EU officials will begin drawing up a list of extremist Israeli settlers who have been attacking Palestinians in the West Bank so they may be subject to potential sanctions, according to the EU’s chief diplomat.

The announcement by Josep Borrell followed the statement earlier by Tánaiste Micheál Martin that Ireland would be “very open” to imposing sanctions and travel bans on extremist settlers if there is no agreement at EU level.

Mr. Borrell, the EU’s High Representative for Foreign Policy, said the issue was discussed during today’s meeting of EU foreign ministers in Brussels.

While there was as yet no unanimity on the idea among capitals, Mr. Borrell said that officials would begin drawing up lists of potential targets. […]

Under the EU’s sanctions procedure, the European Commission draws up lists of individuals and entities, and member states then give their approval or otherwise.

Mr. Borrell said: “We will be proposing sanctions against these persons in the context of the instruments we have at our disposal. We want to defend human rights, and member states will then decide whether it is appropriate to adopt these measures.” …

Stinking rotten EuroNazi ringleaders can be reached, too.
They should consider this.

What about people who murder Israelis? Is the EU going to prevent them from traveling to the Totalitarian State of Europe?

Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.

Now why would Republicans per se be interested in that? Like the Democratic wing of the Uniparty, they are in sync with and are sympatico with the extremist EU bureaucrats/technocrats.

You didn’t notice that the Biden Administration first came up with the idea of persecuting Jews in Israel who actually engage in self-defense? Ireland and EU likely bowing to American pressure.

Israel needs to ban Jews and their families who serve in the US and EU governments from ever visiting Israel, or ever seeking refuge when the new official persecutions begin.

As if this will have any effect. I doubt the “extremist setters” are interested in traveling to Ireland or the EU anyway.

How do you account for the fact that the United Nations Charter follows the format of the Russian (USSR) Constitution of 1936 rather than the format of the (Covenant of the) League of Nations? Would you feel there was any significance in the fact that the general secretary for the organization which drew up the charter was Alger Hiss? …

The Naked Communist, Chapter 8

In its relations with the wider world, the (European) Union shall uphold and promote its values and interests and contribute to the protection of its citizens. It shall contribute to peace, security, the sustainable development of the Earth, solidarity and mutual respect among peoples, free and fair trade, eradication of poverty and the protection of human rights, in particular the rights of the child, as well as to the strict observance and the development of international law, including respect for the principles of the United Nations Charter.

— Treaty of Lisbon
That ought to answer the question as for how long the EU and the UN have been insane. Pretty much for all their existence.

A few weeks or months after President Trump is again in the Oval Office, I hope he does these items. In the dead of night, have the fire alarm started at the United Nations building. After the building is evacuated, change the locks and place a large sign: The new United Nations meeting place is the Gaza Strip.

If you are really interested in talking to one another, instead of just bashing Jews and America, meet there. Otherwise, stay in your own country. We will no longer find your luxurious lifestyle that you yourself cannot possibly afford. No more limousines, nothing. President Trump could even donate a few tents from Walmart for Gaza. Instead of limousines, it will be: BYOC Bring Your Own Camel.

Ireland's love affair with murderous palestinians and Hamas continues.

Why not sanction some “bad guys” from Sudan while you’re at it too?
