EU under pressure to act against Israel's Ben-Gvir after flotilla taunts

EU under pressure to act against Israel's Ben-Gvir after flotilla taunts

EU states are calling for sanctions on Israeli minister Itamar Ben-Gvir after he taunted flotilla activists in international waters. Italy urges EU action, Spain and Ireland demand a strong response. But unanimity is tough-some countries block moves. Meanwhile, a few EU states have unilaterally banned him. https://www.thenationalnews.com/news/europe/2026/05/21/eu-under-pressure-to-take-action-against-israels-ben-gvir-after-unacceptable-flotilla-taunts/

Lol, as if sanctions will happen. Same story every time-outrage for a week then back to business. We should stop expecting anything from them.

Ben-Gvir is a known extremist. Taunting activists like that just shows his true face. Europe should've banned him long ago.

Italy, Spain, Ireland actually doing something? I'm surprised. Usually it's just words. Hope they follow through.

Unilateral bans are nice but ineffective. The EU needs a united front on this. Some members are clearly blocking justice for political reasons.

Finally some talk about sanctions, but 'unanimity is tough'? Classic EU weakness. These guys only move when the US allows it.
