She said, "The situation in Gaza remains dire. Israel’s strikes in Gaza go beyond what is necessary to fight Hamas. Bypassing the UN in aid deliveries undermines humanitarian principles. And incidents challenging the special status of Jerusalem risk further escalating tensions. "
Beyond what is necessary to fight Hamas? What, exactly, does she think is necessary and what isn't? Should Israel go back to bombing empty warehouses after being hit with rockets? Should it pretend October 7 didn't happen 600 days ago?
Given that Israel's goal is to destroy Hamas, this implies that the EU thinks that is going too far. Terrorist groups must be allowed to do what they want as long as they use human shields.
There is one other disgusting implication here: that Israel is not targeting Hamas alone. She seems to be saying that Israel is "going beyond" by not only targeting Hamas but also civilians.
And her last sentence on Jerusalem is also perverted. The only incidents she could be referring to is allowing Jews to hold a march in Jerusalem and to visit the Temple Mount. The "special status of Jerusalem" she refers to was never implemented, not for one day. The only status is that it is fully part of Israel and Palestinians claim it as their own with no legal or historic justification. (Jordan could make a case, but it no longer claims rights there besides the Temple Mount Waqf.)
