I agree with the above. Basically, it's not about European tourists afraid of Middle East airport transfers and Iranian actions. It's about money. It's about the world economy. It's about where can I can I go with the money and time that I have. Yes, they could take direct flights or flights that use other transfer points - but they are not hugely more expensive - that's a lame excuse. So it's something else. Money, time, best value for money. Maybe they've been to Thailand so let's go somewhere else. After all, China, Australia, Russians, North American travelers - none of them need to travel through the ME to get here.
