Dr. Dror Eider, a Europe affairs commentator and former Israeli Ambassador to Italy, warned that Western civilization is collapsing due to Islamization and a loss of national identity, drawing parallels between the current riots in France and threats facing Israel. Speaking on the program "Yoman HaTzohorayim," Eider described the violent, unprecedented riots in France and other European locations as a dire sign of the West's decline.
Eider highlighted the historical memory of the Jewish people, noting that they have witnessed many civilizations rise and fall. He expressed concern that the current events in Europe evoke a sense of impending historical disaster. He criticized French President Emmanuel Macron's policies, suggesting that Macron's attempts to appease external threats by sacrificing Israel's interests have proven futile.
Analyzing the social and demographic shifts in Europe, Eider identified a strong religious and historical tradition and a deep sense of national belonging as pillars of past civilizations. He argued that Europe has deliberately abandoned these foundations in recent decades. He recounted a conversation with a professor who, as early as the 1990s, heard a Catholic colleague in Belgium express a passive acceptance of Islam's future dominance.
Eider issued a stark warning that "Europe's nuclear weapon is about to fall into Islamist hands," attributing this to Europe's loss of spirit and will to live. He announced efforts to collaborate with European partners to strengthen "normal forces" and attempt to save the continent. He also cautioned Israelis against complacency, urging them to appreciate their national revival and remain vigilant against structural and cultural threats, despite Israel's current economic and social resilience.
