    "What common values? We have nothing in common with you." Indeed, Israel shares nothing in common with Europe. Israel has not colonized entire continents, enslaved and eradicated entire peoples/cultures like Europeans did in N and S America and Australia. Israel has not tried to forcibly convert or assimilate any minorities like medieval Europe did. Israel has not committed genocide like 20th century Europe did. Israel officially promotes multiple languages and religions while France and Switzerland ban religious clothing and architecture. So, indeed, nothing whatsoever in common.
