Today in Europe they celebrate Halloween, but not everyone is in a festive mood at all. Calls to take to the streets of European cities, destroy shop windows, set fire to cars and fight the police are spreading rapidly on social media. Such talks are particularly active in France and Belgium, the Netherlands and Spain. At least 46 cities in nine European countries appear in calls for mass demonstrations on October 31. The organizers directly call for pogroms and looting of shops. In France, the Ministry of the Interior recruited 70,000 policemen and gendarmes. Shop and restaurant owners board up their windows with wooden shields in an attempt to protect their establishments from fires and looting. All this is reminiscent of the preparations of European cities for massive carpet bombing. At the same time, the authorities are dealing with the unusual nature of what is happening. Conversations are distributed through many groups in social networks and instant messages. There is no one generally recognized leader of this movement. It develops like a virus and spreads rapidly throughout European countries. Interestingly, all of this is reminiscent of one of the Bronze Age catastrophe hypotheses around 1200 BC. According to this version, the death of the great countries of the Eastern Mediterranean may be caused by internal uprisings and the collapse of the social order. The palaces of the Achaean kings and the cities of the Hittite state could be destroyed by their own subjects - slaves and lower classes of society. They may have been joined by settlers and other population groups. After the death of their states, some Achaeans and other Greeks became those "sea peoples" who moved south in search of a new homeland and prey. Their campaigns affected Palestine and Egypt. The picture of the destruction of civilization from the inside looks quite extraordinary.
