Comments on: Hapless French Foreign Minister unwittingly provides portrait of European weakness as he patronises and condemns Israel (I translate here his interview today with a French newspaper) http://www.robinshepherdonline.com/hapless-french-foreign-minister-unwittingly-provides-portrait-of-european-weakness-as-he-patronises-and-condemns-israel-i-translate-here-his-interview-today-with-a-french-newspaper/ Think Tank Blog: The online repository of articles on anti-Zionism and civilisational decline by analyst Robin Shepherd Thu, 29 Jul 2010 22:36:50 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.2 By: Gábor Fränkl http://www.robinshepherdonline.com/hapless-french-foreign-minister-unwittingly-provides-portrait-of-european-weakness-as-he-patronises-and-condemns-israel-i-translate-here-his-interview-today-with-a-french-newspaper/#comment-2056 Gábor Fränkl Tue, 23 Feb 2010 13:41:06 +0000 http://www.robinshepherdonline.com/?p=2180#comment-2056 Well, on my part I tend to think that Kouchner is a terribly naive, mis-, or underinformed, sorry, idiot. Right in the league of Miliband. (Perhaps Miliband is more outright hostile to Israel than Kouchner, "thanks" to this former's "lover of Zion" family background.) But curious how France and Sarko, of all states, talk about "extrajudicial" killing now. Actually this is rather amusing. What was it they tempered with in New Zealand's port a decade ago against Greenpeace activists? Greenpeace activists, Hello! The French secret services muredered at least one innocent! Not an arms-dealer terrorist with a past of several killings! You must love the hypocrisy! In fact this is even beyond he "usual" realm of hypocrisy. Read the writer/journalist Jonathan Fenby's "France on the brink" (subtitle: The problem with France - I have the book) about the orbital hatred Chirac's campaign of nuclear tests in the middle of the Pacific Ocean at Muroroa triggered all around the world in 1995...

KAT says what the west should be doing is fostering the development of a new, secular political movement in Palestine that would provide Palestinians with a choice other than either/or of rottenly corrupt Fatah / murderous theocratic fascist Hamas.

Well, looking back on European behaviour, every time the Arabs and/or the Palestinians got themselves into a fix vis a vis Israel the Europeans and America immediately rushed to comfort the spoiled child swamping it in funds. After so many times it appears that they do this on purpose, revitalising the aggression to continue the pressure on the Israelis/Jews. In your second set of thoughts you wrote:

Haven't they heard the recent Shabaneh revelations ? They're in danger of delivering the West Bank to Hamas on a plate. Fatah is corrupt to the core and deeply unpopular, while Hamas are a bunch of bearded Islamo-fascist loonies. Are there any decent people on the Palestinian side ? Why is the West so blind ?
