On December 8, in the heart of the European Union (EU) headquarters in Brussels, pro-Israel Christian organizations sought to convey practical advice from Israel to help Europe deal with its terror crisis.
Deputy Speaker of the Knesset MK Yehiel “Hilik” Bar (Labor) and Shuli Davidovich, deputy chief of the Israeli Mission to the EU and NATO, joined EU officials at a conference titled “Terrorism and Security: What the EU Can Learn from Israel.”
Member of the European Parliament (MEP) Bas Belder said he learned this lesson from Israel: “Try to tackle terror and prevent it in [their] backyard, and don’t wait until they come to your backyard.” The event was organized by the European Coalition for Israel (ECI) and the European Christian Political Movement, and drew 150 attendees.
