Red flags are waving among European Jews as Belgian left-wing politicians call for the release of Palestinian Authority arch-terrorist Marwan Barghouti, now serving five consecutive life sentences for the murders of tens of Israeli civilians.
Belgian Socialist MEP Veronique De Keyser told colleagues last week she admired the “moderation and maturity“ of Palestinian Authority Arabs, according to the EJP news service.
“I wonder how they are able to limit violence in the territories given the background,” she commented at a European Left Group hearing, held at the European Parliament on the issue of PA political prisoners. “If the Israeli ambassador comes in the future to speak of Israel’s security, I feel like I want to strangle him,” she added.
