A fusion of woke ideology and Islamist activism has hollowed out Europe’s moral compass—and Jews are paying the price.
Europe is experiencing a convulsion whose moral center is failing just when clarity is most needed. What once appeared to be isolated debates about Middle East policy have become a sweeping civilizational crisis: a convergence of post-modern indignation, mass immigration and political opportunism that has normalized hostility to Israel and resurrected old antisemitic patterns in new guises.
The spectacle is striking. Public figures and intellectuals repurpose incendiary vocabulary—“apartheid,” “genocide” and “ethnic cleansing” —not as qualifications in narrow legal debate but as blunt instruments of delegitimization of the Jewish state. When such claims appear unchallenged on major platforms, they no longer function as critique; they become the scaffolding for erasure.
Europe’s focus today is not to criticize Israel, promote Israeli-Palestinian peace or even support the establishment of a Palestinian state, but rather to join the global assault against Jews and the very existence of the State of Israel.
This is not only about erroneous historical narratives. It is about the weaponization of grievance. In many Western capitals, campus movements, NGOs and media networks amplify a single, reductive narrative that paints Israel as the primary evil in a chaotic world.
Meanwhile, far graver and far more lethal crimes elsewhere—mass slaughter in parts of Africa, systematic campaigns of religious and ethnic violence in Asia—do not rouse the same global uproar. Selective outrage has moral consequences: when attention is monopolized by a manufactured narrative, real victims elsewhere are sidelined and genuine moral clarity is sacrificed for ideological convenience.
