Well That's a Relief
The EU is taking a little siesta from hypocritcal Israel bashing:
One senior European diplomatic official in Israel said the EU has made clear to the Palestinians they would not support a Palestinian resolution on the security fence... In July the EU "disappointed" Israel by supporting a General Assembly resolution that called on Israel to comply with the International Court of Justice ruling to dismantle the fence... At the time Israel feared the Palestinians would try to bring another resolution slamming Israel for noncompliance to the General Assembly in the fall, and then possibly to the Security Council with a recommendation for sanctions.
So the EU has breaked off from the threat to punish Israel for not complying with unwarrented, illegal, and nonbinding court decisions. It almost seems like general harmony, world peace, and the end of anti-Semitism are just around the corner.
