Staggering European Hypocrisy Over What Is A Terrorist

Right now is a time when terror is on the rise throughout the world.  It is done by terrorists.  Terrorists are lining up and complying with ISIS as they did in France.  Yet The EU, made up of 28 countries,  has come up with brilliant idea of taking Hamas terrorists off the terrorist list.  Can you beat that?

Hamas has committed countless war crimes and countless terror acts.  By wanting to do this, just bringing the idea up for vote, is sending the wrong message to the terrorists as a goal for them to get without stopping their terror acts.

Their charter calls for the destruction of Israel and the slaughter of Jews.  They've been doing things to bring this about like hitting Israel since 2001 with thousands with rockets, mortars and missiles.  

The EU court is led by a young Italian woman who just started her office on November 1,2014.  She is Federica Mogherini, who will be 42 years old this year. "Mogherini attended the Sapienza University of Rome where she studied Political Science graduating with a Diploma in Political Philosophy with a thesis entitled "Relationship between religion and politics in Islam", which she wrote whilst on the Erasmus programme at Aix-en-Provence, France.

"Criticism of Mogherini ranges from claims of her being pro-Russian and too close to the Kremlin, to not taking the threat of Russia seriously during the 2014 Russian military intervention in Ukraine. The President of Lithuania has publicly called her pro-Kremlin. Her first nomination as EU foreign policy chief was blocked by Eastern European EU member states On the other hand, some deemed Mogherini's approach to Russia as no different than the one taken by Germany or France.  That's not saying much.  None are favoring Israel.  

An EU court ruled last month that Hamas should be removed from the terrorist list, saying the decision to include it was based on media reports, not considered analysis.  It is included or should be because by every type of measurement, they are still terrorists.  They've been practicing terrorism on Israel since its inception in 1948.  How long does it take to analyze terror by the EU?  

Terrorists coming up to kidnap children or soldiers in a community is terrorism.

"In July 2009, EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana called for the United Nations to recognise the Palestinian state by a set deadline even if a settlement had not been reached: "The mediator has to set the timetable. If the parties are not able to stick to it, then a solution backed by the international community should ... be put on the table. After a fixed deadline, a UN Security Council resolution ... would accept the Palestinian state as a full member of the UN, and set a calendar for implementation."  Why was the EU pushing this for?  
                                                                                 

In addition, though she has since removed pictures of her 2002 visit with Yasser Arafat from her blog, there remains speculation that Mogherini's sympathies may not be entirely neutral, and possibly anti the state of Israel. The pictures of the pair together remain widely available.

The USA is now fighting in Operation Inherent Resolve with 40 nations who have joined them. As of January 2nd, the total cost of operations related to ISIS terrorists, since they started on August 8, 2014, which is a month after Israel's Operation Defensive Edge, is $1.2 billion and the average daily cost is $8.2 million.  

Though France is overtly helping the USA,  Australia, Great Britain, Germany, Netherlands, Canada are also helping out as well as Turkey, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia in some ways.  Qatar is helping with humanitarian aid.  Iran, of course, is against it. "Iran: Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei said Monday on Twitter that he has rejected the possibility of cooperating with the United States "because (the) US has corrupted its hands in this issue." Khamenei accused the United States of planning to use military action against ISIS to "dominate the region."

I think Obama has his hands full the next 2 years in trying to deal with the 50 states of the USA let alone to be involved with Iran.  That's the last thing the USA would do.  

                                                                        

Everyone knows that Hamas are terrorists.  Media reports and analysis both show this.  The PLO were major player terrorists and Fatah and Hamas came out of it.  Terrorism, according to to Webster's 7th New Collegiate Dictionary, is  using terror as a means of coercion.  To fill with terror or anxiety, to scare, to coerce by threat or violence.  Every time a rocket, mortar or missile is shot into Israel and civilians hear the warning, they  only have 15 seconds to get to a bomb shelter.  Before Operation Defensive edge, Hamas was shooting rockets they got  from Iran that were long distance, reaching Tel Aviv and Jerusalem as well as the shorter distance pummelling Sderot and Ashkelon.
