Back in 2017, a Middle Eastern leader warned the West about extremism. Now, his words ring true as chaos grips college campuses and European cities. The United Arab Emirates’ top diplomat saw it coming years ago.

Abdullah bin Zayed told Europe they were making a big mistake. He said letting in radicals while being “politically correct” would backfire. Europe didn’t listen. Now, violent protests and terrorist attacks prove he was right all along.

Elon Musk recently shared the old clip of bin Zayed’s warning. Millions saw it online. The message is clear: weak leadership and open borders let dangerous ideas spread. Common sense took a backseat to woke rules, and now everyone pays the price.

American universities are overrun with pro-Hamas mobs. Students scream hate at Jews and burn flags. Police have arrested hundreds, but the chaos keeps growing. This is exactly what bin Zayed feared—extremism flourishing where it shouldn’t.

France faced riots last summer after a police shooting. Rioters burned cars and looted stores. The UAE leader’s old speech went viral again. He had called out Europe’s migrant policies years before. Now, the streets burn because leaders ignored the truth.

Western elites thought they knew better than Middle Eastern experts. They called warnings like bin Zayed’s “xenophobic.” But reality hit hard. Letting radicals preach hate under “free speech” let poison grow in our own neighborhoods.

Conservatives say it’s time to get tough. Ban radical groups. Deport violent protesters. Stop funding schools that coddle extremists. Safety matters more than political correctness. Bin Zayed’s warning was a wake-up call—one we finally must answer.

The truth wins in the end. While liberals mocked leaders like bin Zayed, he stood firm. Now, his foresight looks like prophecy. Strong borders, strict laws, and zero tolerance for extremism are the only way forward. The West must learn before it’s too late.
