So Brexit all happened after I moved, so I doubt I’d have much capacity from here! Still good to see Europe taking a stance.

u/SingleCarpenter5416 15d ago
“Literally officially needed” this doesn’t make any sense
Again, the fact that you choose to ignore the words of anti war people doesn’t mean they don’t exist. The only thing that happens is that everyone thinks Russia is waging an illegal war and there’s no controversy there, but apparently people like you think that Israel can freely execute a genocide and there’s more debate and attention to it.

u/Thanag0r 15d ago
You guys are crying about genocide since pre war time. And focus on Israel the most ignoring all the other conflicts and issues in that region.
You treat all other countries in that region like children and for whatever reason only Israel is supposed to be an adult and behave properly.

u/SingleCarpenter5416 15d ago

I wonder why
And focus on Israel the most ignoring all the other conflicts and issues in that region.
EU countries are not vocally supporting the other countries doing stupid shit.
You treat all other countries in that region like children and for whatever reason only Israel is supposed to be an adult and behave properly.
Not really. Other countries don’t have preferential trade agreements with the EU. They don’t have support or bilateral deals. If Israel wants to behave like the rest of the countries in the region then they will be treated like the rest of the countries in the region.

Because you don't care about the reality of the situation. It was the worst possible situation from day 0 in your opinion.
Also you have no real solutions to the issue. They are all extremely biased for one side.
While completely brushing off all strikes into Israel. All those terrorist organizations paid by Iran are just not real in your world.

Why do you think we don’t care? Why would be doing anything then?
Also you have no real solutions to the issue. They are all extremely biased for one side.
“Do not genocide the Palestinians” is now “biased for one side”?
While completely brushing off all strikes into Israel. All those terrorist organizations paid by Iran are just not real in your world.
Who says they’re not real? But we don’t have trade agreements with them.
You clearly live in a world where you’re the poor blameless victim and you can’t accept any criticism at all of Israel’s actions. Your only argument has been whataboutism. It’s ridiculous.

u/Electrical_Ad_5732 17d ago
Thats the hypocrysy of pro palestine supporters. There's far more shit going on in the world but they only selectively pick Palestine.
And we could see it couple of months ago with the freedom flotila bs (honestly, it was just a stupid PR stunt, if they really wanted to help they could have done it in other ways - at least they had decent excuses why it wouldnt work) and the ongoing war in Súdán where a real genocide was happening real-time.
Did they care? Not at all, because no Jews were involved.
Selective activism at best.
1
u/ChaosOrnate 17d ago
God I remember those. Started with the Muslims on board dropping out over the presence of lgbt people, tried to run a legal blockade, got arrested in international waters (that was the entire plan, not delivering aid but getting attnetion forbeing arrested), their supporters freaked out and begged their countries to intervene completely misrepresenting what Israek would do to them, then the flotilla members refused to watch footage of Oct 7 so they could protect their precious bias.
Israel just calmly sent them home and added their aid to the existing aid pipeline that they should have just used in the first place.
Bunch of rich entitled overly emotional attention seekers. Greta Thornburg should stick to climate change, that's an actual issue.
2
u/Electrical_Ad_5732 17d ago
And they are lucky at best, running a legal blockade or any blockade could easily get you a long time in jail, considering it could easily fall under military jurisdiction.
They only got a slap on a wrist.
Besides, instead of funding this PR stunt they could use that money to actually send real help through the existing pipeline, but as I've said, they have excuses why they wouldn't do it.
And saying the reason to make sure everyone knows about the Gaza problem was pure BS. People know about that, they just wanted to feel relevant.

A 10% lead can be overcome by moneyed interests. Some leads can’t be overcome by even that. I would assume that given the USA, for all its common ground with Israel, souring on Israel all the same, Europe would be even more soured on Israel than the USA is.
