European Immigration Crisis

9 min readUpdated Jan 20, 2026Loading...

Overview

The Pax Judaica framework interprets the 2015 European migrant crisis—and ongoing immigration flows—not as an unintended consequence of Middle Eastern conflicts but as a deliberate strategy to destabilize European societies. According to this view, the "War on Terror" created refugee flows that were then directed into Europe to weaken nation-states and prepare the ground for a new global order.

This article examines the documented facts of the crisis, the framework's interpretation, and alternative explanations.

Key Events

2015 timeline:3

  • January-August: Increasing arrivals via Mediterranean and Balkans
  • September: Angela Merkel announces "Wir schaffen das" (We can do this)
  • September: Photo of drowned toddler Alan Kurdi galvanizes public sympathy
  • October-December: Over 800,000 arrive in Germany alone
  • EU struggles with distribution; borders close

The Framework's Interpretation

Professor Jiang's Claims

The lecture connects immigration to the broader conspiracy:

"The war on terror, you send these millions of refugees from Libya, Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq into Europe, which is causing a lot of conflict in Europe. Why would that happen? Well, for Pax Judaica to come into being, you need to destroy the world."
"All this war on terror, what it does is it creates all these millions of migrants to Europe, which is destabilizing European society."

The Alleged Plan

According to the framework:

  • Create wars in Middle East/North Africa (Iraq, Libya, Syria, Afghanistan)4
  • Generate refugees as inevitable consequence
  • Direct them to Europe rather than regional absorption
  • Destabilize European societies through cultural conflict
  • Weaken nation-states to prepare for global governance
  • Create need for surveillance to manage resulting chaos
  • Angela Merkel's Role

    The lecture implies Merkel's open-door policy was not humanitarian but conspiratorial:

    "Angela Merkel, who is the leader of Europe at this time... she says, we can do this, guys. We can do this and it has become a dumpster fire, okay? And like guys in 2015 everyone knew this was gonna happen."

    The "No Accountability" Claim

    "At no point did Europeans say, screw you, America, you did this to us. At no point."

    The framework finds it suspicious that European leaders didn't blame the US for creating the refugee-generating conflicts.

    Documented Facts

    War as Refugee Driver

    The connection between Western military interventions and refugee flows is documented:5

    ConflictRefugees Generated (approx.)

    Iraq War (2003+)4+ million displaced
    Libya (2011+)800,000+ displaced
    Syria (2011+)13+ million displaced
    Afghanistan (2001+)6+ million displaced

    This causal link is widely acknowledged, including by critics of intervention.6

    Europe's Unpreparedness

    IssueDocumented

    Lack of coordinated EU policy✓ Yes7
    Dublin Regulation failures✓ Yes
    Border state overwhelm (Greece, Italy)✓ Yes
    Integration challenges✓ Yes8
    Rise of anti-immigration politics✓ Yes9

    Social Tensions

    Post-2015 developments:

    • Rise of AfD (Germany), National Rally (France), other populist parties9
    • Debates over integration, crime statistics, cultural values8
    • Terror attacks by individuals with refugee/migrant backgrounds
    • Counter-protests and polarization

    Critical Analysis

    What's Documented

    ClaimStatus

    Western wars caused refugee displacement✓ Clearly documented5
    Refugees flowed to Europe✓ Clearly documented1
    This caused social/political tension✓ Clearly documented9
    European policy was inadequate✓ Widely acknowledged7
    Some predicted these consequences✓ Yes6

    What's Speculative

    ClaimStatus

    Refugee flows were deliberately planned✗ No evidence
    Destabilization was the goal✗ Speculation
    Merkel was part of conspiracy✗ No evidence
    Connected to Pax Judaica plan✗ Unsubstantiated
    "No one blamed America"✗ Actually, many did6

    The Gap Between Cause and Intent

    Key distinction:

    • Documented: Wars cause refugees; refugees went to Europe; this caused problems
    • Speculative: Therefore, the problems were the purpose

    One can acknowledge the causal chain without concluding it was deliberately designed.

