European Politics: Double Standards Toward Israel
(Jewish Political Studies Review) Manfred Gerstenfeld - European political actions continue to cause Israel many problems, as seen in its voting record in the United Nations and in frequent condemnations from Brussels. The EU has also provided financing for a variety of activities directed against Israel. The mood created by the political leaders of European countries toward Israel often permeates their societies. This discriminatory attitude is enhanced by the media, NGOs, and some churches. These factors together have helped build an anti-Israel atmosphere in large parts of European society.
