Europe’s leaders have, with a few honorable exceptions, failed to recognize the severity of the threat of continued Muslim migration to the Western world. They prefer to turn a blind eye to the demographic change in their countries, as the percentage of the population that is Muslim inexorably rises through both migration and fertility rates much higher than those of the indigenous non-Muslims. Some of those leaders see Muslims as a potential source of political support, and shape their policies accordingly.
We’re not quite there yet, but Nils Haug sees the mene-tekel on the wall, and fears for the future of Europe, as the population of Muslims inexorably increases and European leaders refuse to support America and Israel in their fight against the Muslim enemies of Western civilization. More on his grim prediction can be found here: “Islam’s Turbocharged Takeover of Europe,” by Nils A. Haug, Gatestone Institute, May 6, 2026:
The battle lines for the preservation of Western civilization were drawn long before the murder of the Dutch filmmaker Theo van Gogh in 2004. The double-dealing actions of many European leaders have been endlessly on display for all to see.
Now, both the US and Israel — in their quest to stop the indefatigable enemies of the West and maintain free trade, democracy, and military deterrence against these predators — may have found themselves thwarted. By whom? By their “allies,” no less: Belgium, France, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands, Germany, and the United Kingdom.
These nations, along with Norway, Denmark, Slovenia and Canada, have imposed sanctions, restrictions, and punitive measures of various sorts against Israel during its efforts to defend itself — and them! — against enemies of civilization and the West. The threat, with ballistic missiles, was to come from Iran, about to achieve nuclear weapons capability in two weeks or less, as well as from the regime’s proxy jihadist forces, Hezbollah, and the Houthis.
Similar measures, designed to frustrate the Israel-America coalition against an openly predatory Iran, seem to have arisen from two main sources. The first has been the anti-democratic influence of Islam in the domestic affairs of Western Europe; the second, from a deep-seated anti-Semitic doctrine in Europe, now more present than ever – and being strongly reinforced.
Jews have been unwelcome wherever they were since the time of the Pharaohs 4,000 years ago. Jews have been expelled by the Babylonians in 597 BCE, the Romans in 136 CE, the English in 1290, the French in 1306, and the Spanish in 1492.
The notion that Jews were victims at every time and in every place is simply wrong. Cyrus the Great, the founder of the Persian Empire, ended the Babylonian captivity of the Jews in 538 B.C. After conquering Babylon, Cyrus issued a decree allowing the Jews to return to their homeland of Judea, and authorized the rebuilding of the Second Temple in Jerusalem. And while Jews were expelled from Spain in 1492, those same Jews were welcomed to settle in Amsterdam and in Salonika. And while Jews were expelled from England in 1290, Oliver Cromwell welcomed them back around 1656. In France, after having been expelled in 1306, Jews were re-admitted in 1791, after the Revolution, and given equal rights to all others in France. In America, there never was any official antisemitism. Before the resurrection of the Jewish state in Israel, America has been the safest and best place for Jews to live.
Iran, it turned out, indeed possesses ballistic missiles capable of reaching deep into Europe, yet European nations remained unperturbed….
And the Iranians are now working on intercontinental ballistic missiles capable of hitting the continental United States.
Since World War II, the US has been the backbone of NATO, while Europe has parasitically fed off America to jump to its defense. Instead of developing military preparedness, Europeans have, for years, reduced their forces in favor of funding, in addition to their own citizens, millions of newcomers [overwhelmingly Muslim economic migrants] who are not shy about saying how much they loathe their new domiciles. Without the burden of building functioning militaries, at first their economies prospered enormously – at America’s expense. They have now been exposed as “paper tigers,” while Russia is in the midst of trying to seize Crimea and Ukraine.
Again, this needs correction. Russia is not “in the midst of trying to seize Crimea.” Russia seized and annexed Crimea in 2014. And the European members of NATO are not “paper tigers” anymore; they have been raising their spending on their military to 5% of their GDP, as NATO required in the past, but often overlooked. That 5% goal will be reached for all NATO members by 2028. Meanwhile, the European NATO members have been sending much more aid to Ukraine than has the United States. Between January 2022 and August 2025, European countries and institutions (EU) committed roughly $201.7 billion in total support, compared to $130.6 billion from the US.
Wellington says
The European members of NATO are not paper tigers anymore? I’m dubious. What good is any military if one is afraid to use it? Should America ever count on Western European nations in NATO having its back? Besides, what will this 5% exactly be spent on? Hopefully not things like DEI-recruiting and sub-standard equipment. There is also the major matter of how many Muslims will be in the militaries of Western European countries. And for the record, US aid to Ukraine through December of 2025 was 188 billion and I believe has now topped 200 billion.
Of course the ultimate culprits here are not the feckless Western European nations but two woeful American Presidents, Obama and Biden. Under Obama, Putin took Crimea. Under Biden, Putin invaded Ukraine proper. Putin has invaded nothing when Trump has been President. The only thing tyrants respect is force. Trump has been forceful and to say Obama and Biden were doesn’t even pass the laugh test.

“…what will this 5% exactly be spent on?”
Great question.
At present, the UK could not even conduct a repeat of their 1982 Falkland Islands war with Argentina.

