Is Europe waking up?

"Europe, in short, is beginning to wake up to the Iranian threat and its terrorist aspects. Shortly after this crisis began, hard-headed European analysts such as the Daily Telegraph's Con Coughlin pointed out that Iran had almost certainly orchestrated this crisis to distract attention at the G-8 and the U.N. from its nuclear progress and wider ambitions. The sudden outbreak of realism at the G-8 suggests that Bush, Blair, Chirac, Germany's Angela Merkel and even Putin share Coughlin's analysis. Maybe they even hope that Israel will reduce their problems by saving Lebanon from Hezbollah rule and Iranian manipulation. They should.

Does this mean an end to the anti-Israel orthodoxy of European politics? Probably not. But it may be the beginning of the end."
