Israel Self Reliance

EU LEADERS ‘OUTRAGED’ OVER ISRAELI FM LIBERMAN’S STATEMENT THAT THEY WOULD WILLINGLY THROW ISRAEL UNDER THE BUS TO APPEASE THE ARABS……..

 

Truth upsets those being outed.

They are all on the path towards their own enslavement, willingly I might add, so who cares what they think or say? When it’s all said and done, the Israelis, politically speaking,  can only trust in themselves to safeguard their own self interests, that includes its relationship with the US, which as its staunchest ally, would expect and applaud.

The European Union is angered by comments made by Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman and may sanction Israel over them, Channel 2 Newsreported on Wednesday.

According to the report, the EU is considering sanctions such as imposing additional taxes on products manufactured in Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria, as well as having Israeli citizens living beyond the Green Line obtain a visaand stamp their passports before being allowed entry into Europe.

The EU, according to Channel 2, was upset by comments Lieberman made on Tuesday evening during a Hanukkah candle lighting with members of his Yisrael Beytenu party.

In addition to clarifying that Israel does not intend to give any money to the Palestinian Authority for the next four months, until it pays its debts to Israel, Lieberman also slammed the EU for its “Holocaust-like” attitude toward Israel.

“There are a few European leaders who are willing to sacrifice Israel without batting an eyelid,” said Lieberman, referring to the fact that the EU did not condemn recent remarks by Hamas chief Khaled Mashaal, who publicly called for Israel’s destruction during a visit to Gaza, but chose to condemn Israel for announcing plans to build in the area known as E1 which connects Jerusalem and Maaleh Adumim.

“Yesterday’s statement of condemnation by the EU ignored the call by Hamas to destroy Israel,” Lieberman said during Tuesday’s event. “There are ministers in the EU, and I do not want to mention names, for whom the destruction of Israel is probably something obvious.”

He added, “It also symbolizes how much we can rely on those countries that always say they understand Israel’s security needs. In our history we have experienced the same events, because the same people simply ignored. These are the same people in Europe who ignored those reports and knew for certain what was happening with the Jews in the concentration camps.”

The remarks echoed ones Lieberman made on Tuesday morning during an interview on Israeli radio, when he said that Europe has “slapped itself in the face” by ignoring Hamas’ threats as it ignored the Nazi death camps in the Holocaust.

“Once again, Europe has ignored calls for Israel’s destruction,” Lieberman said, adding, “We’ve already seen this at the end of the 1930s and at the beginning of the 1940s when Europe knew what was happening in the concentration camps and didn’t act.”

    I suspect their egos are hurting from being publicly dressed down. Did you see the article where Liberman said Israel would take back all of Gaza if anymore rockets were fired on Israel? AWESOME! I adore Avi Lieberman.

  2. The EU is full of Leftists, and they would like nothing better then Israel is destroyed. As a first step, trade sanctions is what they favour. However, they will have to get it past Germany- and that is the problem. No one in the EU in his/her right mind, is going to offend Germany.
