British Foreign Secretary Hague said yesterday:
-
I don’t think there is enthusiasm around the European Union … about economic sanctions in Europe on Israel. I don’t believe there would be anywhere near a consensus nor is that our approach. We continue to try to bring both sides back to negotiations,”
“Nevertheless, if there is no reversal of the decision that has been announced, we will want to consider what further steps European countries should take,” he said.
France on Monday also dismissed the prospect of European sanctions on Israel.
Steinitz said of relations with Europe and the U.S.: “I’m sure the excellent economic cooperation between Israel and Europe, and Israel and the U.S., won’t be harmed” by the settlement flap.
So much for all you Cassandras and worry warts.
Since so many countries are mounting a diplomatic assault on Israel by calling her ambassadors on the carpet, Israel must hold firm as she is doing. She will win this battle and thus blunt any future assaults.

Never forget for a minute that Tavalu voted yes.

Just goes to prove that in the UN General Assembly every vote is equal to any other. Thus Palua’s vote was equal to Canada. Besides you, who gives a shit?
Palua. Is that near Brooklyn?
Congratulations to the nation of Palua for its courageous vote against Palestinian statehood. Yea Palua
@ Joe Hamilton:
If Israel has a good product made nowhere else, she ought to stick it to the EU and refuse to sell it to them. Plenty of markets for their stuff in Asia and Latin America.
Its just like Turkey. They mouth off a lot but Israeli trade with Turkey has never been higher.
Europe exiled its Jews but warmly welcomed its Muslims. Good — enjoy them!
The Euro-Nazis would not hesitate for a second to impose sanctions on Israel if they weren’t interested in obtaining and/or collaborating with “Start Up Nation” in various high tech areas. A group of Israeli executives (“occupiers” of others’ lands ,“thieves who have stolen Palestine from the angelic ‘Palestinians’) and others involved in Israeli high tech were recently in London at the invitation of the Brits. Euro-Nazis have noticed Israeli branches of Microsoft, Intel, and other high tech US Corporations have created many of the top innovations in computer science and made billions for these US companies. They certainly must have noticed the world’s most successful investor Warren Buffet chose Israel to make his first and only non US investment. In weaponry, as I type this, France and the UK who indignantly recalled their ambassadors because the “evil occupiers” plan to build homes for Jews in the Jewish National Homeland, are collaborating with Israeli Companies in joint ventures to produce Israeli UAVs. Even Russia before purchasing UAVs from Israel, admitted Israel is the world leader in producing the highest quality UAVs at a reasonable price. Israel’s ability to produce some of the best weaponry in the world is not limited to UAVs. The French abandoned their effort to develop a high quality anti-tank missile and chose the Israeli developed Spike anti-tank missile over the American made Javelin. The Euro-Nazis certainly are aware NASDAQ which lists only stocks from high tech companies, lists more Israeli companies, than British, French, and German high tech companies combined. I posted in past, if Israel produces a top quality product or service other nations cannot get elsewhere , the vicious hostility Israel and Jews have faced will decrease or disappear. Of course, the UK and France don’t want to play with fire by imposing sanctions on Israel because they will suffer as much or more than Israel.
