What's the model for success? Paris?
Call me "psychic"....
Actually you just read the "end of the Book" and thus know the ultimate outcome....
What's the model for success? Paris?
1. Israel would never be accepted in the EU, since it is no European country.
2. Nations with open conflicts are usually not accepted inside the EU.
3. The member nations of the EU are for sure not interested in joining their fight against all of Arabia.
4. Some of the member nations have better relations with the enemys of Israel than with Israel itself.
5. Israel is simply not important enough to European countries due to its small population and economy for takeing a firm stand on its side.
6. Pro Israel: Germany; maybe Poland. Against Israel: The rest.
Sad but true.
"Psychic?" No, that's doubtful, but perhaps you've read the Bible? ;o)
Israel joining the EU would result in the destruction of Israel as a Jewish state.
They would not be able to prevent immigration buy muslims, and the muslims would simply move in and vote the Jews out of power, and then use the authority of the government to oppress them.
Democracy requires the free flow of truthful information to operate properly. The palestinians and the residents of other muslim countries have been fed hateful propoganda for generations. A true democracy among the plaestinian people will take a long time to get running. In any case Israel is deserves the right to be a Jewish state if they choose to do so. They do not prevent people from emmigrating if they don't want to live there under those rules. The Jews have made far more than enough concessions to the palestinians who's refugee status is mainly self-imposed.
Israel has nothing to gain by joining the EU.
