1. VERY NICE MK TZIPI HOTOVELY !!!
FO ,   Belgium   (09.11.15)
You said: "Israel will not allow any body to discriminate between products which are produced by Israeli citizens within Israel's territory." So you consider the so called "West Bank" as Israeli territory? I agree with you! But could you elaborate? Or should I help you? Yes? Well Mrs. Hotovely, ever heard about a certain "Article 80 of the United Nations Charter"? An Article introduced in the UN Charter by Benzion Netanyahu, yes indeed, Bibi's late father, and some other people, an Article that could render void ALL UNGA and UNSC proposals and resolutions voted against the state of Israel? So, Mrs. Hotovely, if you aren't aware of Article 80's existence, inform yourself in extrem urgency, and if you are aware, why don't you claim it loudly? Or should one suppose that the PM imposed a veto, for some obscure reason, on his own father's brilliant Article 80 initiative?
2. Just like Shimon Perski, Europeans are too committed to the
(09.11.15)
Big "Balestinian" Lie to let go at this point. They must be seen as not having lost their moral high ground. In any case: they are scoring points with their future rulers.
3. This is very important
Yosef ,   Florida   (09.11.15)
For them is important not to consume West bank products made by Jews while swallowing ISIS oil. Very ethical.
4. Europe is being Europe again
Chaim ,   Israel   (09.11.15)
The nature of Europe is unchanged over the centuries. It would be naïve to hope that Europe will stop baiting Jews and kneeling at the feet of tyrants. That is its nature. Europe is being Europe again. Once again, Europe is sinking and, once again, it is trying to drag Jews down with it. This time, Europe is going down on its own.
5. Enough !
Gabe ,   Canada   (09.11.15)
Israel must take those countries that signed the document to Court for unfair trade practices and sue the hell out of them for damages.
6. HOW IT will be
PARTNER PC ,   TOLD YOU SO STUPID   (09.11.15)
IT IS TIME TO STOP BEING NICE TO THE ANTISEMITES ISRAEL HAS BA LARGE MIDDLE CLASS MOST OF THESE OTHER ISLAMIC COUNTRIES DONT I SAY LET THE FOOLS SELLTHEIR PRODUCTS TO THE NATIONS THAT DONT HAVE A MIDDLE CLASS WHICH THEY CANT LET THEM ABSORB ALL THE REFUGEES AND PAY FOR THEIR UPKEEP AND LET THEM BE UNEMPLOYED THE CHINESE AND THE INDIANS ARE MUCH MORE FRENDLY AND DESERVING OF OUR BUSINESS LIKE ALWAYS SAY LET THEM GET TWO SLICES OF BREAD AND MAYONISE AND MAKE A SANDWHICH OF THEIR NEXPORTS TO ISRAEL
7. Notice BDS & the millions of homeless Muslims pouting into
BUILD BABY BUILD !!!   (09.11.15)
Europe at the same time? I see this as G-ds pay back to the anti semitic Europeans and the anti semitic Muslims.... Hope they enjoy one another and let's just see who comes out on top. Most European nations abhor the Muslims, violent, ignorant and anti social. This should be fun to watch European cowboys vs. the Muslim Indians... ( I wonder how ling it is before the Muslims claim that Europe belongs to them?) KEEP BUILDING JEWISH ISRAEL !!!!
8. LOL It's fine
BUILD BABY BUILD !!!   (09.11.15)
Israel gets labels and Europe gets Muslims.... LOL Europe has it far worse than does Israel. Wait for a while and see how this anti semitic pairing pays off or, who beheads whom first or last. LOVE BUILDING ANCIENT JEWISH ISRAEL !!! It's a blessing.
9. I am hoping for a revenge on Europe in the future
k ,   US   (09.11.15)
it is my real goal and hope in this life
10. Europe will never stop obsessing with eliminating the Jews
C   (09.11.15)
jew hatred in europe dates back seventeen centuries. this hatred of the jews stems from the teachings of the christian churches that jews committed deicide. the christian churches could never forgive that christianity is derived from judaism nor that many jews refused to convert. the christian churches were therefore left with a constant reminder that their claim of christian supremacy is belied by the survival of the jews, even if they were unarmed, stateless and dispersed. this original sin of hatred for the jews has infected even secular and atheist europeans. jews have been relentlessly persecuted, and now that they have a state, their state is persecuted and discriminated against. in violation of the un charter, the proposed measures by the europeans, violate the principle of sovereign equality. the europeans will see their punishmen come to fruition with the muslim invasion of europe by mostly young able bodied muslims.
11. Scapegoat for Europe's problems
UR   (09.11.15)
When that insufferable woman was mumbling and fumbling about the lack of response to the refugee/migrant crisis facing Europe, I thought would that she'd spent the smallest fraction of the time she'd wasted on this Israel-bashing exercise, instead, on the totally predictable disaster now, extremely belatedly, commanding the attention of our MSM. Not in my wildest dreams did I think that right now she'd have the gall to draw attention to this glaring misappropriation of deliberative time and resource given other much more pressing issues which should have called the attention of the EU. I'm forever forgetting how awful the times we live in. Of course she'd chose right now - what better decoy to cover up for gross dereliction of duty? Oh, of course, lets focus on some Jews to single out for demonization.
12. Thank you, EU
A ,   Belgium   (09.11.15)
Labeling products from Judea and Samaria will make it easier for me to recognize and buy these products.
13. The EU is a sinking ship
Rick ,   Houston, Texas USA   (09.11.15)
The Muslim invasion of the EU will seal its doom.
14. Product labeling
Don Powers ,   Boerne, Tx-USA   (09.11.15)
I know the intent of the countries and peoples who want to do this. I am a Christian and supporter of Israel. I know what the Bible says about cursing/supporting Israel. I am tired of buying China and Mexican junk. I would gladly by Israel's products if knew what they were. I know they would be the highest quality products on the shelves.
15. Someday I'm going to buy a parrot and name it
A ,   Belgium   (09.11.15)
Harold Neale, as both are expert at mimicking others without having the slightest idea of what they are talking about, although I think the parrot is a bit higher up the evolutionary ladder in the intelligence department.
16. The root of the problem is.......
tiki ,   belgium   (09.11.15)
That Europe is driven by it's centuries long Jew obsession/hate! Otherwise there is no logical explanation of why they voted as they did at *this time when millions of hungry fugitives roam the world, *hundreds of innocent people are killed per day, * the Middle East is burning, *International terror industry is taking over and changing the world, * Iran helping Syria with boots on the ground (making more fugitives), *Saudi planes throwing bombs on refugee camps (killing more innocent civilians), etc.etc.etc. So, there is only one logical explanation why they voted at this time as they did against the one Jewish country with "disputed" borders......guess what it is! Europe's 'civilized' veneer has come of and what has been exposed is the same racist & anti Semitic continent it has always been!
17. labeling products
Bobbe ,   Jerusalem   (09.11.15)
Miss Mogherini your hate for the Jews go's far, but you just are taking away a lot of job's from the "palestinians" Are you happy now?
