We are not satisfied with the European Union's explanation that the removal of Hamas from its list of terrorist organizations is a 'technical matter'. The burden of proof is on the European Union and we expect it to put Hamas back on the list forthwith given that it is understood by all that Hamas - a murderous terrorist organization, the http://mfa.gov.il/MFA/ForeignPolicy/Terrorism/Palestinian/Pages/Hamas_Covenant-Excerpts.aspx covenant of which specifies the destruction of Israel as its goal - is an inseparable part of this list.
