Europe is led by material interests, not democratic values.

And it's not even their own material interest lol

Europe has plenty of investments in Israel and vice versa, especially military and real estate. Those investments won't pay off if they put sanctions on Israel or break ties with them.

I meant Europe sabotaging itself for the USA interests since 2022. Those ties with Israel are literally zero price to pay compared to avoiding of enegry crisis, if only they weren't captured by USA interests so much, but again, Europe is in energy crisis literally only because they are vassals of USA to begin with.

I see your point, but Europe is in this crisis more because they don't have a robust energy sector of their own. That's what explains their interests being captured by the US on that front, because before 2022 they relied on Russia for their oil and gas.
