sanctions on Russia but not on Israel

"In a parallel world, recognisably similar to but at some distance from our own, EU gnomes behind their plate-glass kraal in Brussels solemnly debate sanctioning Israel for wrecking hospitals and the wholesale murder of civilians, such as blowing children playing beach football in Gaza to pieces. They gravely note the fact that the American federation (read: the US and its cisatlantic marionettes) ensures that arms and fighters continue flowing into Israel, and that strong American state sponsored nationalist propaganda continues supporting the illegal actions of armed separatists on the West Bank. They harbour no hifalutin scruples about the directness of the causal chain linking the $3 billion of annual military aid from the US to the exploding of white phosphorus and DIME bombs over civilians in Gaza."
