America’s war on Iran has revealed much about its allies. Israel is as steadfast as ever, as secretary of war Pete Hegseth pointed out on Monday. Australia and Canada have also made clear their unequivocal support for the military action.
In Europe, however, the response has been lackluster. Hegseth regretted the faintheartedness of “traditional partners who wring their hands and clutch their pearls, humming and hawing about the use of force.”

The timidity of Europeans towards regime change in Iran is in stark contrast to their aggressive attitude towards regime change in Russia. Last year Von der Leyen called Vladimir Putin “a predator” who can “only be contained by strong means.” In November, Macron declared that Europe “must show that we are not weak in the face of the power that threatens us.”
Why the difference? Russia, for all its malevolence, does not have the means to stoke civil unrest in western Europe. The Islamic Republic of Iran does.
It is estimated that there are 45 million Muslims in Europe, approximately 6 per cent of the total population. Of course, many will support the US and Israeli attack on Iran, mindful of how Tehran massacred tens of thousands of protestors in January. Nevertheless, it is instructive that while there have been countless mass demonstrations in western European cities for Palestinians since 2023, street protests in support of Iranians have been negligible.

Because immigration matters.
But they were too stupid to think about that in advance.
He [Trump] noted that some European nations have been helpful to the U.S. regarding Iran, saying Germany has been “great.” He also praised NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, calling him “fantastic.”

This war will likely end with Kuwait having the most US kills.
“”45 million Muslims in Europe, approximately 6 per cent of the total population. Of course, many will support the US and Israeli attack on Iran””
I don’t believe that for a minute. Muslims are Muslims no matter where they came from or where they reside; they will ALWAYS hate Israel and the US...
European troops aren't all over the middle east putting themselves in harm's way so would European countries have a problem with Iran?
I wonder what Macron and the Frenchies will do if the new ayatollah lobs a missile into France.

“”””It is estimated that there are 45 million Muslims in Europe, approximately 6 per cent of the total population.””””
I would want to know the percent of Muslims in EACH COUNTRY.
I believe France’s Muslim population is something like 20%.
Allowing a country full of Muslim immigrant scum might have something to do with it.
The world needs a mass Muslim extinction event.
Not surprising...
Think about the consternation in MN if we attacked Somalia...
None of these third-world ragheads is interested in anything that doesn’t include the destruction of America...
Well they just voted in the son. A grudge and hate.
They did it to themselves, and are proud of it.

The background of the author might explain why he tends to downplay the Muslim threat in many European countries.
Europe is already invaded and is full of socialism, feminism, white guilt, and wanting to eliminate white people altogether.
“I wonder what Macron and the Frenchies will do if the new ayatollah lobs a missile into France. “
They’d demand we kick their ass.
how about we lob a few into France for good measure
Dhimmis gonna dhimmi.
Europe is bringing in their own regime change. 10 years from now, it will be Muslims.
