It’s a strange deal. The EU is doling out over a billion dollars USD to Egypt, apparently to help with the EU’s illegal migration problem: “concerns mount that economic pressure and regional conflicts could drive more migrants from the region to Europe’s shores.” The most logical approach would be to police the EU’s vulnerable areas […]
European Parliament Takes Strong Stand On Palestinian Schoolbooks, Then Capitulates
“And what they undid, did” (Antony and Cleopatra, Act II, Scene II) Just two months ago, I posted a hopeful piece here about the decision of the European Parliament to call on the European Commission to end all aid to the PA, because it has failed so singularly to fulfill its repeated promises to remove […]
Palestinians Pressed Financially From All Sides
Arab donors to UNRWA have cut their donations by 90% — from $200 million in 2018 to a mere $20 million in 2022, and show no signs of reversing course.

EU plans to give Tunisia a billion dollars to stem migration
Four months ago, leaders of the EU agreed on a plan to allocate “significant funds to bolster cameras and personnel at the frontiers,” to stem the flow of illegal migrants flowing in mostly from Africa and the Middle East.

European Union, Council of Europe fund ad campaign: ‘Freedom Is In Hijab’
Meanwhile, Iranian women are being killed fighting for the right not to wear hijab. Could the EU be more tone-deaf? Could it be more unmistakably on the path to submission and Islamization? “Islamic veil: for the European Union, ‘freedom is in the hijab,’” translated from “Voile islamique : pour l’Union européenne, « la liberté est dans […]
EU Capitulates, Will Open Its Pockets to the Palestinians ‘Without Conditions’
Ursula von der Leyen, the President of the European Commission, on July 14 tweeted her pious hopes for the EU-Israel relationship: “EU and Israel are bound to be friends and allies.

European Commission rejects formal pleas from 12 member nations to help finance border walls
Jihad Watch reported in mid-October: Greece has increased the presence of border police at the Greek-Turkish border to prevent a surge of migrants from Afghanistan, while joining 12 other EU countries that have sent a letter to the EU, calling for “more extensive EU measures against illegal immigration,” and requesting funding to build border walls. Aside from Greece, the […]
Turkish schoolbooks glorify jihad and martyrdom, include anti-American messages, sympathy for ISIS
Jihadist regimes have long understood the benefits of indoctrinating children to wage jihad and glorify martyrdom.

Italy’s PM accuses Erdogan of humiliating female EU chief, Turkey demands he retract his ‘impudent’ remarks
Women are deemed to be inferior in Islam. For more information about this subject, see HERE.
