French people support Egypt more than Israel
A recent public opinion poll showed that Egypt obtained a positive view of 46% of the French people-equal with Morocco-while Israel secured the support of only 44%.
Published by French L'Expresse magazine, the poll showed that only 32% of the French support Palestine, while Syria got a lower percentage.
The United States won 77% support from the French at a time it was thought the anti-America trend in France is growing.
The French held both the Palestinians and Israelis responsible for the peace process debacle.
The French also expressed belief that the Middle East problem will not be solved except through establishment of two separate states.
