Israel maintains diplomatic relations with 161 countries and has 94 diplomatic missions around the world. Only three members of the Arab League have normalized relations with Israel; Egypt and Jordan signed peace treaties in 1979 and 1994, respectively, and Mauritania opted for full diplomatic relations with Israel in 1999. Two other members of the Arab League, Morocco and Tunisia, which had some diplomatic relations with Israel, severed them at the start of the Second Intifada in 2000. Since 2003, ties with Morocco have been improved, and Israel's foreign minister has visited the country.
As a result of the 2009 Gaza War, Mauritania, Qatar, Bolivia, and Venezuela suspended political and economical ties with Israel.Under Israeli law, Lebanon, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, and Yemen are enemy countries and Israeli citizens may not visit them without permission from the Ministry of the Interior. Since 1995, Israel has been a member of the Mediterranean Dialogue, which fosters cooperation between seven countries in the Mediterranean Basin and the members of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.
Foreign relations with United States, Germany, and India are among Israel's strongest.

Yes. they did, they were the second country to recognize israel, Egypt being the first
The first Arab country to recognize Israel as a state. Under King Hussein of Jordan, a treaty was signed with Israel, which begins trade and diplomatic ties. Therefore, making Jordan the second state to recognize Israel, following the first, which was Egypt.
Israel is a singular country. It has no countries within it.
The Soviet Union was the first country to recognize Israel on May 17, 1948, less than a week after the Israeli Declaration of Independence. When the Israeli leadership pushes for Arab countries to recognize Israel as a Jewish State, what they actually mean is that want the Arab countries not just to recognize the Israeli government, but the right for Israel to be primarily Jewish State. A number of Arabs outside of government make a sort-of-work-around for accepting Israel in that they accept Israel as a country controlling a certain piece of planet, but believe all of the Palestinians who used to live there and all of their descendants should be allowed to return. If this happened Israel would become an Arab majority country and defeat the entire purpose of Zionism (the belief that there should be a Jewish State) and Israel's existence. As a result, Israeli leadership presses the Arabs to recognize Israel as it is, not Israel as they would like it. In the case of the USSR, which recognized Israel first, the USSR was quite willing to recognize Israel according to the tenets of Zionism, so although the term "recognize Israel as a Jewish State" was not used, the intent was the one desired by those who use those magic words.
Iran, has never recognize Israel as a country... so no....
There is only one country in Israel.
Before Oslo Agreement, every country supported one side, after this agreement: *countries that recognize Israel. *countries that agree with Israeli actions *countries that abstaining for both sides. *countries that support Palestine no matter what. *countries that support both most of the time. We can say that most of the Western countries support Israel, some no matter what and some agree on some things with the Palestinians. Over the years there have been more countries that recognize Israel and support her. In countries where most of the population are religious Muslims or Palestinians, there is problem with recognizing Israel. Many Jews in Europe are afraid that the immigration of Muslims to Europe will make these countries Anti-Israel.
