Foreign Minister Igor Ivanov said Israel's announced intention to isolate Arafat "is not the way that could help find a political solution to the current situation", Interfax reported. Hey Igor, does the word "Chechnya" ring a bell? Pot, meet kettle. Either practice what you preach or shut the hell up.
French Foreign Minister Hubert Vedrine criticised Israel's "attempt to stifle Arafat".
Hubert, you will find American's have a long memory. We will remember your country's actions against us and our allies. We will remember you were "against us" in the war on terror, and that you refused to provide any information about the hijacker we caught and put on trial. Now why don't you just sit down, shut up, and go find someone to surrender to. You didn't seem to mind when tens of thousands of allied soldiers were dying on your soil, fighting for YOUR freedom.
EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana spoke by telephone to Arafat and Israeli Foreign Minister Shimon Peres to press for a ceasefire and urge both sides to seize the opportunity offered by an Arab summit's endorsement of Saudi peace proposals.
That's awfully generous of you Javier. A great peace plan just as long as someone else has to cough up the land to placate the Palestinian terrorists. Odd, we don't see you offering them up land for a "homeland". Especially given the track record of those Arab States at this summit of breaking their promises in the past. The same summit that recognized Hamas as a legitimate organization, even after it claimed credit for the Passover bombing. Javier, sit down, shut up, and find a nice history book of the 1930's about Europe and read up on what appeasing your enemy gets you.
"Arafat is our interlocutor, as EU leaders said at the Barcelona summit (on March 16). He remains our interlocutor and the legitimate authority," Solana's spokeswoman Cristina Gallach told Reuters.
Cristina, would this be the same EU who refuses to recognize known terrorist organizations within it's member states own borders, as identified by the US? The same EU who refuses to freeze the financial assets of these terrorist organizations, claiming they're not? The organizations who have claimed credit for assassinations and bombings of other nations representatives? The same EU who refused to participate in an anti-drug meeting (not a single EU nation showed) in an effort to curb the drug traffic in Europe that is being used to finance terrorist groups? Cristina, sit down, shut up, and contimplate the existence of the EU if the US and UK had taken the same stance with Hilter that you are proposing today.
I understand how the Israelis might feel faced with this terrifying pressure of attacks...but I don't think that massive repression and the attempt to stifle Arafat...can lead to a solution
As opposed to what? Surrendering to your enemy in record time? Letting other nations send their husbands and boys to die on your soil to fight for your freedom, because you were too spineless to do it yourself? Hey frenchy, sit down, shut up, and start drawing up plans to return the brave US soldiers buried on french soil back to the US. Your country is a disgrace to which they died for.
We strongly call on both the Israelis and Palestinians to exercise restraint to the greatest extent possible, immediately cease all violent activities and avoid heading towards total conflict," the ministry said in a statement.
This coming from a country with no freedom of speech, no freedom of religion, no freedom of the press, no freedom of expression, and with forced abortions upon women who have more then the amount dictated by the state. The world remembers watching you send your tanks and soldiers into Tiananmen square, killing the students, while denying it. Pot meet Kettle. Sit down, shut up, and pray Bush doesn't have big enough brass ones to pull your Most Favored Nation status the criminal in office before him granted you.
We call on both sides to take a rational path. Particularly Israel, in order to display rational, forward-looking and constructive stances, needs to review many concepts and views it holds," Turkish state minister and government spokesman, Sukru Sina Gurel was quoted as saying by state news agency Anatolian
Especially Israel? Sukru, remember that the next time you complain about the PKK and the EU's similar response to your complaints. Now sit down, shut up, and stop being a hypocrate, or expect your own argument to become worthless.
