Here's what I read in article:
The Advocate General's opinion said that goods produced by Muslims are to be labeled from ‘Palestine,' and goods produced by Jews labeled as coming from ‘Israeli colonies,' Goldstein said. "Both people are living in the same geographic location, and yet Jewish goods are being treated differently."

"Could the discrimination be any clearer?"

Just how much does the title "Europe Poised to Put Warning Labels on Jewish-Made Products," disagree with that text from the article?

Or are you making the measly point that they haven't yet targeted ALL jewish products.

Come on don’t t be silly

The headline is meant to sensationalize

The stupid title most damn well sure lead folks to think all Jewish products in the EU will be labeled which is crazy as hell

The reality is these numbnuts actually want to label Israeli goods made by Israelis in what they deem occupied territories like the West Bank

Which is a far cry from labeling Jewish goods pell mell

Title should have read:

Products from Israeli occupied Palestinian lands to be labeled as such

But no they sensationalized it and it’s misleading

France for instance has wineries, fashion houses, chocolate makers, banks and so forth....some are French iconic businesses owned by Jews

The headline indicates those would have been labeled

And Freepers who as a rule don’t read articles went for it

The inconsistency in the whole idiotic affair is that not all products made by Israelis in the West Bank are made by Jews

Some are owned by non Jewish Israelis which make up 20-25% of Israel population so is this directed exclusively at Jews or Israelis

If it’s the latter then the headline is more off

Or will they determine if this West Bank product is made by Israeli Arab and exclude it..

Olive oil for example
