France Is Not a Western Country Anymore

French-bashing is everywhere in the American media. I am French, and I must say if Americans knew completely what's happening in France, the French-bashing would be far harsher.

Jacques Chirac has been a friend of Saddam Hussein for more than thirty years. He allowed the sale of nuclear facilities to Iraq that were destroyed just in time by Israël. He sold Iraq the planes that were been used to gas thousands of Kurds. And Saddam is not the only friend Chirac has. Chirac has never met a ruthless dictator he did not like. Worse, Chirac is unprincipled and greedy. It is common knowledge in France that he stole a lot of money when he was the mayor of Paris, and everyone knows that if he had not been re-elected in May 2002, he would be in jail now. To hear him speaking about morality or international law nauseates every decent Frenchman.

And Chirac is not the only politician of this stripe in France. These days, it is becoming hard to find a French politician ready to speak about human rights, freedom or democracy. All of them seem to have the same speechwriter or to belong to the same totalitarian political party; all of them are anti-American, anti-Israeli and "pacifists." They regard Western civilization as something filthy and abhorrent.

If you read the newspapers, it's the same. At times it seems the only difference between the Soviet Union twenty years ago and France today is that in Soviet Union you had only one Pravda, and in France you now have at least ten such propaganda outlets: Different titles, same content. Their party line is clear in reporting on the personalities found in the present Middle Eastern crisis. Saddam Hussein, the "President of Iraq"? Well, maybe he has been brutal, but you know, in "those" countries... George W. Bush? He’s a "moron" - a former alcoholic, who has become a crazy fanatic, in fact the most dangerous man on the face of earth. Ariel Sharon? A fascist who loves to kill Arabs. Arafat? A great freedom fighter. When an American general speaks, it is merely propaganda, but when Tariq Aziz pontificates, it is pure truth. Almost everyday you hear anti-Semitic remarks, to boot.

The anti-Semitism has created a threat to the physical safety for French Jews. Almost every week, some Jews get mugged, simply for being Jews. Almost nobody pays attention to it. When an anti-Semitic act is so disgusting it is impossible to hide it, journalists will speak of "confrontation between communities." When confronted with the reality that these "confrontations" are always Muslims attacking Jews, the editorial response: "Just because there has yet to be a single documented case of a Jew attacking a Muslim yet doesn't mean it will never happen. . . ."

And Jews are not the only victims of France's new identification with radical Islam. In many French cities with a growing radical Islamist population, no teenage girl can go out in the evening, at least not without a full burqa. If she does, it will mean that "she is for everybody": in short, a whore. In the same cities, every teenage girl - regardless of religion - has to wear the Muslim veil if she does not want to be harassed or killed. Almost every month, a young woman is mugged and raped in a suburb of a big city. Gang rape has become so frequent that a new word, used by the rapists themselves to define their hideous actions, is used by everybody: tournantes (revolving). To the rapists, the woman is nothing, a mere object to be thrown away after use. The people who speak about "revolving" seem to forget a human being is involved as the victim. Policemen do nothing. Every decent person knows the problem is Islam, but no one dares to say it. It could be dangerous. The streets are not safe.

One year ago, a French Muslim decided to create a new business: he was tired of seeing people drinking Coca-Cola - all this money going to Americans! He found a factory and started to produce Mecca Cola. On the label, he put a picture of the Al Aqsa mosque, with a large part of his profits would help to support the Palestinian cause. In some suburbs of Paris, Coca-Cola has disappeared; Mecca Cola has replaced it. A few days ago, another Muslim businessman announced he will start to sell Muslim-Up. It will have the taste of Sprite or Seven-Up, but it will be a Muslim drink - and naturally the profits will go to the Palestinian jihad, as well.

Three radio stations in France are Muslim radio stations, and if you listen to them, dedicated to broadcasting the voice of hate and racism all day long. One radio station belongs to a friend of the rightist Jean-Marie Le Pen, and curiously, if you listen to it, you will hear the same voice of hate and racism. Rightists and radical Muslims have discovered they have many things in common.

If you want to understand why all this is happening, you have to understand one thing: thirty years ago, French governments started to have a new foreign policy. They called this new policy, "Arabian Policy." France became closer to Arab countries - all of them disgusting dictatorships. France "benefited" by doing business easily in these countries. In exchange, France had to push Europe to unknot its ties with Israël and the United States. In exchange too, "professors" came from the Arabian dictatorships to teach the Arabic language to the young Arabs living in France. The only book they used to teach the Arabic language was THE book, Al Kuran.

