Back in February 2007 I authored a post entitled Eurabia And Israel. The basis of the post was a poll conducted in Israel that showed a full 75% of Israelis would like Israel to be part of the European Union.

Since then a new poll has been conducted and it has revealed that more than 75% of Israelis would like their country to join the European Union:

“More than 75 percent of Israeli Jews would like Israel to join the European Union, a recent survey found…

..Commissioned by the Konrad Adenauer Foundation’s Israel office….

…More than 60 percent of Israelis think because of the Holocaust Germany has “a special obligation to support Israel.” Perhaps surprisingly, 36 percent of Israeli Arabs share that view.

The survey, which was conducted earlier this month by Keevoon Research, also found that 40 percent of Israeli Jews might be eligible for EU citizenship, with at least one grandparent being born in an EU member state. ” [Source: Haaretz]

I have heard of the saying “when in Rome do as the Romans do” but I must admit that I’ve never heard of the saying “when in the Middle East do as the Europeans do.”
