this oil struggle, not only have a huge impact on the entire capitalist world economic and differentiation in the political relations between Western Europe, Japan and the United States to isolate and attack the United States and Israel . Many Western European countries in order to obtain the oil supply in the Middle East, the U.S. policy of support for Israeli Zionism, take a refusal to cooperate. For example, the United Kingdom allowed the United States to use its domestic and overseas territories transportation facilities for Israeli transit supply, West Germany prohibits the U.S. supply of arms of Israel from the West German port in Spain, Greece and Italy, and other countries do not allow American planes land in their territory or flying over its airspace, the joint statement issued by the EEC nine foreign ministers meeting further raised: Israel must end the occupation of the territory to maintain since the 1965 conflict, we must consider the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people.
