Good news from Europe

Not so good news from the West Bank

In fact, the bad news is that Ashton said the EU policy wouldn't change towards Israel. That is a pity since now that the US understand that settlements are only an excuse for PA not to negociate, the EU should be understand it as well.

Especially since:

Let's note that once again, it is Israel that does all the concessions and that there is no good will gesture at all from the PA. It continues rejecting any of the steps that they were required to do, be it in the Oslo agreement or in the "roadmap".

@jose 'it is Israel that does all the concessions'

For once I agree with you jose, Israel does indeed need to make all the concessions, this is simply because it has taken what doesn't belong to it and now doesn't want to give it back.

this is simply because it has taken what doesn't belong to it and now doesn't want to give it back.

No, Israel does all the concessions because there is no other party that makes them.
As usual you see facts in a biased antisemitic way.

Remember that Arabs are the people on Earth that took the most land in the world. At the beginning, Arabs were only tribes in Saudi Arabia. You can see that they invaded the whole of North Africa, went North utp to Turkey and East up to Iran.

Remember that they invaded 'Palestine' until the Muslim Ottomans came. They were finally driven out by the British.
The land of Israel belongs to Israel. The sooner 'Palestinians' (a phony name to try to establish legitimacy of Arabs on this land) accept the fact that they must negociate, the better. Meanwhile, Israel will not hold its breath and stop living.

And please note that zair's answer proves that he does not admit the Oslo agreement nor the "roadmap", since both of these documents required the 'Palestinians' to make some concessions.
The first of these concessions was renoucing armed violence. We all see that this had not been done. The second is stopping hatemongering. This not only hasn't been done but is going worse every year. Last example was Abbas inaugurating a town square named in memory of Dalal Mughrabi, who commanded the terrorists that perpetrated the 1978 coastal road bus hijacking, in which 37 Israelis, including 12 children, were slaughtered. Of course, hatemongering pervades PA TV programs, not even mentioning HAMAS programs.

All this zair fake ignoring and believes that no concessions are required from 'Palestinians'.

EU, more like E who?
As if Israel is going to take any notice of Herman van Rompuy or Catherine Ashton, two of the biggest non-entity "politicians" on the stage.

Catherine Ashton and van Rompuy were not involved in this stupid anti-peace letter. However, Catherine Ashton stated that EU would continue its usual policy, letter or not.

I see zair, so the Palestininas do't need to stop incitement against Jews in their schools and on TV and other media, they don't need to recognize Israel as a Jewish state, they don't need to renounce terrorism. Neither do they need to give up their claim to the Jewish and Armenian quarters of the Old City of Jerusalem, and their insistence that not a single Jew lives anywhere in Judea Samaria and the Old City. All these are perfectly acceptable to you.

But then, you are rabid Jew hating scum.

Ashton is a Communist. For years she was in charge of the coffers of CND, a Communist front organization which campaigned against liberal domocracies but never against the totalitarian dictatorships of the Soviet Union or China. Indeed, when she was running the finances, she accepted money from the Soviet Union - ata a time when the Gulag Archipelago of concentration camps were in full swing.

She is an antisemitic, anti-West Communist moron with a third rate mind, and commands no respect within the EU (and that's saying something).

they don't need to recognize Israel as a Jewish state

According to zair, they don't even need to recognise Israel at all.

But then, you [zair] are rabid Jew hating scum.

Please amber, avoid these truisms!
