- It has been one year since Israel suffered its worst ever terrorist attack, with Hamas and other Palestinian armed groups killing more than 1,000 Israelis and taking more than 250 hostage. Israel's response has devastated Gaza, displacing most of the population and killing more than 41,000 people, according to Gaza health authorities. Meanwhile, Lebanon has been hit hard by the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah, with Israel eviscerating the Hezbollah leadership, in response to which Iran launched a massive missile strike against Israel.

The European Union is not only impotent but it has become irrelevant in the political momentum in the Middle East.
Asking rhetorical questions. Israel, the only country willing to speak to Islamists in the only language they comprehend. And they speak it fluently. Europe needs to wake up, before it's too late. Hungary, Poland, Czech Republic do not suffer from social decay gripping France, UK, Germany and Sweden.
Ciesfire?! Where were you for a year when Israel's north was destroyed?! Why do you wake up only when Israel goes to protect itself?
Hamas needs to respect international law?! Did you read their charter?!
A recognize for a Palestinian state? Did you read their chaeter? They don't want the existence of Israel more than they want a sovereign state... they acted accordingly since the beginning.
Israel has been protecting themselves since the beginning they fired 4 times the missiles into Lebanon than Hezbollah, your talking rubbish
israel was protected by these politicians for decades?
suddenly they dont suffice?
how fast the slefproclaimed state goes trough their supporters is like a meatgrinder...
Impotent there more then supportive of israel
Yes!
Remind that before 7 October what was behavior with Palestini ?
The Latvian fellow is just recycling Israeli talking points😂
Is not about "impotence", it is just that Europe has no reason to get involved in that middle Eastern mess.
Oh, and thee are no innocents parts in the middle East.
you are absolutely right. It is like Ukraine, its an European problem
You both seem to not realize Europe caused the mess in the middle east with their greed
