Brussels has shifted into crisis mode, with emergency meetings piling up Saturday and Sunday.
As European leaders raced to respond to the rapidly escalating conflict in the Middle East on Saturday after the United States and Israel launched strikes against Iran, the crisis exposed fault lines inside Europe — and across the Atlantic.
. . .
Brussels moved quickly to strike a cautious tone. EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas warned on X that the situation was “perilous,” while European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen stressed it was “of the utmost importance” to prevent further escalation. European Parliament President Roberta Metsola also urged restraint.
At the national level, however, Europe’s message was less unified.



I have Iranian friends that fled for their lives from the Iranian regime. I’ve seen their videos and heard their stories. Trust me, they have lost 1000’s of schools full of schoolgirls because of the current regime. They will gladly except another few if it means stopping the regime.
THAT is the level of absolute horror these people have been living with for decades now. We cannot be mad about what is happening now to prevent worse.
p.s. I still have nightmares from their videos. I lost all faith in humanity that day, and it took a while to get some of it back…
Iranians can have complaints about their situation, without looking for a Zionist puppet to rule over them.
Exactly! You get it. Right now they are glad to get rid of one dictator, let’s hope the future is one they get to choose themselves.
Nice Zionist atrocity propaganda, surely an Iraq-style “government reorganization” will help wonders! No mention of the current government in Iran being literally the consequence of western meddling!
If the west wanted a secular democratic government in Iran we wouldn’t have destroyed Mosaddeq’s political project and reinstated an authoritarian Shah. We want an underdeveloped and servient Iran to exploit their oil cheaply, literally the same story every decade.
The question is: did you fall for the atrocity propaganda yourself yet another decade? Or are you willingly running Zionist atrocity propaganda?
Good lord. You guys are angry.
I do not want to make it worse, but I truly feel you do not understand. Or you have not lived a hard life, for which I’m somewhat jealous.
So yes, the regime was a result of the west in the first place. And it was not going to be pretty to fix it. And Trump is not doing this to fix it, but to … well … I do not know, take people’s minds off of the Epstein files? Make money? I don’t know, but I hate him for it.
And I’m not “trading” a school for “better roads” are you mental (This one is from another poster btw, @[email protected] )? Everybody would choose the lesser of two evils. So 80 schoolchildren or 10000’s of them? If you HAD to choose? And these people do, they have to choose, and they’ve been forced to make these and other hard choices for decades now. And you come along and DARE to say what is happening now is bad? Where where you the past decades?
I have no love for the capitalists, for the colonizers, for Israel, USA, EU. I do however love people. And the fact these people have had to make real politik like choices? Makes me sad. I see the truth of it though. And I hope you guys will as well some day.
“Realpolitik choices make me support the genocidal Zionist regime and the US in their attempt to destroy Iranian sovereignty to turn Iran into another Iraq, Syria or Libya”
Hell no. Again, multiple things can be true at once. USA is bad. Komeini is bad. At this moment, many people are glad at least one of them is gone.
You’ve shown your true colours. Regardless, the antizionist axis of resistance will defeat the empire’s genocidal forces, they’re already being humilliated. Cope.
Totally, yeah dude, “invite the genocidal imperialists in to aid in the revolution” is the mentality of a person who has experienced any level of oppression. You’ve had a very hard life, I’m sure, typical Euro Lib who thinks having to do anything is adversity. You had to study for your exams? That’s about the same as having your entire life bombed into oblivion, or at the very least you know as well as someone who did experience that because you watched a video.
Gaslighting language and ignorance, you really are a bad person.
I hope you will awaken from the Maga cult some day. You are currently an unpleasant person the way you attack. Be better.
The enemy of my enemy is something the people in Iran currently feel about the US and Israel. Never said they are or should glad with the USA or Israel. But currently, they are happy there is an end to the dictatorship they had to endure. Let’s hope they do not get a new one.