Now comes the time to pay the check: six million Muslims live in France, at least ten per cent of them are radical Islamists poised on the edge of violence. And these radical Muslims have allies on both the extreme Left and the extreme Right. France is not a Western country anymore, it is now the leader of the Arab/Muslim world. Israel has to know France is its main enemy. The United States has to understand they have nothing to expect from today's France except nastiness, treason, and cheating.

I was tryin to link to this cool image.

[Semaphore Heathcliffe]

bump. If you want your kids to see Western heritage in Europe firsthand, take them sooner than later.

[PoisedWoman]

Horrifying. I'm sending this to some Franch-loving friends.

[kallisti]

didn't i read this in "camp of the saints"?

[Gefreiter]

Don't be too surprised. There is a HUGE Muslim population in France, primarily of North African extraction but Arabic speaking and Muslim nonetheless. They breed like rodents and overall quite young.

This youth has a hobby: stealing cars, driving them to remote areas, and setting them on fire. Or cracking open parking meters and stealing. In broad daylight. Gendarmes ignore them.

Chirac's pro-Saddam stance serves to get this population on his side while gaining cred with the anti-American elements in French govt. Supporting Saddam was a win-win for Chirac. Maybe not so hot for the rest of the country.

[Between the Lines]

Chirac and Awww

[JoeSchem]

didn't i read this in "camp of the saints"?

I read that book in the seventies and thought it was outrageously sensationalistic. (Note the use of past tense in previous sentence.)

[konaice]

Bump.
This article needs to be read and posted on every forum freepers frequent. This is just one of many such alarming articles about the downfall of France.

Is Europe ready for the stream of french refugees that will result when this country finally tips over the edge into the abyss ??

[gaijin]

A great article, but I find it *EXTREMELY* difficult to believe that French right-wingers are happy about Muslims flooding into their country.

I'll sooner prove able to leap over the moon than to believe that claim.

[sonofatpatcher2]

"Hey, Jim, do you know why the French are so pissed at the US?"
"No, Bones, why are they?"

"Its because Jean-Luc Picard didn't speak with a French accent!"
Bada Bang! Bada Bing!

Want a break from war news? Go to the Stark Trek Freeper Post or the New Stark Trek Website for a laugh or two. Then come back refreshed and loaded for bear!

[KMG365]

Whenever I hear of the vested interest that France has in keeping Saddam in power, i.e. the billions in trade, I think, "What about France's trade with the US? It has got to be more valuable than Iraqi business, many times over.

It just doesn't make sense.

[gorush]

I spent most of 1977 in Western Europe. I noticed then how many complaints were coming from the Germans, French and British regarding the number of muslims (mostly Turks then) that appeared to be over-running their countries.

[Beck_isright]

"Their party line is clear in reporting on the personalities found in the present Middle Eastern crisis. Saddam Hussein, the "President of Iraq"?

The quote the infuriates me even more against the Frogs. And they think we will fold up and not boycott the scum. God we should have let the Nazis keep Belgium and France and ended the war by demanding withdrawl from everywhere else.

Seems to me the assets of these two "entrepreneurs" could be frozen?!

Disgusting. It seems Europe has forgotten the evils of Fascism, and it is creeping back as Islamofascism.

[lilylangtree]

And France likes to consider itself a leader of the civilized world? What a joke!

[NotJustAnotherPrettyFace]

Oil. Three-letter word - oil. The contracts that France and Russia want with Iraq are EXTREMELY lucrative. And don't forget about the military/scientific tools that have been sold either.

[NotJustAnotherPrettyFace]

And that was twenty-five years ago! Imagine how the Muslim population has burgeoned since then!

[Jack Black]

The second ammendment is an all purpose pallative. Long before a sick term like 'revolving' takes home these Moslem girls (!) should be given hand gun training. Let them teach their cousins etiquette and the original meaning of 'revolving' from the barrel of a .357.

[fella]

Did all these franco-pols attend our public schools and go to our state run highe education system? If so, I can understand their actions.

[IvanT]

And that was twenty-five years ago! Imagine how the Muslim population has burgeoned since then!

This is not B.S. I have a friend, beautiful young French girl (can't hold it against the ladies now, can you) she is from Marseille, France. Her entire family has left their homeland for here (Canada) because they were being heavily persecuted by Muslims - in her own home town at that! It was so bad, that they were driven out! Believe it, France is doomed. England is starting to have similar problems, but the Brits won't put up with it, they didn't defend their island only to lose it to Muslims. England will have a race war.

