ah, the predictable position of the EU ... I would have actually been shocked if they went the other way ...

[Support Free Republic]

A Recall AND a Fundraiser? I'm toast.

Let's get this over with FAST. Please contribute!

What's the EU?

[USNA74]

Can anyone tell me when was the last time the EU condemned a homicide bombing attack?

[Redcoat LI]

F.U.E.U.
The Isrealis should strap a 500lb bomb to Arafats back and drop it on Brussels.

[Ramius]

Gosh. Surprise surprise.

[Peach]

The left never met a dictator or a terrorist they didn't like.

Good question. Sadly they still think that the Palisites are some kind of "freedom fighter". [sigh] They wouldn't know a freedom fighter if one of them walked into the room and blew up.

"Even if Israel has a right to defend itself from terrorism, it has to be done in the context and international rules and laws."

I believe that the rules of war apply here, not the so-called "international rules and laws".

The last time France and Germany got together, it wasn't good for the Jews, either:

Chirac and Schroeder simply recognize their friends who they think can finish the job.

EU will be the next world war.

GROSS WARNING

Here, dumbo Solana (EU) leads a queue
of men to serially lick terrorist-sputum
directly from the lips and philtrum of Arafat-the-Egyptian-coward, documented serial murderer of Americans and children.
The EU has a Wyndego tradition of thirsting for the excreta of murderers.

The French just dont understand this whole fighting for your existance deal, to them its just a question of when to surrender.

"If the EU is really the EU, they should only have one vote at the UN."

Good point. That would be the same as giving all the US states a vote in the UN, huh?

[Arpege92]

Will someone notify me as soon as Isreal decides to care what the EU says and feels?

[RWR8189]

I agree, why should European countries have 3/5 permanent seats at the SC?

Wheres all that multicultural diversity I hear so much about?

"Even if Israel has a right to defend itself from terrorism, ["If?!] it has to be done in the context and international rules and laws."

Yes, but does this mean that the terrorists also have to obey "the context and international rules and laws"? No, only Israel ever gets docked, never Arafat, and the other sacred U.N. swine financing Hamas and the other terrorist groups intended to drive Israel "into the sea".

The context is that Israel should obey the international rules against terrorists, to whom no rules apply. "Shut up and take it" is the U.N. answer, basically. And if they could be honest they would just say ,"Don't you cross that border again, even though we all know they are training prospective Israeli murderers."

It's straight out of Kafka. Would any other modern country with a large miltary force put up with this constant aggression and not fight back? (Okay, we all know about France.)

The deck's stacked against Israel in the U.N., and everyone knows it. So, let Israel be Israel.

That is pretty bad, and with the U.S., it's four permanent majority Caucasian seats and one Asian seat. But the multiculturalism really kicks in on the U.N. committee level. The first month of this year was a vintage year for them: click.

On January 20, Libya was appointed to the rotating chairmanship of the UN Human Rights Commission. At the same time, Iraq is scheduled to chair the UN Conference on Disarmament later this year in Geneva.

Other than demanding popcorn, you can't ask for more UN entertainment than having Libya chairing the Human Rights Commission and Iraq being appointed to chair the UN Conference on Disarmament at the same time, January, 2003.
