At any rate, do such Frenchmen exist today?>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
You bet. Buut the problem is thaey have been surplanted by French socialitas, those who originate with the Vichy French government of WWII.The left in France are anti Jew,and they welcome demographic invasion with open arms, and believe in hstoric justice for the sins committed by France during the colonial era.
The people of France need to drop these Vichy asshats who run the country and bring back those who administrators and command people who support the French Foreign Legion..
It is noteworthy that a substantial French Foreign Legion detachment is posted in Corsica, and they would be helping the Cosicans fight the goat humpers, no doubt.

We are fighting a different enemy: It is not enough to simply kill them, we must get in the mud with them.....appeal to their superstitions and defile their corpses.
I’m reminded of the movie McClintock where Drago threatens to cut off Ching’s pigtail .....actually Ching was a good guy, so....

LOL!
And never forget the French Resistance. Whether such people exist in France today is a good question.
There is more information about them here http://irbf.org.uk/knights-templar-international-an-analysis/ (IRBF is a left wing organization, but this info is most likely correct)
History shows this is just the next step in this Islamic war their religion demands. Of course groups will form to give it back to them even worse until they are stopped.
When I visited Poland, I was told that Poland is the only country that has a statue honoring Napoleon.
And of course he’s mentioned in the Polish National Anthem, because he did help create the Grand Duchy of Warsaw.
“At any rate, do such Frenchmen exist today?”
I don’t know about the men, but at least one woman is trying to follow in the footsteps of Joan of Arc:

I think the French rev was a mistake in many ways and it, along with the partitions of Poland aroudn the same time lead to WWI and WWII and the holocaust.
Also, Napoleon was a slimebag to the Poles - promising but never delivering and ready to sell them out at the first chance.
However, he was a great general, no doubt about that and did give an example of how you can marshal your resources well
At times I don’t understand it either. But despite all his many faults, he was a superlative general who seemed to create something out of nothing - like Genghis Khan
I just read a biographical novel on John Adams. He apparently was a strong component of our tripartite form of government— Executive (President), Legislative (Congress), and Judiciary (Supreme Court). He felt their strengths should be balanced to prevent one from having total power. He had strong criticisms of the government being organized as an outgrowth of the French Revolution and thought it would fail. It did end up in Napoleon’s dictatorship, and many years of poor governance.
The French have a monarchical presidency - the President is an elected monarch and far more powerful in the country than the US President (due to the checks and balances and the decentralization) or the German Chancellor (as there is the ceremonial president and also the heavy decentralization) and even the British PM (who is quite powerful as the queen is basically a rubber stamp)
I just wish Hulagu Khan had effectively wiped out Islam (he destroyed Baghdad and the CAliph and could have easily leveled Mecca and Medina)
To be honest I think the Mongols would have run wild throughout all of Europe. Good point about Islam. The Mongols should have finished wiping it out. Unfortunately, some of the Mongols eventually converted to the moon God.
