Is Europe really “too far gone,” or is there still a chance to resist the rise of Islamism and demographic change? In this episode of The Western Spirit, we sit down with Daniel Pipes, a leading scholar on the Middle East, to break down Europe’s future, the decline of radical Islam, and the new face of the Israel–Palestine conflict.Daniel Pipes, founder and president of the Middle East Forum, a think tank that defends Western values, explains why Islamism has already passed its peak, how the collapse of Iran could mark the end of the Islamist era, and why Palestinians have turned propaganda into their strongest weapon against Israel. He also dives into why younger generations in the West are buying into anti-Israel narratives — and what that means for the future of Western society.🔑 What you’ll learn in this episode:Is Europe already lost to immigration and radical Islam?Why Islamism is in decline — but still dangerous in the WestHow Iran’s regime fuels extremism, and what happens if it fallsHow Palestinians reshaped the Israel conflict with propagandaWhy younger generations are more radical than everThis is truly a fascinating discussion.ĺ📌 Support the channel by buying me coffee! ☕️ https://buymeacoffee.com/westernspirit📌 For business inquiries, including advertising opportunities on our show, please email us at: thewesternspiritpodcast@gmail.comChapters00:00Introduction to Dr. Daniel Pipes01:29Europe's Demographic Challenges and Resistance05:44The Internal Debate Within Islam09:56The Rise of Islamism in the West14:50The Iranian Crisis and Its Implications27:33Turkey's Role in the Middle East33:29The Rise of Anti-Semitism in the U.S.49:08Conclusion and Future Considerations
