Well,PASOK was socialist leftist and later centre-left to become complete centre like New Democracy eventually became. But ever since the 60s to at least the late 2000s,Greece has been on the pro-Arab camp. Without that meaning that we had some animosity against the Israeli citizens or Jews. But both anarcho-communists and right-wing patriots and nationalists were not in favor of Israel's oppression of the West Bank and Gaza nor of its wars in Lebanon. Each for different reasons maybe,but at least that was one thing they agreed on.I find it a bit weird because I'm old enough to remember when it was the other way 'round: Greece was "pro-Palestinian" and Turkey was quietly allied with Israel.
(Of course, back then Greece was nearly Communist and Turkey was still a military-enforced democracy.)
And in the same time period,Turkey was buddies with the "yahood". Common exercises, weapons purchases,friendly visits.
