For some people, the question of Israel is controversial. But however we choose to view it, we must acknowledge that in certain areas, Israel performs with remarkable excellence. Who among us would not want Czech counterterrorism units to be as efficient and as respected as their Israeli counterparts? Who would not want young Czechs to participate in the defense of their country with the same sense of duty and enthusiasm as young Israelis? Or for Czech technology companies to be as successful as those in Israel?
For me personally, the crucial fact is this: Israel is the only country within the Western civilizational sphere that has managed to resist Islamization effectively. It has mastered something that no other Western nation has.
One of the key pillars of Israel’s success is its active and carefully managed immigration policy. In Israel,
-
they know exactly what kind of people they want,
-
they are able to attract them from all over the world,
-
they know how to integrate them thoroughly, combining well-calibrated economic support—neither excessive nor insufficient—with a welcoming social environment. Immigrants who follow the rules quickly sense that they are genuinely accepted,
-
and no one else is allowed to enter the country without meeting strict criteria.
Immigration numbers are closely monitored. When arrivals from a particular region decline, newspapers publish serious analyses asking why this is happening, where the problems lie, and what needs to be improved.
Why are we unable to approach migration in the same rational and responsible way?
Because in many European countries, the field has been taken over either by activists who seek to use migration as a tool to dismantle their own nations and replace their native populations, or by corporations that see it merely as a means of depressing wages.
This is a tragic waste of opportunity.
