EU Turns Its Back on Israel; Implications Dire"Israel's 'occupation' of these areas [beyond the 'Green Line'] is legal twice over – since it merely gained them in a war of self-defense in 1967, and is thus legally entitled to hold onto them until the belligerents stop waging war upon it. Which they still have not." -Melanie Phillips REPORTER'S NOTE: If you've found yourself scratching your head over the complexity of modern Israel's history and current political status, help is here today in the form of a short, simple message from a British Journalist. Entitled: The Baseless Hatred of the EU towards Israel, it's a sort of "Idiot's Guide to the Existence of Modern Israel." It explains how it all started after WWI when western powers indiscriminately carved up the Middle East. Then, of course, Hitler happened, the Jews were practically wiped off the face of the earth, and again politicians got involved. Meanwhile, the state of Israel fights for its manifest survival. -Teresa Neumann
Given the current state of affairs in the Middle East, this controversial move by the EU is poised to have devastating effects. Starting in 2014, contracts and agreements between EU businesses, institutions and individuals from those newly outlawed areas will no longer be legally recognized by EU courts. According to Israel National News, Israeli experts say the implications will have a major impact. Israeli MK Tzachi Hanegbi told Israel Radio that the new EU policy is far more radical that what the U.S., or even Europe itself, was accustomed to in the past.
In excerpts from that article, Phillips writes: "Consternation in Israel over the EU's malicious decision to boycott individuals or institutions situated over the 'Green Line' between Israel and the disputed territories. This would presumably include boycotting, for example, the Hebrew University which is just over that line or, even more grotesquely, Jewish residents in Jerusalem's Old City—where ancient Jewish settlement far predated the arrival of a single Arab, dating as it does since King David who built it as the capital of the kingdom of the Jewish people. "News of the EU's act of existential spite against Israel broke on the fast of Tisha b'Av, when Jews mourn the destruction of the Temple (you know, that Temple, the one that stood in Jerusalem all those centuries ago before any Arabs existed, let alone any Green Line) along with the seemingly never-ending list down through the ages of all those prosecuting their uniquely murderous and baseless hatred of the Jewish people. "Some coincidence. To that list of infamy, the EU can now add its name. For shame."

(Israel)—The European Union last week announced its new official policy of boycotting Jews and Israelis in areas of Israel liberated in the 1967 Six Day War, including Judea, Samaria and most of Jerusalem. 
For those who are put off by the complexities of modern Israel history and politics, British reporter Melanie Phillips, writing for the U.K.'s Daily Mail, has provided a short, brilliant synopsis of the state of affairs. It's entitled, The Baseless Hatred of the EU Towards Israel.
