The fact that Europe sees itself as the boss over here in Israel is nothing new.
The generous funding of Israeli NGOs such as B'Tselem and Breaking the Silence by European governments is old news. Nevertheless, the European meddling is taking on a new form and is not limited to simply funding Israeli organizations; It is not even limited just to matters related to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Here are three instances, from three countries, and this is just a taste of what is happening.
The first is Britain. This week, employees of the British Consulate in Jerusalem were seen at Jerusalem's Nahalat Shimon neighborhood (Sheikh-Jarrah). ... They came to protest the eviction of a family that had illegally inhabited a home it did not own, had not paid rent, and that was evicted by the execution office. A simple and elementary legal procedure in any state. But the evicted family was Arab, and the family that legally entered the home was Jewish. The British did not like this, and the consulate representatives were sent to hold a mini-rally against the Government of Israel. Would the Israeli government ever dare to act similarly towards Britain?
The second country is Belgium. I came across a small article titled 'Belgium demands compensation from Israel,' and I wondered what the State of Israel dared to do that required compensation. It turns out that Israel decided to enforce its law, and demolish a fraction of the many illegal structures funded by the European Union that are being built in Area C for the Arabs. It is no secret that European countries marked Area C as a strategic goal several years ago. They have invested tens of millions of dollars in these territories, with the goal of seizing as much land as possible and expropriating it de-facto, undermining Israeli control.
Over these six structures, which were built illegally and demolished by Israel, Belgium is now demanding 'explanation and compensation.' Not only have they broken the law and breached the Oslo agreement - they have the nerve to reprimand and demand compensation. ...
The last country, and this is just the tip of the iceberg, is Germany. The German interference alone can fill entire articles, which would indicate a deep obsession with everything that is happening in Israel. The Germans have long taken interest not only in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. They have moved on to meddling in internal Israeli affairs within 'Israel proper,' and in this case, they have been interfering with contents taught in the Israeli education system.
The German government has funded a study that deals with the level of Jewish studies in Jewish schools in Israel!
One of the latest reports published by the far-left group Molad - the same report that brought the word 'religionization' ('Hadata') into Israeli public discourse - is titled 'How the religious right-wing has taken over values education in public schools.' The tone in the report is anti-religious (some would say anti-Jewish), and behind the report stands none other than the German government.
How do I know this? It is explicitly stated: 'This publication was produced with the support of the Rosa Luxemburg Foundation, with funding by the German Federal Office for Economic Cooperation and Development.'
Did you understand this? The German government has funded a study that deals with the level of Jewish studies in Jewish schools in Israel. It is exactly as bad as it sounds, including the historical connotations that naturally spring to mind, because after all, 72 years is a very short period of time in human history. It is still fresh.
I have no intention to demean Europe. Europe is important, period. Germany, Belgium, Britain and other countries throughout the continent are important allies. They are important to Israel because of economic consideration such as trade agreements and exports, as well as technological, academic, military and diplomatic collaborations, and we shouldn't forget the splendid Belgian chocolate, either. We should not discount these countries or hastily sever any ties, but we also do not need to lower our heads because of every whim of any state, important as it may be.
... The Israeli public is smart, independent, alert and suspicious, it remembers history and has knowledge of international relations. The Israeli public knows what is good for it. It is called democracy.

2. Europeans Subsidize Illegal African Immigration into Israel
WHO IS PAYING TO KEEP INFILTRATORS IN TEL AVIV?

Extracts:
A new report released by the Im Tirtzu organization has revealed that legal efforts to maintain the illegal immigrant community in south Tel Aviv and bar government attempts to deport infiltrators are being bankrolled in large part by the United Nations.
Tens of thousands of illegal immigrants crossed into Israel over the past decade via the southern border with Egypt. Most of the infiltrators originated in Eritrea, Sudan, Somalia, and other countries in northeastern Africa.
Following the construction of the border fence along the Israeli-Egyptian frontier, illegal border crossings plummeted by more than 99% - but only after some 60,000 illegal immigrants entered Israel prior to the construction of the fence in 2012.
Alongside the successful effort to halt illegal immigration into Israel, the Netanyahu government has sought to detain illegal immigrants away from major population centers, then repatriate them to their countries of origin, or to resettle them in other countries willing to accept them.
These efforts, however, have been hampered by a series of court rulings, including decisions by Israel's Supreme Court.
Left-wing Israeli NGOs have figured prominently in the judicial battles over the government's detention and deportation of illegal immigrants.
Now, a report published by the Im Tirtzu organization has revealed the sources behind those NGOs.
According to the report, the groups in question received more than 46 million shekels ($12,850,000) from foreign entities from 2012 to 2017, including the United Nations, the European Union and EU member states, the US, and the left-wing New Israel Fund.
The European Union topped the foreign donor list with a total contribution of 16,874,460 shekels ($4,714,000), followed by the United Nations with grants totaling 10,171,116 shekels ($2,841,000).
State donors to organizations providing legal assistance to infiltrators included Germany, which donated 6,663,828 shekels ($1,862,000); Norway, which gave 4,520,249 shekels ($1,263,000); Sweden, which donated 2,169,472 shekels ($606,000); 1,741,136 shekels ($486,400) from Switzerland; the UK with 934,803 shekels ($261,140); the US with 634,213 shekels ($177,170); The Netherlands with 427,145 shekels ($119,300); and Thailand with 93,000 shekels ($26,000).
A fund supported jointly by Sweden, Switzerland, Denmark, and The Netherlands gave 2,079,602 shekels ($581,000).
Im Tirtzu chief Matan Peleg blasted the foreign agencies and organizations cited in the report.
"The rights of the residents of south Tel Aviv are being trampled again and again by organizations which claim to be protecting human rights."
"The [pro]-infiltrator organizations are working - with the funds provided by the UN, foreign governments, and the New Israel Fund - to do everything they can to secure citizenship for the infiltrators who have taken over entire neighborhoods and turned the lives of residents to an ongoing nightmare."

3. Rulers of Jordan and Support of Terror
 Summarization from This Ongoing War
The King and Queen of Jordan plus the Crown Prince (and supposedly future ruler) have gone to New York to give speeches at the UN.
Based on past performances they are liable to speak against World youth being drawn towards extremism and terrorism.
The problem is they seem to support it!
They give shelter and protection to Ahlam Tamimi, the Palestinian female terrorist who at 21 masterminded the massacre at Jerusalem's Sbarro pizzeria.
Tamimi, a woman terrorist happily confesses (time and time and time again) to the murders by bombing of fifteen innocent people and the maiming and wounding of 130 more.
Tamim and her family have publicly thanked the King of Jordan for the help he has given them.

As of a year ago, more than 2,500 Jordanians were reported to have joined the ranks of foreign jihadist fighters in Syria.
Three sons of sitting members of its parliament had been killed fighting "with ISIS or the al Qaeda affiliate Jebhat al Nusra, in Syria"
