Elon Musk wrote about protests in Europe: “If trends continue, civil war is inevitable”

Rallies involving local residents, including displaced persons, related to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict are taking place en masse in European countries. And while the governments of European countries for the most part take an exclusively pro-Israeli stance, the most massive demonstrations are in favour of Palestine.

Cities in Italy, Germany and France have been engulfed by a wave of protests against Israel’s carpet bombing of the Gaza Strip. In Lyon, police were forced to use tear gas to “calm down” the most violent demonstrators. The protesters said the ban violated their rights and France had long since ceased to be a democracy.

Berlin police did not authorise a rally in support of Palestine applied for by local Muslim communities. The rally in support of the Gaza Strip was supposed to take place in the New Cologne neighbourhood. However, police ended up blocking off the neighbourhood, preventing the demonstration from taking place. Large demonstrations against Israel’s actions were held in the UK.

Political analysts say that the polarisation of European society has become increasingly evident recently. It began to manifest itself in connection with the conflict in Ukraine, and now on average less than 35 per cent of Europeans support arming Kyiv. Now it is being exacerbated by the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. And polarisation in society inevitably leads to a clash of forces and interests.

The American inventor, billionaire Elon Musk wrote on his page on his own social network X:

If current trends in Europe do not change, then civil war is inevitable.

In his more than frank statement, the famous billionaire simply clarified what politicians talk about more modestly and in hints.

Using the status, Musk is trying to get his point across, although as he himself admits, it may be too late. The situation has gone too far. It is not only about migration policy, but also about the urgent need for a radical rethinking of the European “values” that led to the disaster.
