1. ANOTHER EU GABFEST...
stude ham   (01.06.11)
until the EU can neutralize the hamas and hezbollah and persian war machines the middle east will remain a smoldering powder keg.
2. Let us not loose sight of the fact that Abbas agreed with...
Jehudah Ben-Israel ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (01.06.11)
...the US and Israel to conduct direct negotiations without preconditions. Those negotiations to include all "core issues", including the status of Jewish settlements. Yet, only two sessions after the direct talks commenced, the PA headed by Abbas pulled out, demanding preconditions, contrary to his agreement with the US and Israel. I believe it was Mr. Abba Eban who observed: "The Arabs have never missed an opportunity to miss an opportunity" for peace. This was one such case in point!!
3. Instead, the EU should demand, with the US and
Petra ,   EU on the road   (01.06.11)
the UN, of the Palestinians to accept Israel's legitimacy as the nation-state of the Jewish people since this it is the PA's refusal to do so that actually is in the way of peace.
4. Let me write a little about Lady Ashton
Alan ,   SA   (01.06.11)
I have read a few things lately. She is not well thought of in EU bureaucratic structure . She was a UK Labour Party elevation to the Peerage.And appointed to Europe by them . She has a poor record of attendance in the Commission's Meetings I think about 40 %. She doesnt like too much travel. She insists on being home in UK every weekend. There is much talk of her being moved on to other pastures. So dont get too attached to her .
5. # 4
Jules   (01.07.11)
Alan, she was appointed to that job with one and only purpose: to punch, kick and humiliate Israel. For her (ans also Kouchner's and Moratines') misfortune, Lieberman is the FM. Two of them already lost their jobs after meeting Lieberman, so she is on the way out too.
6. Israel just say "NO" to Two State Final Solution.
Chaim ,   Israel   (01.07.11)
Israel voters soundly rejected the monstrous Two State Final Solution by decimating Labor and Meretz, it's main Knesset champions. Israeli voters rejection of this abomination is also the reason the right gets stronger with every election. Israel's P.M. and leaders have the duty of taking Israel's decision to the quarted and everyone else. This is our land. We won't have our sole tiny Homeland divided and rendered defenseless. Israel just say "NO" to the monstrous Two State Final Solution.
7. Catherine, please go home.
Boaz ,   Israel   (01.07.11)
You are needed there. Europe needs you to solve their enormous Euro currency problems. Ireland needs you to save the country from expected misery. We can well do without you as we know your pro Palestinian/Hamas support. A Casa! A casa!
8. How much does she get paid to bash Israel ?
bruno ,   Portugal   (01.07.11)
Do you know how much this baroness makes per month ? Nearly 30.000 eur ! To do what ? To bash Israel in anyway she can ? She's one of those you cannot reason with !
9. Advice to Ashton & the EU
(01.07.11)
Do not be biased against Israel,because it will not help the situation,and Israel will not listen to you. The only way things to improve is to be FAIR JUDGE,without any personal or Government interest.
