Between the Arabs and Israelis, Europe would probably end out choosing the Arabs. Especially when you consider the large numbers of Arabs living in Europe who make up a rather valuable constituency, and will only be more valuable as they grow.
That pretty much describes the left. People on the extreme right are amenable to Israel (unless their rabid antisemites), but they're not really the types of friends you want...

I'd say that right now, "popular opinion", for what it's worth (ie, not really a lot), would choose "a pox upon you both. We're kinda busy with our own thing here."
