"The Israelis are hostages of Hamas, while Gazans are the hostages of both Israel and Hamas. Their fates are conjoined. When hostages released by Hamas earlier talked about the meager food they received while in captivity, one pita a day with some rice occasionally, they also related that this is exactly what their captors received. This was something to think about, which no one in Israel bothered to do"

RT by @EUintheUS: Today we joined EU institutions everywhere in a moment of silence for Jacques Delors, former EU President. His recent passing & legacy remind me of the necessity of the European project & its place in the world. I believe in his words: "Greater Europe has its future ahead of it."
