The reason Israel tiptoes around the vile atheists that run the EU is all due to economics. Israel does a tremendous trade with EU countries and needs this to survive. This trade is in medical devices (Israel is a world leader), hi-tech items and agricultural products as mundane as oranges.

Trade between the EU and Israel is conducted on the basis of the Association Agreement. The European Union is Israel’s biggest trading partner.[12][13] In 2013 the total volume of bilateral trade (excluding diamonds) came to over €27 billion. In 2013, 32% of Israel’s exports (excluding diamonds) went to the EU and 34% of its imports (excluding diamonds) came from the EU.
