Well a "surreptitious" move might be going on, but I haven't seen evidence for it, nor does it follow that if the EU drifted towards Israel, the US would therefore move away. At Durban, the Europeans were reacting to the vileness of the openly displayed Arab anti-Semitism (the older term, Jew hatred, would make more sense here). The Arab lawyers union gave out cartoons that showed Jews with big noses, dripping fangs and Nazi swastikas -- as part of the registration package. Jewish speakers were shouted down. NGOs sold The Protocols of the Elders of Zion at their bookstands. Demostrators carried signs saying "Zionism is Racism" and "Hitler Should Have Finished the Job". Arafat called Israel a "Fascist, colonial, apartheid regime" and the Arab bloc made huge efforts to single out Israel from all nations as the world's chief practicioner of racism. I'm glad to see that France threatened to quit. I only wish they had.
