.....for Jews to crucify a Briton is a welcome opportunity. That is a failing that may end up in WWIII.

this antisemitic twit won't ever be admitted to Israel again. She is the worse there is in Europe. What a shame that such an idiot has any position in the EU!

This is so strange that every comment from Catherine Ashton is misquoted in the press ! Who believes this anymore ? This woman is not fit to lead the EU foreign policy.

Misses Ashton you and your hypocrite friends in Europe are as I said before the best exampele for stupidity and hypocritism. it is phatetic to see the way you stragle to shake your self from the responsibility you have when ever your spit your seek distorted and twisted ideas about Israel. trying to comper the sad event in Toulouse with the events in the Gaza strip. how dare you/ can you stupid cow give us one only one example where an Israeli did murder or slaugther or butcher not by mistake i am refering to some one who did it by wickednes and malice. yes some time children in Gaza are hurt or even get killed. but never in a life time we do it with a cold intention to do so. we are not the one who hide and shoot rockets from school yards. we are not the one who use an ambulance to cary and transfer missiles and rockets.

go back under your rock

Every time she opens her mouth about Israel, it wreaks of incitement vs, Jews everywhere because Jews=Israel. The Brits have had a long record of anti-Israel behavior. They stole the land from the Jews in Palestine which was granted to them by the UN in San Remo in 1922 & gave it to the Arab terrorists to curry favor with Saudia because of their oil.

Such lies ... no one distorted anything, only this low character nobody of a comissioner distrorts the realities! She should've resigned long time ago! She's a shame to the EU Commission!

Grow up Ashton

Voting green this weekend?

cify a Briton" ? British Jesus ?

If it were not for the Israeli government no one would hear us. Nobody in europe understands us or has any time to listen to the huge problems we now face. European politicians will never understand us, our fears and this just proves it.

over the years can her meaning be distorted or misinterpreted? Fool me once shame on you.....

Catherine Ashton's twisted and immoral comparison comment makes her not worthy of representing the European Union.

She is an ugly anti Semite and anti Zionist. Please stop posting her picture. I saw it and lost my lunch. But seriously cathy has helped a lot of people who suffer from constipation. They take one look at her face and it scares the s*** out of them.

What are you trying to insinuate by your reference to WW III? Are saying that something similar to WW II is waiting for us the Jews? How humanitarian and peaceful of you......!!!!!!

typical of both 'progressives' and 'pragmatists'..failure to distinguish between terror ,crime , war and accidents..it's all death to them and nothing is worth fighting for

Did you read the article fool ? According to the article Ashcroft compared the killings in France to the killings in Gaza. But then the UN clarified that Ms. Ashcroft DID NOT say that.. According to the UN one of the media geniuses misrepresented the actual speech by Ashcroft.

So typical of a Briton to revert to a well learned pattern of treating hate crimes against Jews as normal and deserved. Get off your high imperialist perch. You still have not forgiven Jews from kicking your ass out of your colony have you? And, your choice of wording - crucify - is very telling. Have a problem with Jews?

It is a disgrace that it is only Israelis who condemn Ashton, and no one in the EU is doing so. Their failure to do so makes them complicit in her morally repugnant stance. Unfortunately, that is no surprise, given the EU's increased Israel-bashing over the years.

He said all that he could say, and he said what he had to. He also knew he was wrong. If Ashton did indeed say "When we think about what happened today in Toulouse, we remember....and we see what is happening in Gaza", then the meaning is clear and it is not the media that are guilty of distortion, it's the Baroness' pitiable, inflammatory values. She should have gone long ago.

really, we do not need any explanations of your remarks. we know exactly where you stand!

There are a lot of Anti Antisemitism in England since 1300. The WWI and WWII were part of England diplomacy. In 1923 England divided Israel in 2 unequal parts In 1948 again England took Israel and divided in 2 again Since then, England has never been friend with the Jewish people. Finally this lady takes advantage of the opportunity to blame us. So what do you expect from us? A beautiful words for her?

EU

in any other context is truly sad and frighteneing. The barbarism in France is a 'stand alone' horror. Ms. Ashton has much to repent for by politicizing this tragedy.

Assuming she's sincere and not just exercising damage control (a daring assumption): Did she also make it apparent to these Pals she spoke to that she didn't mean to draw a parallel between the horrendous murder in Toulouse, the massacres in Syria, and the self-inflicted casualties in Gaza? I doubt it. Somehow I think these kids returned to Gaza full of misguided self-righteousness and determination to keep up the good work, emboldened by her deliberately chosen vageries. And of course she can always say her words were taken out of context later on. By far the easiest way, if morally completely reprehensible. Go see Sderot and the huge pile of rockets used to ensure lively and spirited nights for the innocent men, women, and not in the least children over there.

Cold bloodied murder of innocent children in civilised France is not the same as killing of children in collateral damage by a dictatorship government in a civil war even when there is a tragic loss of young innocent life. Chasing a young Jewish girl and shooting her in the head has not been seen since Auschwitz. We said Never Again!. Let's mean what we say and not pay lip service letting antisemitism and antizionism be acceptable whether by neo nazis or iranians or other extremists.

Isn't that the basic definition of "racism"? You know, her comments were out of line and made a false comparison. Holding comment on them would be both intellectually dishonest and undemocratic. wouldn't you agree? No one attacked her because she's a Brit but because of her comments. Though, since you missed that obvious fact, I can safely say that you will cook up any excuse in order to crucify a Jew.

Till u were quiet some people thought that u only look stupid (!) While U started to talk - thw majority of the human race is convineced about u'r stupidity !!!

Assuming Catherine Ashton's remarks should be interpreted the way that they have here I find the responses to be equally obscene. We are talking about the lives of children - whoever they are! 'Self-inflicted injuries' in Gaza - by children? Really? If our humanity only extends to Jewish children we are indeed a sad people.

"You stupid, stupid people. Of course I was misquoted, as I always am after making some hatefull, anti Jewish remarks. Then I "appologise and all is hunky dory. So you see, YOU PEOPLE should appologise for blaming me, by making such unfounded remarks after my grossly distorted comments. YOU are guilty....you ALWAYS are"! "By the way...'grossly distorted, doesn't mean not true, I mean, there is of course 'some truth in what I said and what you reported".
