Outgoing EU ambassador: 'Israel has much to learn from us in war on terror'
2017-08-23
[Ynet] Concluding his mission to Israel, Ambassador Lars Faaborg-Andersen commends Israel’s operational handling of terrorism, but insists it could attach greater import to educational counter-terror methods; laments tendency to view EU-Israel ties as icy, cites widespread cooperation and acknowledges Israel provides ’highest caliber’ info on ISIS to Europe.
Posted for the amusement value.

#2  Listen up, Juices, while your euro-betters show you how it's done. While it is tempting to unlimber the snark, you really can't do better than Lars' own words:

"Europe has adopted a more holistic approach to the war on terror—and Israel can definitely learn from European experience."

When asked whether he considered this "holistic approach" to be a success, Faaborg-Andersen admitted shortcomings, but praised the overall approach.