    Alternative Explanations

    Why Wars Happened (Without Conspiracy)

    ConflictMainstream Explanation

    IraqWMD claims (false); neoconservative ideology; 9/11 response10
    Libya"Responsibility to Protect"; Arab Spring; French/British interests11
    SyriaCivil war dynamics; regional proxy conflict; no unified Western policy12
    Afghanistan9/11 response; Taliban harboring Al-Qaeda13

    These explanations involve ideology, miscalculation, and competing interests—not unified conspiracy.

    Why Refugees Went to Europe

    • Geographic proximity: Closer than Americas or East Asia
    • Existing diaspora: Family/community networks
    • Economic opportunity: Stronger economies than regional alternatives14
    • Human rights framework: Asylum obligations
    • Smuggler networks: Developed routes15

    Why Merkel Opened the Border

    Explanations offered:16

  • Humanitarian: Genuine moral response to crisis
  • Legal: Germany couldn't legally refuse asylum seekers
  • Political: Misjudged public tolerance
  • Economic: Germany's demographic decline; need for workers
  • European pressure: Hungary, others, refusing to accept quotas
  • These don't require conspiracy—just a mix of values, miscalculation, and political dynamics.

    Why Limited US Blame

    Actually, many Europeans did blame US:6

    • Widespread opposition to Iraq War (2003 protests were largest in history)
    • European leaders criticized Libya intervention aftermath
    • Academic/journalistic analysis regularly cites US role

    But also:

    • European countries participated in these wars
    • Blame doesn't solve immediate crisis
    • Domestic politics focused on immediate response

    The "Cui Bono" Question

    Who Benefits from Immigration Chaos?

    Framework answer: Globalist elites seeking to destroy nation-states

    Alternative beneficiaries:

    • Anti-immigration politicians (electoral gains)9
    • Smuggling networks (billions in profit)15
    • Some employers (cheap labor)
    • Media (dramatic stories)

    Who loses:

    • Refugees themselves (dangerous journeys, precarious status)
    • Receiving communities (strained services)
    • Origin countries (brain drain)
    • Mainstream politicians (loss of control narrative)

    The distribution of costs and benefits is complex, not clearly favoring any single conspiracy.

    The Libya Example

    Professor Jiang's Reference

    "These societies, look at Libya was once a middle class, prosperous society, and now you have these slave markets. You got these millions of Africans who are sold as slaves in Libya. It is anarchy now."

    What Happened in Libya

    Documented:11

    • 2011: NATO intervention supporting rebels against Gaddafi
    • Gaddafi killed; no stable government established
    • Country fractured into competing militias
    • Migrant detention centers with documented abuses17
    • Route through Libya to Europe became major pathway

    The intervention's consequences were indeed catastrophic. Many analysts across the political spectrum have criticized it.

    Was It Planned?

    Framework view: Destruction was the goal

    Alternative view:11

    • Intervention was poorly planned, not maliciously planned
    • "Responsibility to Protect" doctrine was genuinely believed
    • Post-intervention planning was inadequate
    • Unintended consequences ≠ intended consequences

    The Destabilization Question

    Does Immigration Destabilize?

    Arguments that it can:8

    • Rapid demographic change strains services
    • Cultural differences can create friction
    • Economic competition for jobs/housing
    • Security concerns if screening is inadequate

    Arguments against overstatement:

    • Most immigrants integrate over time
    • Economic contributions can outweigh costs
    • Crime statistics are often misrepresented
    • Native population also commits crimes

    Balanced view: Immigration creates challenges that can be managed well or poorly. Poor management creates problems; good management mitigates them.

    Is "Destabilization" Evidence of Intent?

    The logical problem:

  • If immigration causes problems, it was planned
  • If immigration doesn't cause problems, the plan is working (sleeper cells, long-term change)
  • No outcome falsifies the theory
  • This is unfalsifiable reasoning.18

    Discussion Questions

  • How do we distinguish legitimate critique of intervention consequences from conspiracy theory?
  • Can policymakers be blamed for unintended consequences?
  • Does acknowledging that immigration creates challenges validate conspiracy theories?
  • What would distinguish "deliberate destabilization" from "policy failure"?
  • Further Reading

    This article examines the European immigration crisis through the Pax Judaica framework lens. The connection between Western interventions and refugee flows is documented; the claim that destabilization was deliberately planned is speculative.
