Why Europe is terrified of taking a stand against Iran

Europe’s jitters about regime change in Iran stem from Iran’s proven ability to sow chaos across Western Europe.
That’s why Keir Starmer told a Muslim iftar gathering that Britain did not bomb Iran — and was met with applause.
Useless Europeans are terrified and increasingly submissive to Islam (yet tough on Russians).
And soon a convicted jihad terrorist is set to win an election in Birmingham.

Iranian “refugees” mourn Khamenei in Norway – Journalist harassed while covering it: Unprecedented

In Trondheim, Norway, a group of self-described Iranian “refugees” gathered to mourn and praise Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei—the very regime many claim to have fled—after his recent death in U.S.-Israeli strikes.
As a journalist trying to cover the event, I was physically chased away, while local police saw no issue with it.
The rally was organized by Norwegian left-wing and pro-Palestinian groups, including major trade unions and political parties. In over two decades as a member of Norway’s journalists’ association, I’ve never witnessed anything like this in central Trondheim.

The media have entered the war

On the fourth day, Norway’s state broadcaster, NRK, entered the war. Its flagship evening news programme *Dagsrevyen* opened by stating that 165 people had been killed in an attack on a girls’ school in Minab. NRK did not mention that a base belonging to Iran’s Revolutionary Guard lay just 60 metres away. Instead, the discussion focused on whether the aircraft involved were Israeli or American. The term “war crime” was raised.

The Two-Front War

Jonas Gahr Støre is having major problems making the world hang together coherently. He is supposed to balance between condemning the war against Iran while at the same time not becoming a defender of the religious dictatorship. He completely fails to explain how the removal of a murderous regime constitutes an attack on “international law”. When set against the regime’s murders, the word becomes meaningless.

NATO is failing, exactly as Trump predicted

The war in Iran lays bare where loyalty and risk tolerance lie. In Davos, Trump said the USA had «never gotten anything out of NATO»; soon after came the test: Starmer confined US use of British bases to «defensive strikes». Meanwhile, NATO chief Mark Rutte conceded that Europe cannot defend itself without the USA – yet that NATO will not engage in Iran. The contradiction poses a stark question: Will the USA stand up when Europe needs it?

Norwegian aid millions to an Islamist terror regime

In 2024, Norway provided 19 million kroner in aid to the Islamic Republic of Iran. The vast majority of this is channeled through the Norwegian Refugee Council (Flyktninghjelpen), which is led by Jan Egeland (from the Labour Party, Ap).

Europe after 28/2: Between a rock and a hard place

Operation Epic Fury struck not only Tehran and its murderous mullahs. Across Europe, governments are currently in crisis meetings, and speechwriters weigh every word on gold scales. How we act in the coming days may decide whether the European nations are plunged into chaos of terrorist acts and civil war—or take another step toward total submission to Islam.

Iran gets 9/11 in return, and Europe is put to the test

Trump’s intervention in Iran may mark a new phase in the relationship between Islam and the West. Yet Islam’s ideological struggle continues within the West itself, where Europe stands evasive, weak, and conflict-averse. Europe has alienated the United States and Israel, and allowed its political culture to be shaped by its Muslim populations. European leaders warn against escalation in the Middle East, even as our cities glitter with Ramadan decorations and the calls to prayer ring out over rooftops and church spires.

Tempi Train Disaster, 3 Years Later: Maria Karystianou Breaks the Silence on Corruption in Greece

Three years after the Tempi train disaster that claimed 57 lives, Maria Karystianou—the mother who became a national symbol for justice—speaks in an exclusive 25-minute interview.

– A nobel cause

With his eight-minute speech on Iran, Trump has taken a decisive step towards re-establishing the United States as the indispensable nation that fights for freedom for all peoples. Trump takes up again the tradition established with the victory over Nazism and Japan and crowned when the Wall fell in 1989. But by then Europe had become soft and had lost the will to sacrifice.
