The Israeli foreign ministry on Tuesday summoned the French ambassador to Israel and presented him with a complaint over what it called feud shown by French people and official circles against Israel, recently.

The Hebrew- language Israeli radio said that the Israeli foreign ministry handed over the French ambassador a memorandum of complaint in which it indicated what it called the escalation of anti- Semitic feelings in France especially through demonstrations and marches organized by the French against Israel because of the military acts carried out by the Israeli army in the occupied territories.

The radio added that the memorandum also implies a stand concerning statements recently made by the French foreign minister when he was commenting on the prevailing conditions in the Middle East region.

On the other hand, the Israeli foreign ministry summoned the Belgian ambassador to Israel on Monday and handed him a similar memorandum of complaint.

In its memorandum, the Israeli foreign ministry asked the Belgian authorities to issue a statement condemning the anti- Israeli feelings felt in the Belgians.

Worthy mentioning that the Israeli foreign ministry has prepared a media plan to confront the international criticism raised against Israel because of the brutal aggressions committed by the Israeli occupation army against the Palestinians.

Good post, knighthawk. Interesting that the Israelis have to scold the governments of these countries to get them to issue a statement condemning the anti-Jewish acts in their countries. Poor show by the governments of both countries, if they haven't already made such statements.

Thanks. Over here in Europe, crimes done by them are not seen as crimes:

This had to be an Arab paper.  I checked.  It was.

Okay Palestinians and other Arabs, what did you expect Israel to do when you started bombing their citizens?  Did you expect them to beg your forgiveness and ask what they could do to make you happy?  When their tanks fanally came across your borders, what did you expect, free rides for the neighborhood children.  When they called up an additional 20,000 troops and marched them into your territory, what did you expect Avon sales pitches?  You drove them to develop a response to your actions.  They have developed that response.  They are now implementing that response.

Tanks and troops are now on site.  Instead of you realizing that you're in a no-win situation, even now you seek to commit more violence and avoid any responsibility for your actions.

Well, let me explain something to you.  Tanks and troops don't drop buy for the fun of it.  They are called out as a last resort.  And some of your boys are going to get their asses kicked as a result of this deployment.  Good!

I guess you guys are too busy teaching hatred, gerilla warfare tactics and suicide bombing technics to teach the kids math.  The equasion was 1 +1 = ?  Well if one hell of a bunch of terrorism plus one hell of a bunch of deaths = too much military action for your likeing, too damned bad!
