Middle East includes 18 countries. These are Bahrain, Cyprus, Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Oman, Palestine, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the Syrian Arab Republic, Turkey, the United Arab Emirates and Yemen
Why is Cyprus considered to be a part of the Middle East and also a part of the European Union? Why are the European Jews in Palestine considered to be a part of the Middle East and they are completely a foreign European people?. Claiming an identity that does not belong to them is very shaming to any group of people.
