Wenn in der nächsten Woche möglicherweise „Friedensgespräche“ zwischen der israelischen Regierung und einer PA ohne Mandat in Washington beginnen, wird die Europäische Union durch die Abwesenheit ihres Personals zeigen, was sie von ihnen hält:
„The European Union said it will not participate in the US-backed peace talks between Israel and the Palestinian Authority due to start on Thursday in Washington.
A spokesman for the bloc’s foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton said she will be in Beijing meeting with Chinese leaders at that time.“
Zeitgleich mit dieser Prioritätensetzung klagt der französische Außenminister Bernard Kouchner darüber, daß die Europäische Union bei den „Friedensgesprächen“ nicht die Rolle spielt, die ihr als Sponsor der „Palästinenser“ doch zustünde:
„France wants the European Union to have a seat at the table during next week’s start of US-backed peace talks between Israel and the Palestinian Authority in Washington.
French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner said it would be ‚too bad‘ if the EU were locked out – noting the bloc’s political involvement in the region and its role as a top contributor of financial aid to the Palestinians.“
Kennt Bernard Kouchner wohl Lady Ashtons Handynummer?
Oder kennt er die seines Kollegen Herve Moran?
„French Defense Minister Herve Moran sent a letter to his Lebanese counterpart Elias Murr offering to sell Lebanon 100 HOT anti-tank missiles to be armed on the Gazelle helicopters already in use by Lebanese Armed Forces. [..]
France‘ sale of weapons to the LAF comes at a time when Washington has grown increasingly skittish over the issue of funding and arming the Lebanese military over concerns that the LAF may become engaged in a fight with Israel, an American ally, or be co-opted by the terrorist group Hizbullah.“
