Middle Eastern gulf separates EU and US
guardian.co.uk -- On either side of the Atlantic, fundamentally different attitudes towards the problems of Israel and Islamic unrest are hardening. When continents drift apart they usually move so slowly that nobody notices, but since George Bush became president the Atlantic has widened perceptibly. In the pre-Bush era, disputes between Europe and the US could often be passed off as differences of nuance rather than substance. What is emerging now, however, particularly in relation to the Middle East, is a fundamental difference of approach that will be hard to ignore or resolve.
