European countries could set a good example by condemning Hamas, but most likely won't
The United States is leading a push at the United Nations to win crucial backing from European countries for a resolution condemning Hamas, the Israeli ambassador said Tuesday.Some European country representatives, I'm sure, will vote for it, but not all will. Certainly not if their leaderships are corrupt, as is the case with Britain, France, Ireland, Spain in the west, and even Poland and Russia may not be willing to either. On which note, one of the commenters on the article said:
The General Assembly is expected to vote Friday or possibly Monday on the proposed resolution condemning rocket firings into Israel and demanding that Hamas end the use of violence.
Israel’s Ambassador Danny Danon told reporters that US diplomats were in talks with their EU counterparts on the draft text. European backing would significantly boost chances of approval by the 193-nation body.
“The US is negotiating the language with the EU,” Danon told a briefing. “For us it’s very symbolic to have this resolution presented with the support of the EU.”
If adopted, it would mark the first time that the assembly has voted to condemn Hamas, the Islamist terror group that has ruled the Gaza Strip since 2007.
Of course we should support the resolution. But I suspect many won't. My idiotic city council (Dublin) recently voted to fly the palestinian flag over city hall. Pretty shameful and embarrassing.Indeed. That's the sad reality, coming about as the result of obsession with antisemitism in Europe.

“Al Qaeda seeks to destroy the Jewish state completely.
Much of its rhetoric and some of its attacks suggest
that it sees international Jewry and Israel as
interchangeable. The group’s rhetoric is also viciously
anti-Semitic in addition to being anti-Israel.”

This quote is only about Al Qaeda, but should
we believe that other radical Islamic terrorist
organizations would behave much differently?

Harvard Law Professor Alan M. Dershowitz said:
“We [Jews] are not the Swiss and our history is not
one of being left alone. It is one of constant
victimization and repression. Without power – indeed,
without power disproportional to our numbers –
we continue to be victimized. We should strive
to enhance our power on every front.”

“…if Israel’s military power were ever to
be diminished to the point that the combined
armies of the Arab world could defeat it,
I believe there would be another Holocaust.
No Arab dictator who could defeat Israel
and forebore from doing so would survive
the continuing frenzy for jihad
[Islamic holy war against non-Muslims].
And an Arab military victory over Israel –
unlike the Israeli victories over the Arabs –
would not result in a mere occupation or
even detention of Israeli Jews.
It would result in a mass slaughter,
designed to rid Arab holy land of
Jewish intruders. Most Jews know this,
though they rarely speak of it openly."

Harvard Law Professor Alan M. Dershowitz said:
The most recent Hamas provocations — having
40,000 Gazans try to tear down the border
fence and enter Israel with Molotov cocktails
and other improvised weapons — are part of
a repeated Hamas tactic that I have called
the “dead baby strategy.”
Hamas’ goal is to have Israel kill as many
Gazans as possible so that the headlines
always begin, and often end, with the body count.
