accords? Anti-semitism is so bad in Europe and with Obama that it’s blinding them to the real dangers in the Middle East, which is Iran and radical Islam. If they don’t wake up soon, a major arab-Israeli war will break out and you can put the blame for that squarely on the shoulders of Obama and Europe.
It is interesting to ponder just a moment on what these folks must have in mind for an end game in Palestine. It is hard to separate support for an outfit like Hamas from the eventual eradication of the Israel. Then what? A subjugation or worse, maybe a slaughter of the Jews? A return of the Jews to Europe and America? What do they want?
To kill the Jews.
They want to kill the Jews. What these filthy, stupid, crazed, Euro-Nazi savages can’t get through their heads is that now the Jews have a military and nuclear arsenal greater than any European nation (excepting Russia), and if Israel goes down, the whole world goes down with her.
These people in Europe are such f**king ceranged Nazi lunatics that they care more about exterminating the Jews than their own lives.
No wonder they love the Palis so much.
There is very little reason to believe that Europe would not have been perfectly happy under a Nazi victory. It would have meant a draw-down of troops that would have made occupation far more livable, socialism everywhere and the end of the Jews.
The flotilla is simply the continuation of the Fascist, Muslim Brotherhood alliance which goes back to the thirties. Rather than try to convince a world that doesn’t care about how Israel tries to be humane Israel should announce it will fight against this historical alliance and fire a warning shot across the flotilla bows. If they don’t turn around, they should fire. This needs to end.
No, dummy, it would have meant slave camps and death for millions more, and the dictatorship of a genocidist madman. Read a little history and see that Hitler slaughtered one group after another.A demoniac, he just enjoyed killing as you might enjoy petting your dog.He even slaughtered his own SS troops, with wild charges and a butchershop generalship that cost Germany most of its best men early on. By the end of WWII they were fighting with young boys and old men, because their 1As were mostly dead and buried.When he ran out of Jews to kill, the Catholics probably would have been next. Then the Protestants. And when he finally got down to his own kind, even his fellow satanists would have been tortured and gassed.
All that enslavement and death would not have mattered to most Europeans. All they would have cared about is getting rid of the Jews. Once that was accomplished, they would have tolerated anything from the Nazis.
Shame on Europe! They, of all people, should know and fear the consequences of siding with Islam against Israel. In their efforts to be liberal and progressive and tolerant, they will eventually sign their own death warrants. Evil can never be tolerated! Isn’t it about time we stand up and speak the truth?
They’re just picking on Israel because it’s handy. Readers of Eric Hoffer’s “The True Believer” will recall the part where the Japanese ambassador to Germany, prior to WWII, was asked what he thought of Nazism. He replied that it was wonderful, and that he wished Japan could have something like it. Unfortunately they couldn’t, because they didn’t have any Jews. If the Europeans didn’t have Israel they’d just find someone else to torment, to distract themselves from their trouble and to have someone to blame.
I take Mr. Qaddafi at his word. I predict that Libya will attack Europe before the end of the week and that Europe will sue for peace before the end of July after first turning to “dick” for assistance and being rebuffed. Mr. Qaddafi will demand a host of Muslim oriented concessions to which Europe will eagerly accede in order to go back to their televised football matches. European women may squawk at first regarding the new dress code but a few public virginity checks of demonstrators will put an end to that. The caliphate marches on.
Qaddafi will attack Europe next week?
Couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch of leftover collaborateurs.
Vichy swine. Qaddafi can’t bomb them quick enough. If it were up to the Eurotrash, they would dig up Heydrich and the Einsatzkommando and send them along to Gaza.
Please stop accusing the Europeans of anti-semitism. I know there was that whole holocaust thing that happened a few years back, which, as I understand, was supported by more than a few Europeans nations other than Germany. And I’m aware that there had been a bit of difficulty for Jews throughout Europe in the millenia or so prior to that. And there was that whole Arab cleansing thing when they held Spain (ir was it Andulusia?) for those 800 years. And I know that the Crusaders pillaged and murdered entire Jewish communities on the way to their Holy Wars. And I’m aware that the vast, vast, vast, majority of attacks on Synagogues and Jewish cemetaries take place in otherwise civilized European nations, Like France. And also, I am familiar with that fact that those far, far, farthest left Americans among us, like Medea Benjamin and Bill Ayers, have aligned themselves with those caring Europeans who wish to deliver humanitarian aid to the suffering Gazans (Bernadette Dohrn was on the last “flotilla”). It was, after all, Medea Benjamin, a self-describer “nice Jewish girl” who recently rallied againt the Israelias as being the most “murderous” people on the planet. I get all that (and quite a bit more). But does that make the Eurpoeans anti-semetic? Of course not….don’t be a maroon.
This is a brilliant statement. Truly. All throughout history, the Jews seem to get blamed for any nation’s imperfections or problems. LE, you nailed it this time. Scapegoats of convenience, run off from their own lands, run off from Russia, captured and exterminated in Nazi Germany…etc, etc. It has gone on for thousands of years. I guess it only proves that humans really do not learn.
Jew massacres have been the go-to response of Europeans for centuries. I did not realise this until I read the book The Anguish of the Jews (sorry forgot author).
