Discussion: Netanyahu On Hot Mic: Rails On EU's 'Crazy' Insistence To Resolve Conflict

“The European Union is the only association of countries in the world that conditions the relations with Israel — that produces technology in every area — on political conditions. The only ones. Nobody does it,” Netanyahu said, citing Russia, China and India’s willingness to do business with Israel despite politics.

EU should meet Bibi half way; instead of insisting on a resiolution to the conflict before normal trade relations are restored, only demand that Israel cease building on occupied territory.

Call his bluster & bluff.

Proof that the Likud has no intention of doing anything to end the conflict. The Likud policies have done everything to greatly aggravate the conflict since the times of Menachem Begin. They campaign in Israel based on the conflict. Their allies in the AIPAC and lobbies like Bill Kristol’s raise tons of money and bully US legislators by exploiting the conflict. Going back to Begin’s Eretz Israel land grabbing policies, the Likud clearly intends to annex and incorporate even the meager Palestinian territories and make it impossible for there to be a Palestinian State.
