European anti-Semitism, Euro 2004

Heye shalom, and news today that Spain--at the behest of the European Union--has built its own separation fence in its northern African enclave of Ceuta. For the uninitiated, Ceuta and Melilla are two cities in Morocco which Spain retained in 1956 when it withdrew from colonized Morocco. And anyone who manages to cross the border into one of the two cities can then travel on to any part of the European Union (excepting Britain which is--surprise, surprise--not part of the Schengen agreement, and Ireland which couldn't do it because of Britain). So, crossing this border is a very attractive opportunity for "illegal" immigrants to gain entry to the EU. And given the hysteria over immigration, particularly in, yes, Britain, the EU resolved to build a badass fence around Ceuta. It is eight meters high and double layered and its purpose is to help in the fight against "illegal" immigration and, I'm sure, "terrorism". They're building the second fence around Melilla. Now, is this the same EU which has so relentlessly been pilloring Israel for building OUR security fence? And remember, our fence is one that actually SAVES LIVES; it prevents access to murderous beasts seeking to massacre people, not people merely seeking a better life. Is this not yet another example of anti-Semitism and hypocrisy exhibited by the enemies of Eretz Yisrael? And we're supposed to take pronouncements from the "international community" (in which the EU forms a substantial clout) which dictates us to do one but itself does the exact opposite. Screw you! The fence stays. And when your terrorist friend bastards stop attacking us (as they did Sderot last week), the fence will come down.

It's the final match of Euro 2004 today: Portugal v. Greece. I'm still upset that Greece defeated the Czech Republic a couple of days ago so I hope they lose. It was a shame; I really like Czechia: it's a nice, unpretentious country with lovely, sweet people, and the way it lost was just heart-breaking. And I happen to like Portugal better than Greece so there's yet another reason to support the hosts.

L'hitraot...
