Stop! Or We'll Say Stop Again

Another impotent, worthless organization weighs in on the Gaza Situation:
Prague - The European Union Thursday repeated its call for an immediate ceasefire in the Middle East after a UN driver bringing aid to Gaza was killed in Israeli fire.

"This is another gruesome incident after a UN-administered school was hit," Czech Foreign Minister Karel Schwarzenberg, whose country chairs the EU until June 30, said in a statement.

"We are repeating our call: it is impossible to delay a ceasefire," he said. The United Nations said that a driver bringing humanitarian supplies from the northern crossing point of the Gaza Strip into the territory was killed when Israeli forces fired upon his convoy.

I tend to look on the E.U as an infant government, think along the lines of the United Colonies under the Articles of Confederation.

Perhaps it will come to nothing, perhaps it will some day lead to the United States of Europe (although I doubt they will use that name).

So, I tend to cut them a little more slack, they have not really yet created the mechanisms by which to act. On the plus side, the UK is exhorting other NATO members that they need to pick up more of the slack in regards to Afghanistan, and that they can rely on the US to do all the grunt work.

Cheers!

I just find it funny when impotent organizations issue threats.
