European Union looks unserious about a real internal threat.

One of President Trump’s most controversial
foreign-policy initiatives—withdrawing from President Obama’s nuclear-arms deal
with Iran—is heating up again.
On Tuesday Denmark announced it had interrupted
an Iranian plot to carry out assassinations of Iranian dissidents on Danish
soil. This comes as the Trump Administration is planning to announce wider
sanctions against Iran next week.
Recall Europe’s reaction after Mr. Trump
withdrew the U.S. from the nuclear deal in May. The European Union not only
denounced Mr. Trump’s decision but has vowed since to restore its economic
relationship with Iran. Europe’s Iran policy is looking other-worldly.
In July, Germany foiled another Iranian plot to
bomb dissidents in Paris. Press reports said then that Western intelligence
services were concerned about the possibility of Iran stepping up terrorist
attacks in Europe and the U.S.
Denmark wants the EU to impose new sanctions on
Iran. Federica Mogherini, the EU’s pro-Iran foreign-policy chief, replied
blandly that “we are following events.”
Even as Iranian hit squads are setting up shop
across the Continent, the European Union is displaying a fundamental lack of
seriousness about a country uninterested in distinctions between bombs,
missiles and assassinations.
