simplistic cartoon, don't see iits joke anywhere, not a deep opinion. This is what you call Thinktanking?
also a insulting item for all the europeans that we are fighting for the end of occupation on all Palestine
If you happen to be following the news, the EU just voted the motion to give special status to Israel within the EU. I would say it is realistic, actually.
Another Mary agrees with her namesake completely. The EU is totally anti-democratic.
Look at the fact the commission is unelected. Everything is fixed up behind the scenes in a
neo-liberal conspiracy. The Palestinian existence is irrelevant to them. Serving EU/US/Israeli hegemony in the hydrocarbon rich ME and Caspian Basin is one priority along with population dominance.
The MEPs had voted to postpone the question of Israel having closer ties to the EU until next month. Along come the 27 Foreign Ministers and it is all a done deal. The whole thing is shameful.
It is very obvious , does not need comment….Israel and Zionisim are in charge, otherwise EU would be more free with their dealings the Palestinian issue….The Star of David is clearly on TOP….
Well I agree with everything said except comment/troll No.1. I couldn't believe it last night, so what's the point of having MEP's then? Within a week, Israel gets:
NATO, Israel boost anti-terror cooperation: official
