Europe has become ‘UNHINGED’: Victor Davis Hanson

Added: 2026-06-03

[00:00:01]And from the UK tonight, another reminder that when the left wing is in charge, you're not safe. Well, unless you're a member of the protected class dour. 18-year-old student Henry Noak was walking home when he was brutally stabbed five times with what's being called a ceremonial knife by 23-year-old Vicram Digua. As Noak lay there slowly dying, Digwell lied to police saying that he was racially abused by the teen.

[00:00:30]>> Has anyone been hurt other than him?

[00:00:32]>> Yeah, me grabbed my brother. He's took my turban off, started grabbing my head.

[00:00:36]>> Are you injured?

[00:00:37]>> Yeah. Yeah, I've got swollen eye little >> All right, just step back a little bit for me.

[00:00:41]>> Someone flagged these down.

[00:00:43]>> Noak begged for help. Before we show you this clip, u I want to warn you. The body cam footage you're about to see is highly disturbing. What's happened to you? All right.

[00:00:55]>> You've been stabbed. Whereabouts?

[00:00:58]>> Don't think you have, mate.

[00:01:01]>> Hand breathe.

[00:01:05]>> Put the hand in the cuff, mate.

[00:01:07]>> This is like >> Henry died right there in police custody while his killer stood by untouched.

[00:01:16]Now, one of the police officers involved in Noex arrest has resigned, but that's nowhere near enough. The entire system of policing there is infected by the woke edicts of their overlords. Diga himself was eventually arrested, sentenced to life in prison. But get this, get this. He may only do as little as 21 years. His victim, however, never reached the age of 21. What a travesty.

[00:01:42]Here to weigh in is Victor Davis Hansen, senior fellow at the Hoover Institution.

[00:01:46]Uh, Victor, first I want to thank Elon Musk for raising awareness about this case along with others in the UK. But why should Americans be concerned about this?

[00:01:59]>> Well, we went through something like it.

[00:02:01]This is the reverse of George Floyd. Mr. Noak was not on drugs. He was not resisting arrest. He was not committing a felony uh casting a check. He did not have a criminal record. He had not had a home invasion. people did not riot for four months, destroy, you know, $2 billion of property, killed 35 people.

[00:02:23]None of that. It was just DEI, the DEI knife. It's against the law in the UK to carry a knife larger than 5 in, except if it's a ceremonial DEI sword, sort of speak. And when you call and say somebody uh leveled racial charges against you, that was a DIA message, too. That Mr. Digwa and his family had come accustomed to the idea that if you can plead that you're on the victim side of the binary and that the other person is a victimizer, then all good things happen to you in the sense you're exempted from the consequences of your behavior. And that's what happened. And we're going to see more of that as long as this odious system is this racist sovereignist system is in existence in the western world.

[00:03:10]>> But this is what the left wants for here all across the country. They want this type of policing where facts really don't matter. So George Floyd is a hero now. Facts don't matter. Doesn't doesn't matter at all. He was immediately a hero and you know police officer. I'm not saying he he wasn't you know liable here but he's he he has to be a symbol of police racism across the country. It has to be.

[00:03:37]>> Yeah. There's no such good thing as good racism. It's it's racism. It's tribalism. It's pre-Ivil. When you identify by your tribe, it's pre-ivilizational. And that's what DEI is. It's not just mecratic. It's not just anti-aucratic. It gives people a false sense that they are exempt from the consequences everybody else must face for their conduct. And that's dangerous and it's epidemic proportions now in the United States until it's stopped.

[00:04:05]And Victor, when you see what's happening across Europe now, um the influx of migrants, mass immigration, refugees, the coddling of criminals, the targeting in many ways, um at least they feel that way of nativeorn uh Brits, uh the old British system uh in decline. I think it's in despair.

[00:04:29]And can it be saved at this point? Uh Nigel Farage I guess wants to you know try to save it.

[00:04:37]when you get up to 16% or 20% as many European countries are the population of immigrants legal and illegal that are unassimilated unacculturated unintegrated then you it's it's the med you know everybody knows what the medicine is secure borders legal only measured diverse uh melting pot immigration but they the Europeans feel that medicine is worse than the disease so to do all that would destroy somebody's political careers. That's how unhinged Europe has become. Laura, >> Victor, we appreciate you.