THis is nothing out of the way, but this time it’s been whipped up by Muslim presence in Europe and the Bargain de Gaulle and the EU made with the Areabs years ago to dump Israel and support Muslims.
Maybe we should make Israel the 51st state and watch the Euroweenies squirm. OTOH, they’d probably vote for Democrats.
Under Hambone, that would have to be the 58th state, no? Sorry, don’t mean to cloud the issue as he was most likely referring the the 57 states of the muslim world. But who’s to say? He gets everything else right, doesn’t he? (sarc)
There is nothing new about the leftist taste for totalitarian ideologies. People would do well to remember that American leftists only opposed Hitler after he attacked the USSR.
SGT Ted at 21 is quite right. This seems to be a leftist thing rather than a European thing. One question I would ask anyone who doubts this is “How many of the groups and people the article names are *not* leftist even by European standards let alone by ours?” If Obama and the Democrats were a bit more dominant than they are I bet you’d see a lot of the same thing here.
This is awesome.
At last someone had the guts to call out the “Europeans” on this.
For years I’ve been saying that Europe and their bedfellow Russians have been behind strengthening Islamists around the globe!
The most interesting development in this is that the Greek government, which has a talent for choosing the worst possible alternative, seems to be doing the right thing about the latest version of the flotilla – arresting captains and threatening to arrest others who would leave port.
Springtime for Hitler and Germany (Thanks Mel Brooks) Everything Old is New Again-
Hmm countries going broke and their gov’ts using Jews to deflect blame, how original(not)
Hmm Judeophobes finding public acceptance of their prejudices-
and feeling free to spew at will- Alliances of Socailists with Islamic jewhaters- oh how proud the Mufti must be
Israel the collective JEW- blamed for every evil,blood-libeled,hated, EU JEws punished for her “sins”.
re-runs are so boring
Thanks! The impressive anti-Israel`s hate-front of the whole Europe shows that anti-semitism still is the best remedy of unification of EU. And the Israel`s image substitute the invisible in Europe Jews.Lefts and rights unite in this dirty company.
Years ago the actor Walter Slezak (who escaped the Nazis from Vienna) was
invited back to Austria as an Austrian who made it. He refused to return for
many years. He finally agreed and was interviewed on Austrian television. He was asked two questions: what is Austria’s greatest accomplishment? His answer “Claiming Beethoven and disclaiming Hitler.” What’s the difference between the
Austrians and the Germans? He said “the Germans used to be Nazis. The Austrians
still are.” Unfortunately for the Jews that is more applicable to the rest of Europe today than before. The one thing common to both the Left and extreme Right is anti-Semitism. Remember, there are very few, if any degrees of separation between Communism (Progressives) and National Socialism. The real liberal Democrat party died with Hubert Humphrey and Scoop Jackson.
“”The real liberal Democrat party died with Hubert Humphrey and Scoop Jackson” is so true!
The people called Libernals today do not have a liberal bone in their body, nor attitude in their mind. They are totalitarians, who were
‘red diaper babies” as described by Ron Radosh in “Commies”.
Lovely Earth
I’ll bet you turned a deep shade of maroon when you realized you error in spelling – but you are a moron and your understanding of the world is moronic – you are a ‘Richard Cranium’ extraordinaire.
I have been screaming about the unholy alliance between the Muslim Brotherhood and the stupid Progressive – Socialist cabal funded by large union groups and ‘Grandpa Wrinkles’- George Soros!
A flotilla is only a worry while it is floating – so sink it.
A lying – simpleton for a president is only a worry while he is in office – so?
Together we can make real changes – bill.rhodesway@gmail.com
There can’t be a Red-Green Alliance, because that would mean that Glenn Beck was right. [end sarcasm]
My daughter is named “Saoirse.” She is named in honor of my grandfather and great uncle who fought in the War for Independence (Donegal Brigade) and later with the Republicans during the Irish Civil War. They both left Ireland one step (according to family legend) ahead of a Free State firing squad. Both became American citizens as “the Ireland they fought for did not exist” and said they had fought to free all of Ireland, not part of it. My Grandfather was bitter at how the majority of the 26 counties, now that they had their freedom, turned their backs on those left in the remaining six. I may be viewing things from the cheap seats of the diaspora, but I think the Irish participating in this would do better to focus their efforts in a peaceful reunification with the last six counties.
You can’t mean “the Irish participating in the Gaza Flotilla”, can you?
Or has the Mother Ship dropped me off in the wrong galaxy again?
Why do they blame Israel instead of focusing on real problems? Because the deflection from bad government works and has worked for milenia. One only need look at Gaza or the Arabs or any other dictatorship.
Don’t think that these people will ever wise up and realize that they are being played. History shows they would rather throw stones than do the hard work of getting informed and involved.
I hope the Israeli Navy has enough torpedoes.
Be nice if these Eurotrash terrorist-snugglers would organize a flotilla to help
the people of, say, Syria, who are being murdered in the street by their own government. Then I might concede that they are at least being even-handed.
Of course, it’s much safer acting as a human shield for Yasser Arafat’s compound than it is for, say, an Israeli school bus or a Syrian protest rally.
