"Anything short of suspension is a failure to uphold EU law, a betrayal of its stated values, and a dismissal of the growing public demand across Europe to end Israeli impunity and deliver justice for the Palestinians." www.aljazeera.com/opinions/202...

The EU must not wait till Israel starts executing Palestinians
It must cancel the EU-Israel Association Agreement immediately over Israeli violations of the human rights clause.

Wherever the agents appear, even when they lean idly, chatting, we see the cold threat of violence and the fragility of freedom. And in the brave crowds who gather to confront them, scrambling their illusion of total control, we see the power of solidarity, shining with human warmth.

How Germany Silenced Its Artists to Support Israel
