All sorts of findings that Europeans don't like Jews and Israel, but here are the important bits:
Results of a survey of five European countries - France, Italy, Germany, Spain, and Poland - published by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) on Monday.
While sympathy for the Palestinians' predicament seemed to persist, strong attitudes against Iran and Hamas were also shown, with a majority believing Iran is developing a nuclear weapon, and most supporting sanctions against Iran.
Fifty-one percent said they believed Iran's nuclear program was being developed for military purposes, and 16% said they thought it was both a weapons program and a nuclear energy program. Only 14% with their heads in the sand believed it was solely for nuclear energy.
Also, a majority identified Hamas as a terrorist organization and supported the European decision not to provide foreign aid to the Palestinian Authority government until Hamas abided by the Quartet's conditions. |
