Iranian Missiles Hit Europe: Europe Does Nothing

Iran's Islamist regime has never made a secret of its ambitions. Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, who seized power following the overthrow of Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi and established the Islamic Republic of Iran in 1979, said: "We shall export our revolution to the whole world. Until the cry 'There is no god but Allah' resounds over the whole world, there will be struggle."
Ignoring the warning signs will only make the price Europe pays even higher.
The question is, how much more aggression will Europe tolerate before it recognizes the full extent of the threat?
How come Europeans do not seem as distressed about the deaths of civilians in Ukraine as in Lebanon and Gaza?
All the EU seems to do is issue statements of condemnation against Israel, which is sacrificing the lives of its people to save these sanctimonious ingrates.
The first step should be to formally designate Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and its elite Quds Force as terrorist organizations. This would send a powerful signal that Europe is no longer willing to tolerate Iran's military and ideological expansion, and it would empower law enforcement across the continent to act decisively against Iranian operatives.
Europe should also take a bold step of shutting down all Iranian embassies and consulates on its soil.
Europe should sever all trade relations with Iran. Every euro that flows into Iran is likely being funneled into Tehran's military machine and its support for Russia's war in Ukraine.
The EU also needs to be prepared to form a coalition to back up its words with military action. Continuing to sit passively while Iranian missiles and drones rain down on a European nation is not a strategy; it is a surrender
If Europe finds itself too hesitant to confront the Iranian regime directly, it should at the very least stand by those who are fighting the Iranian regime and its proxies. Israel has taken the lead in confronting Iranian aggression in the Middle East. Rather than undermining Israel for defending itself and the West against Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran, the EU should do everything it can support these heroes. Abandoning Israel while it fights Iranian-backed terror only weakens Europe and plays into the hands of everyone working to bring it down.
By responding with empty words as Iranian missiles hit European soil, the EU is essentially green-lighting Tehran to escalate its aggression. The lessons of Nazi Germany are there for everyone to see.
The time has come for Europe to support those risking their lives to take down this terror regime before they get a nuclear bomb.
Most grateful of all would be the people of Iran.