We’re already seeing that now, particularly w/ Spain and Britain. Madrid all but supports the islamic regime in Iran, while London was very reluctant to let the US use its military bases, including Diego Garcia, to launch the war in Iran (although they relented later). In case of the latter, I don’t see why the US opposes Britain ceding the Chagos to Mauritius: they could instead try & co-opt Mauritius into their Quad alliance (India+Japan+Australia+US), although that would require Trump being less hostile to India on issues from Fuckistan to China
One more reason why it’s beyond high time to exit NATO. After the US, it’s Turkey which is the most powerful NATO member, and all of us know that they have their own agenda: a resurrection of the Ottoman caliphate. So let Europe deal w/ that, if they want to. But other than helping Israel become self sufficient so that they can survive on their own, we need not bother. Countries that recognize the real threat, such as Poland or Hungary or Cyprus, we can have bilateral security arrangements w/ them. But others, like Spain, France, Britain, Germany, et al – they’re on their own
Once this Iran saga is over, we can then pull back all US troops home, or deploy them in Latin America, from the Rio Grande to Tierra del Fuego. In the Indo-Pacific, the Chicom threat seems to have waned, courtesy the infighting in China and President Xi crippling his military in order to minimize the threat to himself, but in the process, also crippling their warmaking abilities. So we can dedicate the US armed forces to the Donroe doctrine as far as geopolitics goes

Possibly, but there is a risk that Mauritius – for whatever reason – does not “join” the Quad alliance.
And the United States definitely needs the very militarily strategic Diego Garcia.

Mauritius, despite the Chinese attempts at influence, is allied to India. It’s the world’s 3rd Hindu-majority country, after India and Nepal, and so Indian influence there is strong. If the US follows sensible policies w/ India by recognizing their concerns about Pakistan, they could have Delhi win over Mauritius as well
James Lincoln says
Infidel,
Thanks for your very informative reply.

Those Muslim migrants who were allowed to enter the countries of Western resulted in them not only being ungrateful but even worse yet many of those Muslim migrants becoming so very arrogant to the point that they became criminals . As in some of them engaged in rioting and even rapes of the European girls and women.h
In addition to this vile brutal behavior by the heinous Muslim who were kindly permitted to enter the nations of Europe to live, As the countries of ,for example Germany France, Sweden, Denmark etc. This unthankful Islamic spirit on the part of those lawless violent Muslims who immigrated to the countries of Europe may be explain, in part, by the fact that the Muslim fundamentalist group that even had the president of Egypt assassinated in the month of October of the year 1981 has a fifty –five booklet that is was written only for Muslims fundamentalists but was later discover by non-Muslims.
This booklet’s title is THE NEGLECTED DUTY. One scholar, Johannes Jansen who had thoroughly investigated Islam and Islamic terrorism has even discover that those Muslims, who had entered Europe of behaved in violent and heinous ways, are actually action out what they view and a sacred individual duty of the jihad as by engaging in awful violent criminal action in non-Muslim lands . As Jansen revealed that jihad booklet of Islam, THE NEGLECTED DUTY “contains all the ideological material needed to justify the attacks of 9/11 or any other acts of terror committed to frighten non-Muslims. And he thinks the document explains the criminal behavior of suburban and center –city immigrant youngsters in many European cities; its author clearly ‘sees Islam as license to kill rob and commit arson.’ “ [1]
Nevertheless, many of the apologists for Islam still have that blatant gall , in spite of all the facts of reality, to actually make the claim the Islam is a “peaceful religion.” What a totally false to make that Islam is “a peaceful religion “What Bull! A “peaceful religion” indeed.
[1] THE ISLAM IN ISLAMIC TERRORISM by Ibn Warraq pages 308, 309. See less
Walter Sieruk says
It may be truly said that “A specter is haunting Europe – the specter of Islam.
Therefore, it might be of some interest to a few people that that a book with title of JIHAD IN THE WEST published in the year 1998 authored by Paul Fregosi ,was a man who was thinking ,a bit ahead of his time ,as in before 9/11 and then many Islamic horrors of jihad terrorism that hit London, Manchester, Madrid Paris as well as other Western nations of Europe .For above mentioned book of page 411 reads “Most worrying , both Islam and the West see each other as potential enemies of tomorrow .The future is a source of concern , not of optimism.”
For this year of 2026 is the “future” as seen from the time-frame of the year 1998 when that book was published. As the author thus had a valid point in what he wrote in the above quote .
Moreover the threats of the jihadists towards the people of the nations of West .This has been further explained and revealed by in the book , by Robert Spencer ,THE HISTORY OF THE JIHAD FROM MUHAMMAD TO ISIS .Which in page 367 informs the reader that “The early twenty- first century saw a sharp rise in jihad massacres perpetrated all over the West by individuals or small groups of Muslims: in London, Manchester, Paris, Toulouse, Nice ,Amsterdam, Madrid, Brussels, Berlin Munich ,Copenhagen…”
Those jihadists /Muslims with their insidious jihad-minded Muslims scheming for the subtle and not so
subtle, Islamic conquest of Europe by every possible means, including the stealth and violent jihad which is, indeed, awful.
As explained by William Wagner in his book HOW ISLAM PLANS TO CHANGE THE WORLD .Which informs the reader n page 195 “Of all the continents of the world, Europe is probably the number one target by Muslim strategist who are seeking world dominance.”
Therefore, all Europeans and other Westerners would be wise to be on guard.