Steady on folks. That’s a pretty serious anti-European frenzy you’re working yourselves into there.
Any chance of a bit of perspective? So all 500m “Europeans” are anti-Israeli or born-again Nazis are they? Get a grip on yourselves. Just like in the US there are is a small percentage of the population that are politically motivated and lean towards the “downtrodden” Palestinians but…just like the US…… the vast majority don’t have time to wallow in politics because they are busy trying to get on with their lives of working and raising kids. The left control the media in many European countries – JUST like the US – so its strange that you feel you can judge us “Europeans” but ignore your own short-comings.
And whats this BS about Europe embracing Islam? Europe is landlocked with many Islamic majority countries so its no surprise that there is a pretty small Islamic percentage of the European population. How’s that Mexico thing working out for you guys? I assume you are all pro-Mexican because there are plenty of them pouring across your borders?
Shame on you and your ignorance.
Apologies for unjust criticisms from some of us.
What seems to be true, in re several conservative websites, is that EU members have increasingly catered to moslem demands for acceptance of Sharia law, have granted moslems exemptions from various laws, and have ridden roughshod over the constitutional rights of christians in order to placate the moslem demands.
The piece of, ( I can’t think of a sufficiently vile word to use), currently infesting the White House is a moslem and would love to see the US under moslem domination. Your point is well taken. We are tolerating the same evil y’all tolerate. And we shall all be eaten by the same alligator.
With all due respect your view on Europe is very naive and at best optimistic. Just a deep look back in Europe’s history you’ll see that Europe is not JUST MERELY neighbor to the Islamic nations, but real bedfellows with their chieftains, tribal leaders, dictators all for the control of their vast resources. You may not even know that “Queen of England” once in the 1970′s during the mayhem of deep recession in Europe and specially England, she mentioned that in order for the “Great Britain” to have a healthy economy and move forward, the policy should be: “Keep the Persians Hungry, and the Arabs Rich”!!!!
Now if you look back at that period in time when the old hag of England said such thing, The Shah was the leader of Iran (The Persians)and Iran was on the rise economically, militarily and even gave a big loan to England which pissed off the Queen of course. The Arabs however were poor, tribal and hungry.
Should I go ahead and mention here what happened next?!!!
Yes the Islamic revolution in Iran supported and planned by Carter and the British unseating the Shah the Queen despised and planting Khomeini an Islamist mad man they wanted to impose. Iran the secular advanced nation changed into a backward Islamist country while little by little the Arab nations got stronger with the help of Europe and specially England, giving money in billions through the World Bank and their own reserves, you started seeing the tribal leader with raggedy clothes started wearing Armani suits and the most expensive ties but still harboring their backward Islamic cultures. Yes and Europe wantingly allowed huge immigration of moslems into their lands to the point that the new immigrants throw stones to the police force and still not get prosecuted. It’s insane, yes Europe is and has been Islmaists bedfellows for a century and more…
Always read through the lines, re-read history through different lenses we’re used to, and do not believe in rhetorics.
Let Europe side with the muslems, but what are the Europeans going to do while the muslems are killing their men,women and children? Not only killing the women but raping them first then using the women as sex slaves and the children as servants. You can ridicule what I am saying, some of the inmans already have made video tapes explaining this very action to take place.
I would appreciate it if you could provide links for those assertions. Thanks
The most amazing thing.
Unexpectedly, the Greeks stopped the flotilla from sailing.
It is as though common sense had bloomed in Greece.
This could have something to do with the new Israeli gas resources that may come to Europe via undersea pipeline to Greece.
You needed a pick-me-up of good news for a change.
There it is.
They did a deal with the Arabs years ago. Jewish genocide is the only thing that keeps their patghetic egos alive.
All that money going to support the deeath of Jews. I thought the Europeans had a financial crisis!! Clearly not!!
Tony R is right.
It isn’t just Europe involved in this hateful anti-Israel campaign. There has been a fair bit of American input via the Audacity of Hope, Alice Walker, 3,000 letters of support from Americans being delivered to Gaza via the flotilla and the refusal to withold satellite and navigation services by Inmarsat.
This Friday a ‘flytilla’ is due to descend on Ben Gurion airport and apparently, that was dreamt up by Paul Larudee of the Californian ‘Free Palestine’ movement’
“..Once again, some familiar faces are behind this latest stunt. It was dreamed up by a co-founder of the ‘Free Gaza’ movement – one of the partners also behind the flotillas – Paul Larudee. Larudee – who also has a long history of involvement with the ISM and was deported from Israel in 2006 – now heads the California-based ‘Free Palestine’ movement …..”

Europe and the USA are in identical boats (if you’ll excuse the pun). In both cases the ordinary people are NOT represented by the handful of activists or the left-dominated media.
78% of USA jews voted Obumbble
holywouldn’t, run by jews supported Obumbble
the lamstreamedia, with it’s many many jewish reporters supported Obumbble
soros, and socialist hungarian jew supported and financed Obumbble
Rahm and Axle(rod) are jews, as are many of “HIS” staff
this whole nonsense is joos eating their own, t’is what lefties do
