Europe is facing growing unrest as political leaders continue to dismiss public concerns over immigration, crime, and social cohesion. Victor Davis Hanson examines the backlash spreading across Britain and the continent, the dangers of tribal politics, and why many citizens are losing confidence in their governing elites. He also discusses Iran’s ongoing confrontation with the West, Hamas’ use of civilian institutions in Gaza, and the troubling state of higher education as universities struggle with declining academic standards, administrative bloat, and ideological conformity. From foreign policy to immigration to the future of Western institutions, Hanson argues that leadership failures are producing consequences that can no longer be ignored.
