Does the EU ever get it right?

The European Union has expressed its "grave concern" at Israel's continuing attacks on the Gaza Strip that have killed close to 300 Palestinians and injured around 900, and called the airstrikes "unacceptable" while calling on both sides to halt military actions.

Certainly, the deaths of so many people are profoundly tragic.
But just how many daily rocket attacks must Israel endure before it is permitted to respond by the EU?
Imagine if Ireland had launched over 400 attacks on west coast towns this year - bombarding them with rockets. Would we not be driven to respond?
And Irish arguments that Britain caused the potato famine in the 1840s would not really be good enough reason for them to assault us, in my view!
Never forget. Most Palestinians are committed to the absolute removal of the Jewish State; they will not negotiate in a straight manner and surrounding nations have treacherously invaded Israel on FOUR occasions since 1948.

The Israelis are reactive and if left alone do not attack Palestinians.

That Israel deals less than evenhandedly with the Palestinians is quite true and not altogether unsurprising under the circumstances.

The new, leftwing, anti-semitism is much evidenced amongst the liberal politicians of the world.
