EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen wrote on Twitter that she "condemns arbitrary attacks by Hamas against Israel." Josep Borrell, the EU's High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, said Thursday he had "confirmed EU support for Israel's security and condemned Hamas' arbitrary firing of rockets" in a conversation with Israeli Foreign Minister Gabi Ashkenazi.     French President Emmanuel Macron also expressed sympathy with the victims of attacks by Hamas and other terrorist groups in talks with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Macron has said Israel had the right to defend itself.

Let’s see if supposed moderate Biden is in charge or Islamists-racists Omar/Tlaib posing as “progressives”.

This rocket barrage was made possible by Iran and is for the benefit of Iran. Iran supplied the rockets and financing to Hamas. Before the barrage is initiated Iranian operatives place themselves to carefully monitor just how Iron Dome is deployed and how it works. There is little doubt that Iran has strategically placed short range Chinese made stealthy ballistic missiles inSyrian territory they control. These missiles are Iran’s guarentee of “mutually assured destruction” should Israel overtly attack and destroy Iran’s nuclear facilities. There is much more happening here than meets the eye.

Au contraire mon ami.

From Jihad Watch: Biden Sends Pro-Hamas Envoy ‘Inspired by Intifada’ to Mediate Between Israel and Jihad Terrorists. That would by Hady Amr. Xiden hasn't even nominated an ambassador to Israel, but no worries, the US sent a mid-level Lebanese-born terrorist hugger to fix things.

Just a little from Amr:

“I was inspired by the Palestinian intifada,” Hady Amr wrote a year after September 11, discussing his work as the national coordinator of the anti-Israel Middle East Justice Network.

“I have news for every Israeli,” Amr ranted in one column written after Sheikh Salah Shahada, the head of Hamas’ Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, was taken out by an Israeli air strike.

He also threatened Americans that “we too shouldn’t be shocked when our military assistance to Israel and our security council vetoes that keep on protecting Israel come back to haunt us”

These “rocket barrages” occur every 3-4 years. Iran needs to know what updates or new capabilities Iron Dome has developed. A probe is designed more to evaluate an opponents strenghs, resources and capabilities than to inflict damage. Hamas and the Palastenians are the pawns and do the suffering and dying. Iran supplies the rockets, watches and tries to learn. Very much doubt however the Israelis are showing them much.

The oil producing GCC nations do not support the Palestinians.

The Europeans need oil

President Trump was important in bringing about that change
