Now would be a great time for the EU to grow a spine and use this as a pretext to stop all trade with Israel and sanction them for crimes against humanity.

Holding Israel accountable for their crimes is antisemitic /s

The German government will not go for that narrative, I’m guessing

Does the EU require unanimity in order to sanction a non-member nation? Does Germany have some sort of special status/veto power like the US does on the UN security council?

Isolate the country. Let them trade with the cowardly Americans only. Maybe they can use Trump trash “swag” for body armor.

Can I just say, not that it registers as important compared to the actual genocide, but the amount of articles and reports and votes that say stuff like this is so frustrating. I get that its part of the bureaucratic process but holy fuck I wish this lead to… Something… Like hopefully its cumulative I guess but the number of dead and starving while we decide if they deserve it is just insane.

These same countries wont stop weapon shipments to Israel while their organastions condem genocide and war crime violations in the same breath.

Trump declaring there will be peace in the region while allowing Israel to continue to attack Palestine is insane. “There will be no violence beyond the regular genocide I’m paying for”

So, the EU will now sanction Israel like it was done with Russia, right? Right? Right…?

EU leaders will now have to decide whether there is sufficient support to take action.

All EU governments are facing immigration crises which are fueling the rise of nationalistic factions. They could take an action here which would stop a population being forcibly displaced. Can they not draw a line between the two?

Yes, you have the support at home.

EU doesn’t have an immigration crisis, EU has right wing rasict ass neonazi assholes grifters problems, who are using racism and stupidity to gain power. It absolutely doesn’t correlate to anything in reality. You can’t convince those who are afraid of immigrants that not making people into refugees will help. They either hate poor non-white people and happy about the whole war situation, or they’re stupid and don’t have grasp on reality, they were said they refugees are the problem so they accepted it without knowing what that means.
People who oppose human suffering don’t see immigration as a problem.

But Germany’s Staatsräson says you have to do whatever Israel wants.

Yea but they also say you can’t wear a hat, something with rainbows or a shirt with a ‘palestine’ print on it.

Either they wanna be part of the Nazi party again or they think they funny or something.

We can lend the EU Chuck Schumer to write up that complaint letter.
