"Notably, we are concerned about the unconditional support by the European Commission you represent, for one of the two parties”, EU staff stated in a three-page letter, which was sent to von der Leyen’s office on Friday (20 October).

The letter has allegedly been sent to EU delegations around the world, including the European Commission’s representation offices. Around 32,000 people are on the EU staff payroll. Close to 850 staff are believed to have already signed the letter.

    The people signing it can also sign their resignation with it.

      Why? She’s the one that’s off the script. The official consensus is that the EU recognizes the right of Israel to defend itself as long as it does so proportionally and in accordance with international law, which are very important qualifiers (compare her speeches with Borrel’s speeches)

        Dude if you’re expecting rational, good-faith argument from someone who’s got the Russian coat of arms on their user profile, I’ve got some bad news for you…

        Its the first time in her entire career that she is right about something…

        Unconditional Support.

            That Bastard will be gone afterwards as the Israelis kinda hate him for allowing that to happen in the first place.

            This is about Israeli not that wannabe Dictator.

              You are certainly very optimistic, I think this will reenforce his position and in the end save his ass and restructuring attempts but we will see! Of course it’s about the Israelis and they have every right to defend themself which the EU and US should certainly support, I just think their current government can’t be trusted so unconditional support is probably the wrong approach and we should keep a very close eye on their actions as well! What annoys me most in the debates around this conflict is that ether side seems to believe absolutely everything their side claims immediately and feels the need to share it before we have any confirmation (see the hospital bombing), fuck everyone who dose that!

                The hospital bombing was proven to not have been done by Israel now. but honestly i can’t even imagine how stupid someone must be to believe that there were 400+ dead from a small explosion on a parking lot…

                Anyway, its very obvious that he is basically gone already, Israel has the best intelligence agencies in the world, he deliberately didn’t take action because he was busy fucking up the justice system, the people in Israel know that, a friend of mine lives there, he supported that bastard before this and thought he might fix the problems, now he wants him gone and i don’t think he is alone with that.

                Furthermore full support for Israel is literally a by default thing for Germany…

          Nothing deserves unconditional. There has to be some limits on actions.

            Of course, if they ask us to give them space laser permission we have to decline. That would be Barbaric.
