A Polish MEP criticized the EU for allegedly supporting Israel’s actions against Palestinians, accusing the EU of indirectly backing Israel’s “genocide” by failing to condemn military operations. The MEP condemned Israel’s actions and accused it of using anti-Semitism as blackmail.
In a recent speech at the European Parliament, a Polish Member of the European Parliament (MEP) delivered a scathing critique of both the European Union (EU) and Israel’s policies regarding Palestinians. The MEP accused the EU of indirectly supporting what they called Israel’s “genocide” against Palestinians by failing to condemn Israeli military actions.
The speech focused on claims that the EU is giving Israel a “license to kill” by not holding the country accountable for bombings and military operations. The MEP suggested that Israel has been allowed to target countries or groups at will, labeling any opposition as anti-Semitic. They condemned this practice, calling it “deeply wrong” and asserting that the rhetoric around anti-Semitism is being used as a form of “blackmail.”
The MEP went on to accuse Israel of being a “terrorist state,” arguing that the use of the Holocaust as a justification for Israel’s actions was inappropriate and manipulative. According to the MEP, the narrative surrounding anti-Semitism is repeated to silence criticism of Israel, which they believe is no longer acceptable.
This controversial statement has sparked debates within the EU, with opinions divided over the language and accusations used in the speech.
