What a joke! There is no such thing as a non-imperial empire. EU is just as any empire. This just makes me laugh.

"Freely decided to work together..."????
The EU has been built by deceit and lies.
In the UK nobody under the age of 52 has had a chance to vote on whether they want to be part of EU.
And even back then, it was EEC not EU they chose.

The quote is misleading as the whole quote
"Allow me to say that Israel is a member of the European Union without being a member of its institutions". While this might be still provocative, unlike your shortened quote it can be justified and sounds like Solana could have said it.

Why would I care about yours "justifying"?!
By calling qoute "provocative" you showing yourself incapable to understand the length and depth of those words.
Provocation to whom?Why would highest EU official do a "provocation" at all?
I didn't "mislead" anybody (except you poor kid)
I just quoted extremely problematic words we all
know that Israel is not in EU!
You are just young man who pretends to understand politics
GO away don't waist my time I really don't care what you think!
