Guess who funded the attempt to arrest Ehud Barak
I'm sure you will all be shocked - just shocked - to hear who was behind the effort to arrest Ehud Barak in London last week.NGO Monitor today revealed that the Palestinian NGO Al-Mezan, behind the effort to arrest Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak, is funded by a number of European governments. Although the UK authorities rejected the attempt, NGO Monitor notes that Al-Mezan’s role is another example of the abuse of European taxpayer funding in the anti-Israel ‘lawfare’ campaign.Read the whole thing.
- Al-Mezan’s core donors include the Norwegian government and a joint framework including Sweden, Switzerland, Holland and Denmark known as NDC. Additional project donors to Al-Mezan include the European Commission, Ford Foundation, Diakonia (Sweden) and Trocaire (Ireland).
One of these days, when it's used against them, maybe the Europeans will stop being so smug and self-assured. If it's ever used against them.

Once a precedent is set, its going to be hard to unring that bell. The Europeans are riding the back of a tiger they won't be able to dismount.
If ever.
Heh
It will be interesting to hear the reaction from France as they seem to be the only ones in this collection of appeasers to call a spade a spade when it comes to Iran these days.
