    They’re involved in the organization and Cyprus is geographically situated in Asia paving the door for “Israel to join” that some individuals are proposing.

      Cyprus is located on the Eurasian tectonic Plate, mate.

      And with your logic, it would also pave the door for every other Asian country, not just Israel. So why are you so focused on them?

        There is no such thing as europe anyway. It’s just a racist concept the white have made up to distinguish themselves from yellow and brown people. How come the Ural is a continental boundary and the alps, the andes, the rockes aren’t? Bitch please

          Bit of an assumption.

          The earliest notions of Europe as a continent are from a time where your neighbors who speak a slightly different dialect are the worst scum imaginable. Racism didn’t even exist (since races did not exist in anyone’s mind), xenophobia against everyone who dared to live right next to you was where all discrimination was based on.

          We’re talking 600 BCE for the concept of Europe and Asia as separate geographical regions to emerge.

        It’s actually located outside of it. Israel is geographically close to Cyprus.

          No I don’t, and I don’t mean your mangled idiom but the intention behind it.

          How does Cyprus or Australia being part of the EBU pave the road to Israel becoming a member of the EU?
