Ceuta and the Israeli Factor in Europe’s Growing Political Crisis

When tens of thousands of Moroccans crossed into the Spanish-controlled enclave of Ceuta in North Africa, many analysts were reminded of a statement made in 2019 by Yair, the son of Benjamin Mileikowsky (Netanyahu).

Yair’s remark, made seven-year-ago, was followed by a more subtle hint from the zionist representative to the United Nations, Danny Danon.

As the implications of these public remarks began attracting attention, zionist propaganda quickly moved to dismiss any suggestion of Israeli involvement as a “conspiracy theory”.

Yet the Ceuta crisis raised broader and more fundamental questions.

The most notable observations came from one of Europe’s leading liberal thinkers, Bruno Maçães.

Writing on his widely followed Twitter account, Maçães argued: “I don’t know if people are being dishonest or are just ignorant, but no, in Morocco 70,000 people do not organize and assemble spontaneously and without advance knowledge from the security services.”

The significance of the Ceuta episode becomes even clearer when viewed in light of subsequent statements by the indicted war criminal Benjamin Mileikowsky (Netanyahu).

On September 15, 2025, Mileikowsky was compelled to publicly acknowledge the unprecedented political and economic pressure confronting the zionist entity.

Yet the most revealing aspect of his remarks was not his admission of mounting pressure, but rather his explanation for why that pressure exists.

As reported by Ynet News in 2025, Mileikowsky argued that Muslim migration to Europe had created a “significant and vocal minority” capable of influencing European governments on issues related to Gaza.

“They deny Zionism,” Netanyahu said, adding that this influence was driving sanctions and restrictions against Israel while limiting its ability to import key weapons components.

It is not by accident that one of the most fascist socio-political groupings in Europe, from Tommy Robinson to Austria’s Freedom Party (FPO) are zionist allies.

Israel has adopted the fascist anti-Muslim framework as its grand political strategy against Muslims in Europe.

The Ceuta crisis, which could not have taken place without knowledge of the pro-zionist dictatorship in Morocco should first and foremost ring alarm bells among the European political establishment and the wider society.

The ability to mobilize tens of thousands of people to destabilize Europe’s most anti-zionist government—Spain—constitutes a serious breach of political security.

Dismissing it as simply a stunt by an incompetent Moroccan regime indebted to its foreign patrons for staying in power is shallow at best.

However, expecting Europe’s political elite to think beyond the tabloid narrative is futile—a notion hinted at by Bruno Maçães in his recent article for the New Statesman, where he pointed out that:

“It did not seem to matter that the scene on Ceuta’s shores invited questions of an entirely different order—European capitals were in no mood for thinking.

“They shrieked incoherently and publicly about the coming Armageddon, and the need to enter doomsday prepper mode.

“Here, they announced, was the prophesied invasion: the unwashed masses of Africa and the Middle East, arriving at last, to vindicate every fevered pamphlet and every midnight broadcast of the far right.

“Not to be outdone, Reform’s Robert Jenrick announced that ‘these men are on their way to Calais’.

“Elon Musk pronounced it a ‘zombie apocalypse’, an aside so execrable it achieved the rare feat of lowering a discourse already conducted in the gutter.”

The Ceuta crisis is another indication that prioritising Israel’s strategic political narratives is going to cost the EU dearly.

European political elites detached from average citizens refuse to understand that allowing Israel to foster an anti-Muslim political climate in Europe means destabilization of Europe itself.

They will not be able to avoid the consequences of such destabilization.
