EU Leaders Now Interested in Gaza, Post-Genocide
Brussels, it seems, has finally noticed Gaza exists, and not just as a backdrop for high-minded declarations about 'Israel’s right to defend itself.' After months of UN agencies begging for aid access and documenting mass starvation, Europe now wants a 'role.' This comes after the EU chose to largely sideline itself, with Ursula von der Leyen's initial unqualified support for Israel in October
2023 drawing sharp criticism from within the bloc for undermining humanitarian calls. One might wonder what 'role' the EU envisions — perhaps sending delegates to observe the rubble, or drafting strongly-worded letters about proper re-internment procedures? This sudden push for 'influence' appears to sidestep their historical complicity in enabling the current catastrophe, preferring a seat at a
future, blood-soaked table rather than demanding a ceasefire when it mattered.
