European Anti-Semitism: Some Things Never Change

by Jim Kouri, CPP A leaked secret report advises European government officials that they should "consider direct intervention in an attempt to curb the systematic measures being undertaken by Israel to increase its control and population in the historically -- and legally -- Arab eastern sector of Jerusalem The classified report warns that the chances of a two-state solution are being eroded by Israel's "deliberate policy" -- in breach of international of law -- of "completing the annexation of East Jerusalem". However, European foreign ministers decided against releasing the report -- which also warns that rapid expansion of Jewish settlements in and around East Jerusalem, along with use of the separation barrier to isolate East Jerusalem from the West Bank, "risk radicalizing the relatively quiescent Palestinian population of East Jerusalem." They risk radicalizing the Palestinian population? Is there anything more radical than suicide bombers? No where in the report is there mention of terrorist attacks by groups such as Hamas and Hizbullah. In fact, the report claims East Jerusalem belongs to the Palestinians and sees it as the eventual capital of the a new Palestinian state. The EU report also distorts the history of Jewish control of East Jerusalem. The report writers claim that the Israelis "seized" it during the Six Days War of 1967, without mentioning that the war was intiated by Arab nations and Israel was merely defending itself from multiple attacking armies. They commandeered the territory in order to create a security buffer zone. The report's recommendations includes meeting with the elected-leaders of the Palestinians, such as President Mahmoud Abbas, to show support for their endeavors to create their own independent nation. The classified report, leaked to a British news organization, says: "Israel's activities in Jerusalem are in violation of both its Roadmap obligations and international law. We and others in the international community have made our concerns clear on numerous occasions with varying effect. Palestinians are, without exception, deeply alarmed about East Jerusalem. They fear that Israel will 'get away with it' under cover of disengagement [from Gaza]." This report shocks very few observers who follow European politics. Anti-semitism is deeply entrenched in these nations who are well-known appeasers. Although no single country is mentioned as far as their part in formulating the report, intelligence sources believe it has all the earmarks of a French and German coalition. Even in the United States, there are many liberals and radical leftists who either criticize Israel or blame the Jews for all the world's ills. For instance, anti-war movement icon Cindy Sheehan has repeatedly made references to American soldiers dying for Israel. Recently, this writer observed a bumber sticker that read: "Fight for America, Not Israel." Jim Kouri, CPP is currently fifth vice-president of the National Association of Chiefs of Police.
