Israel wants civil war in Europe

In a candid radio appearance this week, Israel's Diaspora Affairs Minister Amichai Chikli made startling revelations about his government's strategic outreach to Europe's extreme political factions. The minister not only defended these controversial partnerships but also suggested that the ascendance of far-right/neo-Nazi parties could lead to unprecedented social upheaval, warning that the continent might witness "internal conflicts" as these movements gain political traction. Chikli's praise of the far-right rival of Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, a major supporter of pro-Palestinian politics in Europe, further strengthened claims of Israeli support following the migrant provocation in Ceuta.

Support for the most Zionist Spaniard

Chikli, who singled out Vox Party leader Santiago Abascal for praise in Spain, described him as the "most Zionist voice" in the country today. Highlighting Abascal’s pro-Israel stance and his opposition to terrorism and Hamas, Chikli noted that a "genuine affinity" had developed between Vox and Israel. Regarding France, Chikli drew attention to the relationship established with leading figures of the National Rally party, Marine Le Pen and Jordan Bardella. The Israeli minister argued that the political consequences of this close rapport were already becoming apparent, noting that these movements were surging in public opinion polls.

Are the primary targets England and France?

In his assessment of the political transformation in Europe, Chikli stated, "It may sound crazy, but we could see civil wars in Europe." Chikli indicated that the rise of the right in Europe would lead to significant political changes, making provocative statements suggesting that Europe, particularly in the UK and France, was heading towards "very profound changes," and that these changes could also bring about counter-reactions.

Praise for an anti-Islam figure

Touching upon far-right movements in the UK, Chikli described his relationship with far-right leader Tommy Robinson. Noting that Robinson had been brought to Israel, Chikli stated that many people in the UK share the same stance as Israel. Tens of thousands of people had participated in an anti-immigrant and anti-Islam demonstration held in London in September 2025 at Robinson’s call. The demonstration was one of the largest mass actions organized by the far-right in the UK in recent years.

If only there were more Netanyahus

Geert Wilders, leader of the Dutch Party for Freedom (PVV), represents another example of the close ties between Israel and Europe’s far right. Following a visit to Israel in July to show his support, Wilders appeared on a television program and praised Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, stating, "I wish we had more Benjamin Netanyahus in Europe."

Hostility towards Islam: The common denominator

Chikli’s statements have once again brought to the fore the ties the blood-stained Israeli government has cultivated with far-right parties in Europe—a development occurring at a time when political and social movements supporting Palestine are gaining momentum across the continent. The Israeli government builds its relationships with these European parties primarily around support for Israel and opposition to both Islam and the Palestinian cause. Chikli notes that the connections established with neo-Nazi groups in Europe have moved beyond mere diplomatic contact and have evolved into a genuine political affinity.

Ceuta provocation raises concerns

Observers are now revisiting the late July incident in Ceuta, where over 60,000 migrants reached the Spanish enclave within 24 hours, an operation Spanish officials linked to Israeli provocation. Chikli's recent admissions have reinforced suspicions that the Ceuta event may have been a coordinated operation between Israel and its European far-right allies, marking a dangerous escalation of their partnership. The Israeli establishment and its American supporters subsequently targeted Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez's government, while European far-right leaders called for Spain's removal from the Schengen Area.
