Why is Israel in the European qualifiers while it's neighbors are in Asian qualifiers?

Why is Israel in the European qualifiers while it's neighbors are in Asian qualifiers?

Lots of muslim countries in the Asia block refused to play against Israel in the 70's and they were excluded from the AFC. For a while Israel didn't play any international football at all, but were eventually allowed to become a UEFA member in the 80's (after being in the Oceania block for a couple of years).

While I don't think excluding Israel and refusing to play against them is the answer, I can understand surrounding nation's feelings regarding Israel's brutal mistreatment of the poor Palestinians and the apartheid within Israel itself.
