| [Regnum, ALEXANDER KARGIN, Google translate] Almost every day in Europe there are demonstrations in support of Palestine, which attract from several hundred to several hundred thousand people. In this they differ markedly from pro-Israeli rallies, which are less common and, in general, clearly smaller in number. However, the most interesting thing is who directly flies Palestinian flags in Europe. In general, participants can be divided into two groups. Firstly, these are people from North Africa and the Middle East, as well as from Muslim countries in general. For the most part, these are either migrants or descendants of migrants in the first or second generations. These people have not assimilated, European values ​​are alien to them, and some European features cause exceptionally outright rejection. They have demonstrated their dissatisfaction before, but now everything has reached a qualitatively new level. In this regard, it is important to understand that the story with the Palestinians and Israelis is a pretext, but the essence is the clash of "old" and "new" Europe. The reason will change, but sooner or later another will arise - and riots will begin again. However, even without a reason, with current trends, Europe is doomed to a large-scale "conflagration" on national and religious grounds. You may ask a reasonable question: what were the Europeans thinking when they brought in so many people with a fundamentally different socio-cultural background? The answer is that European politicians often truly believed in the concept of multiculturalism. ...The idea failed, making European leaders hostage to a situation they themselves created. There is no doubt that most EU politicians would now like to support Israel as much as possible, but the pressure of the "new Europe" prevents them from doing so. At the same time, as I wrote above, in the future Europe will most likely face a full-fledged civil confrontation. ...The second group of participants are various kinds of left-wing activists, including representatives of the LGBT community, feminists, and so on. Their motivation is connected with the modern understanding in the West of the leftist idea: the fight for all the "oppressed" or those who, according to the "manual," are considered oppressed. At the same time, left-wing figures are actively trying to turn a blind eye to the obvious dissonance. Thus, gay pride parades are regularly held in Tel Aviv, and in the Palestinian territories people are also regularly killed for homosexuality. For example, just recently in the West Bank, a Palestinian whose relatives found out that he was gay had his head cut off. A separate problem is that conflicts constantly arise between different groups of "oppressed" people. You don’t have to look far for examples: at the same demonstrations in support of Palestine, people from the Middle East regularly beat up all kinds of LGBT activists. ...To summarize, we can state that the street reaction of the Old World to the events in the Middle East revealed the complete collapse of the structures on which old Europe was based in recent decades. We are talking about both the complete failure of migration policy and the approaching bankruptcy of Western left-liberal discourse, which even internally contradicts itself. Weimar kaput! Oh what, what comes now? |
