I understand that much of BA's TLV traffic is connecting intercontinental traffic. (Especially since AA won't fly there because they involuntarily inherited US's pension scheme for former TLV-based staff, a scheme they refuse to honour despite the Israeli legal system decreeing otherwise.) I don't have the exact numbers though.
I don't know about LX ... but I would imagine there is a fair amount of connecting traffic.
Maybe AF/KL are not interested—you can't do everything. It depends where you want to send your widebodies. Most folks who book tickets don't know what the difference is. That's why we still have angle flats.
