European mockery hides European hypocrisy
By Victor Sharpe
To paraphrase Benjamin Disraeli: "There are lies, damned lies and European Union hypocrisy in descending order."
It is as clear as day follows night that the Europeans enjoy and luxuriate in their business dealings with Iran. So when they come, one after the other, to beg President Trump to keep in place – with some modifications – the execrable nuclear deal that Obama and Kerry contrived with the Iranian mullahs, it is in reality to maintain and retain their lucrative and morally reprehensible trade deals with the terror regime, which calls itself the Islamic Republic of Iran.
The Iranian mullahs and their armed thugs known as the Revolutionary Guard sought defensively to mock Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu's speech because he exposed them as the dangerous terrorists and congenital liars that they are.
But the majority of the European Union leaders by benefiting from the nuclear deal with Iran have also willingly and covertly created a catastrophic threat to regional and world peace.
Unlike them, any reasonable person knows that Netanyahu's speech did a great service to Judeo-Christian and Western civilization in proving that Iran's nuclear weapons program allows Islamic fundamentalism to endanger the entire world.
So now, the fatally biased and left leaning mainstream media, which hates both President Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu, again mocks, as they did when Bibi Netanyahu first warned the world several years ago against the appalling threat to the world from the atrocious Obama nuclear deal with Iran. A deal which both enriches with billions of dollars the terror sponsoring mullahs and helps speed the Iranian nuclear weapons program.
The same MSM in the United States made the false claim at the time that Netanyahu was trying to create a confrontation with the Obama Administration. Also, at the same time, they tried to manipulate public opinion by claiming that the flawed nuclear deal with Iran was good and important and must be upheld.
They were wrong, but for the uninformed the poison pill had been delivered. And the MSM and the Left continue to mock and obfuscate even now.
After Netanyahu's undeniable facts on Iranian duplicity, the MSM along with too many politicians – mostly from the Left, but with some of the usual suspects on the Right – falsely claim that no evidence of Iran's rush to acquire nuclear weapons was forthcoming. It would appear that the truth for such people is no longer relevant in this alternate universe they have entered.
At the same time that boundless hatred spews from the mouths of the MSM talking heads and from warped politicians, another inconvenient truth is now too sickening to be avoided; especially by the European Union.
On April 30th, the titular head of the so-called PLO and Palestinian Authority, Mahmoud Abbas, reverted again to his known anti-Jewish bigotry and racism. Abbas, now in his 14th year of an original maximum four year term of office, gave a speech replete with genocidal threats against the more than six million Jewish citizens of the reconstituted Jewish state of Israel.
As an unrepentant Holocaust denier, Abbas writes off the deaths of the 6,00,000 Jews at the hands of the German Nazis and their European collaborators – including the extermination of 1,500,00 children and babies – while threatening the living 6,000,000 plus Jews of Israel.
In the EU, there finally was consternation at the loathsome rant that Abbas delivered. Why was this so, after the EU and its functionaries and spokes-people had ignored for years his violent dissemination of vile hatred against Jews, as well as his less than friendly attitude towards the dwindling and harassed Christian population who still live within the territory the PA currently occupies?
The EU knows well that Abbas is a liar, a Holocaust denier and a corrupt recipient of vast sums of tax payer largesse from the EU, the UN and, alas, still from the United States. While releasing duplicitous statements in English about "peace," Abbas has for years embraced classic anti-Semitism and, in Arabic, incited against the Jewish state's existence within any borders.
As I have written so many times before, the 'Two State-Solution' is a term eerily similar in its hideous import to the Nazis 'Final Solution.'
The same Europe that erects Holocaust memorials, calls endlessly for the now deeply discredited notion of a 'Two-State-Solution,' willingly trades with the genocidal Iranian regime that has called for Israel's destruction, still routinely spews deceptive and fraudulent double speak from Berlin and Brussels, and has disqualified Europe from any serious mediating role in resolving the Islam-Israel conflict.
The same EU that annually commemorates the Holocaust of six million murdered Jews willingly ignored and indirectly financed the Palestinian Authority's genocidal Jew-hatred against the six million plus living Jews in Israel.
Abbas, by denying the Holocaust and outrageously demonizing Israel, apparently has crossed the line from "acceptable" anti-Semitism to unacceptable hatred of the Jewish people, and thus embarrassed the hypocritical European leadership.
So, here we see the twin demonic pillars exposed and pulled down:
First, the rush to belittle Netanyahu's dire warnings to the world of Iran's push for hegemony in the Middle East and its desire to destroy Israel or what it calls the "Little Satan" followed by its fervent hope to then destroy the United States, or what it calls the "the Big Satan."
Secondly, the long overdue realization that Mahmoud Abbas, just like his predecessor the arch terrorist, Yasser Arafat, have led the Arabs who call themselves Palestinians into illegitimacy. They have been indoctrinated and poisoned with hate by Abbas for so long that now they have no interest in living side by side in peace with the Jewish state.
Instead they wish to have no Jewish state, and their corrupt leaders in Hamas, Fatah and Islamic Jihad whose claim is to create a Palestinian state – where no such independent sovereign state has ever existed before – is no more than a colossal scam on the world and an endless cash cow to enrich a gang of brutal terrorists and hucksters.