[gorush]

It would appear that there is a lesson in there somewhere. It's a shame that we haven't learned in time either.

[truthkeeper]

Disgusting and scary. Should be bumped and e-mailed to all. BTTT

[Semaphore Heathcliffe]

es verdad

[kallisti]

past tense noted with agreement. i reread it last summer, it's no longer so outrageous.

[gorush]

c'set la guerre

[nanny]

AS I was reading the article, I did see a parallel between what went on in France and what is going on in this country.

We have Muslims who are evidently very influential - they have quite a lot of access to the White House and to Congress. The have their own schools and publishing houses. They established mosques and charities to send money to terrorists.
In a very few years, we have come from arresting Christian children praying around a flagpole before the start of school to special rooms in school for the Muslim children to pray during the day.
Don't forget that Saddam probably could not have gotten the power he did without our aid. Didn't we continue to buy oil from him?

Aren't we bending over backwards so we don't insult the Saudis?
Rather than the fun, but total uselessness, of bashing France, we should be asking some very hard questions of our politicians, at all levels. I am not sure most people have the courage to do that. IT would be admitting perhaps politicians,e ven the ones we like, are not acting in the best interest of the US.

None of this would happen if France would pass National Hate-Crimes laws...

[EaglesUpForever]

Yes, and gun control, and knife registration...

[aristeides]

Bump.

[CaptainK]

Don't forget the ban on cigarettes.

[mtbopfuyn]

I heard the same from Germany in '91.

[pepsi_junkie]

The owner/chef at a couple of the finest restaurants in Philadelphia, Mr. George Perrier, is a Frenchman who came to America as a young man and became a US Citizen. He was being interviewed on a local radio show about a month ago to provide some French perspective on the schism between the two nations. I guess they expected him to be sympathetic to the French side but he was adamently pro-USA and said that the French government has become the lapdog of the muslims. He said they are terrified of them. It sure is now looking like France was conquered a startling three times in the 20th century.

Barbarians at the Gate by Dalrymple...worth reading again

[ILBBACH]

BUMP

[monkeywrench]

"A great article, but I find it *EXTREMELY* difficult to believe that French right-wingers are happy about Muslims flooding into their country."

What is deemed 'right' in europe, is what we commonly refer to as the 'left' here.

[Stultis]

Yeah, but the French were honorless, undependable backstabbers long before they acquired their muslim population.

[Smedley]

God we should have let the Nazis keep Belgium and France and ended the war by demanding withdrawl from everywhere else.

France has gone down the pooper

Imagine when Americans would think that Nazism was a step up from the current French government.

[demosthenes the elder]

I do not know how much of this is accurate, or how accurate.
I simply cannot believe it, without extensive independent corroboration.

[mondonico]

Thanks for the item about Georges Perrier. I'm a Philadelphia native recently returned to the city, and I'm glad our premier restauranteur is on board.

[mondonico]

"Barbarians at the Gate by Dalrymple...worth reading again"

Thanks. I had not seen that. Very, very scary.

[Nebr FAL owner]

In a word NO!!! The Poles ,Czechs ,the rest of Eastern Europeans will have to hold the line cause it won't be the Western Europeans who have been importing the "guest workers " for years.

[Nebr FAL owner]

While defeating the Nazi's was a thing that needed doing why did we have to give France back to the French? Unthinking stupidity is the only answer that can explain it .

[rightwingbob]

Amen. We should be boycotting the Iraqi oil rather than French Bordeaux wine.

[Dark Wing]

A Frenchman is stating the obvious has occured.

[Nebr FAL owner]

It's not muslim girls that get raped in Europe by muslims it is NON-MUSLIM women/girls that are subject to this as they are considered infidels & since they dress in the western fashion as opposed to being a woman of cover they are viewed by muslim males as nothing more than whores free to used & abused as often as a muslim wants.

[swampfox98]

America needs to ditch France, Germany and Russia and make an alliance with the nations who have helped us win this war. The eastern Europeans are knowledgable about dictators, and would be good alies. Get rid of NATO and form a new union with those friendly to America.

[Nebr FAL owner]

Barbarians at the gates of Paris : I just read this & to put it bluntly if the rest of Western Europe doesn't get it's act together they will go the way of France the first european country to accept sharia law . The savages are going to be running things & it's gonna get extaordinarly ugly!
