solomon ,   bklyn   (09.03.13)
EU has never done Israel’s ‘bidding’ and never intends to. Is it Israel’s ‘bidding’ that the EU will not trade with communities over the green line? etc. As usual, you pose a question that has nothing to do with reality, hoping people will think it does.

Non Jewish Immigrant ,   Haifa   (09.03.13)
No I don't know anyone like that. If you thought I am begging for Israeli citizenship then you're wrong. No thank you !
64. It's a war. Propaganda is part of the war.
JMK ,   NYC   (09.03.13)
Chem weapons not likely, WMDs there were none, 9/11 planes none, but all are the tools of war and are specifically tools of propaganda.

precisely. yes, france is pushing....BUT NOT WILLING TO COMMITT TROOPS FOR THIS OPERATION. THE FRENCH FROGS WERE ALWAYS COWARDS. THEY LET THE USA SINCE WW2 DO THE DIRTY BUSINESS FOR THEM.

Actually Churchill was an enthusiastic proponent of using chemical weapons, as he felt they actually reduced the number of casualties in the long run
67. #50 Why is it not an issue for Israel?
Ivor Evenbiggergun   (09.03.13)
Israel has signed the convention banning the use of chemical weapons hasn't it? Oh

If you embark on a rant like that, the least you can do is try not to come across as a raving lunatic, and a poorly informed one at that. The French are perfectly willing to commit troops, they just do not want to do go at it alone, but within the framework of a coalition, which is still the preffered modus operandi nowadays. The US would prefer that as well.
69. #1, You don‘t know what you are talking about.
Rich ,   Toronto, Canada   (09.03.13)
And, of course, YNET would give you the thumbs up for your ignorant comments. Both World Wars were financed by the US Federal Reserve, a private central bank, and Wall Street. The Europeans had no money for World Wars. The stupid Americans footed the bill in taxes, and the criminal bankers in the Fed cashed in big time. These bankers financed the Nazis which enabled them to drive out Jews from Europe and send them to Palestine. As crazy as it might sound, were it not for the Germans & the Federal Reserve which gave them the money, there would be no Israel today.

Israel has signed banning chemical weapons, but it has not been ratified.
72. #69. So Europeans had nothing to do with the World Wars.
Chaim ,   Israel   (09.04.13)
#Rich. Your comments are normally bizarre but this is wacko even for you. According to your "logic", Europeans had little or nothing to do with the World Wars. The Wars were caused by those nasty American bankers and Wall Street. Hitler was merely one of their puppets! Germany had no money for war, even though it had the second biggest economy in the world at that time.
73. To No. 46. If you think Israel is at the merci of the Europe
Ari ,   Jerusalem   (09.04.13)
.Europe ? You are wrong. We have more potential with the Far East ad even with Russia. Wecan offer technology and a lot more. If Israel were decide to cuts ties with Europe, nothing will happen. The Grants Europe gives to Israel, comes to the amount of 800.million Euro. China and India have more potential than that. We could havve grown much more with China if it wasn't because of the black mail US has exercised in Israel. Europe heas persecuted Jews for 2000 years, we have to thank them? Every time Europe uses a computer they must knoe that 99% of those processors were done in Israel. And that iss only one of many things theta Europe receives from Israel
74. Europeans need to do some soul searching
Adam ,   Canada   (09.05.13)
Why aren't they support Israel, the only democracy and country that shares Western values like freedom of speech in the region?
75. #67 ivor - once again
solomon ,   bklyn   (09.05.13)
a question that has nothing to do with reality. The question is why does the world let Syria kill its own civilians with chemical weapons. But you always lose sight of the important points, don't you?
76. For the author
Jon ,   Baltimore US   (09.05.13)
The EU and rest of the world have tried to start talks about WMD disarmament in the Middle East but has always been blocked by Israel who refuses to even acknowledge their existence, except those possessed or sought by others.
77. #76 jon - The arabs
solomon ,   bklyn   (09.05.13)
and now Iran have threatened Israel with annihilation. One reason they hesitate is Israel's nuclear weapons, and the EU "and the rest of the world" ("and the rest of the world" is a euphemism for wishful thinking) tries to help the arabs get rid of this impediment to their destructive desires. Pity that you ignore reality, facts, that are right in front of you. Your post makes the article all the more true.
78. Europe Has Lost Her Way
ltrail ,   United States   (09.07.13)
Shimon Shiffer is certainly correct in exposing the EU's hypocrisy. I have seen from the likes of Baroness Ashton of Upholland, and others like her, a certain bias against the State of Israel and the Jews. Subsequently, I have placed such people as these, categorically in my mind, as anti-Jew. They are what they are. My mind filters out anything and all things that they do, whether they are good or bad for the world.
