2023-11-02 “The world is responsible for failing to call out the reality of the Israeli regime” Deputy Richard Boyd Barrett during Leaders’ Questions asks the Irish leader: “How many innocent Palestinian civilians – men, women and children – does Israel have to slaughter, how many war crimes does Israel have to commit, and how much death and destruction does Israel have to visit on the people of Gaza and Palestine before the Taoiseach will call for and impose sanctions on Israel, expel the Israeli ambassador from this country and call for the immediate referral of Israel to the International Criminal Court for crimes against humanity and war crimes?” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfwVvOBrB6A
2023-10-23 The U.S. and Europe in a Time of Crisis The Biden administration has been working hard to keep the European Union and its major constituent nations in support of America’s basic policies on Israel-Gaza and Russia-Ukraine. This is no mean feat, since many Europeans tend to be more war-weary and averse to open conflict with Russia, and less clearly on the side of Israel. On Sunday, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen doubled down on her support both for Ukraine and for Israel, in a speech to the youth organization of the CDU, the German center-right party from whence von der Leyen came. This came after more than 800 EU staff took the unusual step of writing the Commission president to protest what they criticized as her pro-Israel tilt. Meanwhile, the close and necessary U.S.-EU bond is fraying over economic issues. https://prospect.org/blogs-and-newsletters/tap/2023-10-23-us-europe-time-of-crisis/
