EU Trade Commissioner De Gucht, commenting on the Washington peace talks, told a Belgian radio station that he saw “few reasons to think that there is this time more reason for success. Do not underestimate the Jewish lobby on Capitol Hill…on American policy, whether on Republicans or Democrats. It is the best organised lobby there.”

He also said that there was “a belief among most Jews, religious and secular alike, that they are right. And belief is something difficult to fight with rational arguments. It is therefore not easy, even when you have a conversation with a moderate Jew, to speak about what is happening in the Middle East."
