Lies, False Accusations, the EU and its Parliament President

...Mr. Schulz, many Israelis are asking why, just a short time after the catastrophe that befell our people on European soil, the president of the continent's parliament has come here using figures plucked from sources that paint Israel in the same light as the Third Reich. Unlike you, I checked the facts, and I ask: Is it true?

The alleged figures presented by EU Parliament President Martin Schulz are patently false. Actually, they are very far from the truth. Since 1967, quality of life for the Palestinians has risen exponentially -- and that includes the water amount. We can only imagine what would have been had they remained under Jordanian rule.

Schulz could have checked the figures, but instead he chose to adopt the false narrative wielded by anti-Israel organizations. NGO Monitor (an Israeli nongovernmental organization that keeps tabs on human rights NGOs in the Arab-Israeli conflict) has pointed to the Emergency Water, Sanitation and Hygiene group, a coalition of political organizations and U.N. agencies operating in the corridors of the European Union. EWASH consistently accuses Israel of "causing water insecurity among the Palestinian population," and strongly urges European countries to "reconsider the economic relations with Israel."

Not at all coincidentally, the EU, of which Schulz is the head of parliament, supports this political warfare and funds several of these organizations. The exalted peace Schulz speaks of does not coincide with the 100 million euros received by Israel and the Palestinian Authority every year -- almost all of which comes directly from European governments and is earmarked almost entirely for strengthening NGOs fighting against Israel under false claims to delegitimize it in the world.

As the years press on, it becomes more evident that the EU's appeasement toward the Palestinians -- in congruence with its subversive approach toward elected Israeli governments -- leads to the continuation of the conflict and terrorism. With the money lining the pockets of Palestinian officials and which support the international fight against Israel, the Palestinians have no reason to compromise on anything. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and Martin Schulz are doing the job for them.


Europe has a deep psycho-moralistic interest in keeping the conflict as it is. This way it can clear its own conscience regarding the Jews. After all, here we have it, the Jews are treating the Palestinians in the exact same manner as they were treated. This is the lie that must be fought.

The Jewish nation has returned home, to its only country. No other sovereign state was established here since our exile over 2,000 years ago. This land was waiting empty and desolated for its only rightful sons, and only after we returned did the land start bloom, precisely as the Bible prophesied. Europe must help the return to Zion, not combat it. The return to Zion is not only a Jewish interest; it is also in the interest of Europe and a great privilege.

Mr. Schulz, many Israelis are asking why, just a short time after the catastrophe that befell our people on European soil, the president of the continent's parliament has come here using figures plucked from sources that paint Israel in the same light as the Third Reich. Unlike you, I checked the facts, and I ask: Is it true?
