The Czechs have shown more sympathy for the Israeli situation than their EU counterparts. The Czechs remember the lead up to WWII better than the French or the rest of Europe.

In this instance “leadership vacuum” means lack of any major unified effort to engage in Israeli arm-twisting.
Just fine by me.

"Meanwhile, the Czechs, leading the official EU diplomatic visit which was due to start in Cairo last night, caused confusion by calling the Israeli move defensive, then insisting later that this was a misunderstanding and joining the general call for a ceasefire." Typical European dhimmitude. Surrender now, ask questions later. Once it's too late to avoid servitude and tyranny that is. What a bunch of pantywaists. Just make the European Union flag a solid white field and have done with it.
"... then insisting later that this was a misunderstanding and joining the general call for a ceasefire."
Aah yes, the Hitler strategy. It worked so well the frist time around...

Anyone who puts faith in a region that started 2 world wars to have the ability to mediate anything beyond “do you want fries with that” is delusional. Elmer Fudd has a better chance of catching Bugs Bunny than those cheese-eating surrender monkeys have of bringing peace to the Middle East.

"President Sarkozy of France, who has led calls for a ceasefire to allow humanitarian aid into Gaza, prepared to travel to Jerusalem today at the start of a four-day freelance mission." Yes, and if we screw this up totally like the last time around playing footsie with fascists, we can always count on those stupid provincial Americans to come and save our sorry asses.
"Actually, I was hoping for better from Sarkozy."
