You said very broadly that Europe feels guilt. You never qualified your statements. My polls are entirely relevant. The point is, that the world as a whole is against Israel's current policies and you need to make it clear that you're distinguishing between governments and the populace unless you're going to muddle the message. It is also important because these very polls have many in Israel worried that they are becoming delegitimized. There is an article in the Economist today on that very point. You weren't wrong, you just weren't specific enough and that is always important in these discussions
I don't know why you think I'm trying to "muddle the message". I thought it was obvious that the people's opinion on this is totally irrelevant, because in Europe it totally is. Again, European governments support Israël no matter what, just like the US. And if you publicly question that support, people will question you and suggest you're anti-semitic. That's the reality over here. So even if polls show that random citizens think this or that about Israël, gvts will need much more to change their attitude. That's what I mean when I say those polls are irrelevant, in the sense that they have no impact on gvt policies. Just like when you had polls suggesting the vast majority of Italy was agaisnt the Iraq war, but Berlusconi still went.
People in Israël who are concerned about the dwindling support on part of the population or businesses are people on the left of the political spectrum from what I understand. Likud, Netanyahu, Lieberman and them couldn't care less about that support, actually it serves their cause on some :"See? Anti-semitism (since when you're against Israël policies you're supposedly "anti-semitic") is on the rise in Europe, they hate us! We need to "protect ourselves" or else they will wipe us of the surface of the Earth."
