As European cities burn, is public opinion shifting towards supporting Israel?

Veteran Israeli journalist Eldad Beck joins host Danny Seaman—former senior official at the Israeli Prime Minister’s Office—for a deep dive into Europe’s evolving stance on Israel, antisemitism and the legacy of the Holocaust.

Currently based in Austria and reporting for The Jerusalem Post, Eldad Beck brings decades of firsthand experience covering Europe’s political and cultural climate. Together, Seaman and Beck discuss the growing disconnect between Western European governments and their increasingly sympathetic publics, seen in surprising moments like Israel's Eurovision success. They contrast this with the rising support for Israel among Central and Eastern European nations like Hungary and Czechia—countries that view EU policy as a new form of ideological coercion.

Beck also explains how mass Middle Eastern immigration has shifted European perceptions of the Israeli-Arab conflict, and how sovereigntist political movements are aligning with Israel’s right to defend itself. The conversation explores French President Macron’s leftward turn, the collapse of European moral clarity and the myth of international legitimacy in wartime. Beck argues that Israel must stop seeking global approval and instead prioritize fear and respect over affection—because, as he puts it, "nations act on interests, not emotions."
