Trump Administration Vows To Fight EU Decision To Put Warning Labels On Jewish Products
Yesterday, the EU’s Court of Justice, the highest court in the EU, ruled that Jewish products made in contested areas of Israel must bear consumer warning labels.

As Israel faces repeated rocket fire from Islamic jihadists, the EU engages in its own battle to delegitimize the Jewish state in its latest ruling condoning discriminatory labeling practices for Jewish goods produced in contested areas of Israel.

Yesterday, the EU’s Court of Justice (ECJ), the highest court in the EU, ruled that Jewish products made in contested areas of Israel must bear consumer warning labels. Prior to the ruling, U.S. lawmakers in Congress fired warning shots, cautioning the EU that such a move would prompt the enforcement of American anti-boycott laws, thus endangering the EU’s trade with the United States.

Now, according to reporting by Adam Kredo of the Washington Free Beacon, the Trump administration is ready to go to battle over the ruling. Currently, the United States is the EU’s largest trading partner.

The origins of the legal dispute stretch back several years to when the EU issued a mandate in 2015 declaring that products produced in the West Bank and Golan Heights be labeled as coming from an Israeli settlement, facially for the purpose of promoting “consumer protection,” although it’s unclear if that is actually achieved here. In late 2016, France became the first EU member state to attempt to enforce the mandate, resulting in the Israeli winery Psagot filing a lawsuit claiming that such a mandate violated the EU’s anti-discrimination laws.

You would think that Europe would be especially sensitive to "labelling" when it comes to the Jews given their history.

No kidding.  Wow.

[goatprairie]

Maybe the EU can force them put a yellow star on the products. Maybe visiting Israelis in EU countries will be made to wear a yellow Star of David. Where have we seen that before?

They were,before the Islamic and leftist takeover of Europe. The elitist European who really and truly think the Muslims they are importing will be cheap domestic and factory workers that will work cheap and cause them no trouble. That just shows you how out of touch with reality to wealthy,mostly trust fund children,of Europe really are.

 How freaking stupid is that?

Well,I guess no more stoopid than their leftist American brothers,who think the Muslims will be happy to vote them into power and them be grateful and obedient little fascists.

Well consider too that Russia is occupying parts of Georgia...the Ukraine and all of Crimea.

There's no call in the EU high courts to label products in those Russian occupied territories with some special marking or extra label.

Naw... They are going to do it again. Watch and see.

Is each product going to have a number tattooed on it.

Europe is hopelessly lost to the stinking mussies.  France will look like Syria...SOON, and all landmarks other than mussie landmarks will be destroyed.  Christians and Jews will face an endless bloodbath from those peaceful mussies in Europe.

I have a friend in Sweden who says her country has become a nightmare.

If the USA does not get smart on islam, we will follow in their footsteps.  Check out the numbers for the Diversity Visa Program.  My guess is that year in and year out, 80% being awarded the Greencard are mussies.  And most years, Iran citizens are the number one recipients.  Makes no sense.  You can see the numbers for every year by country on the Internet.

Again, Trump was right on the money.  Islam is the enemy of western civilization, and vice-a-versa.  One will destroy the other, and right now, my money is on islam.  Western leaders are too stupid and dishonest to admit to the threat.

"Warning labels"???

@Fishrrman

Ya gotta admit,as far as warning labels go,that one is going to be hard to top.

[PeteS in CA]

Will the label be a yellow Star of David?

Maybe Euros should show they are serious about this and boycott Intel products, since Intel does design and fab in Israel.

Seriously? They're tone deaf. They're all on the 'welcome diversity' bandwagon (translates to "open your arms to the Mohammedan hordes who will wipe out your way of life if you let them".)

After all Global Socialism is the Fourth Reich.
