I genuinely don’t know whether to laugh or lose my mind anymore at this European hypocritical double standards.
When it comes to Vladimir Putin, suddenly it’s Churchillian resolve. No compromise. No dialogue. Arm Ukraine to the teeth, sanction everything that moves, wreck your own energy security if necessary - because tyranny must be confronted.
Fine. I actually respect the consistency of that … in isolation.
But then you turn around and lecture us - us - the Gulf monarchies, Jordan and Israel, about showing restraint with Tehran? About dialogue? About coexistence?
Are you serious?
For forty years - forty bloody years - this regime has been waging a shadow war across the region. Militias, proxies, sleeper cells, terror networks, destabilizing entire countries - Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Yemen - and threatening the Gulf monarchies, Jordan, and Israel nonstop.
This isn’t theoretical. This isn’t abstract. This is lived reality.
And yet here come Emmanuel Macron, Keir Starmer, and the rest of the European choir, gently advising us to calm down, de-escalate, and - what was it again? - “give diplomacy a chance.”
Diplomacy with who, exactly? With a system that has built its entire regional strategy on plausible deniability and proxy terror violence?
You were willing to absorb inflation, energy shocks, and political backlash at home to confront Moscow. You made that choice. You said: this is the price of standing up to a tyrant.
So don’t come here and tell us - after decades of being on the receiving end - that we should just sit down, smile politely, and “coexist.”
Either you believe in confronting tyranny everywhere .. or you don’t.
Macron, Starmer, rest of EU leaders and top bureaucrats should just STFU and spare us the self righteous sanctimonious lectures!🤐🤫
