"The peace process in the Middle East is not like IKEA furniture," one Israeli official said, "It takes more than a screw and a hammer, it takes a true understanding of the constraints and sensitivities of both sides, and in that Sweden failed miserably."
It hasn't been a great year for Israeli-Swedish relations. First there was the controversy over an article which accused Israel of stealing Palestinian organs. Then this week, Sweden issued a proposal calling for the EU to recognize East Jerusalem as the capital of a Palestinian state.
