I was going to make a cynical joke, but this report was more explicit than I was expecting. It does feel like more and more of the Northern ruling class is realising that this project is no longer sustainable and, as Natasha Lennard put it, is now trying to future-proof its reputation by releasing these trifling concessions. Sooner or later, an antisocialist hack is going to pretend that capitalists were against this settler-colonial project from the very beginning.

A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.
Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.
Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.
We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose "defence force"'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.

Israel threw the west a real curve ball doing a completely unapologetic genocide without even trying to hide it. All the moral posturing that we saw over the past three years in Ukraine is now crumbling in the face of such blatant hypocrisy. All of a sudden it turns out that unprovoked wars are justifiable, that it's fine to murder civilians by their thousands, to bomb infrastructure, and commit every atrocity under the sun. It's becoming increasingly difficult to explain the contrast to the western public.
they're just (mostly) afraid to use the real and easy explanation for now. even though the western public is absolutely ready to eat it all up.
(the real explanation would be 
but out loud)
the EU will then proceed to do absolutely nothing
That's not true, they will proceed to continue providing political and material support for the genocide.
Yea you're right.
