Per your concerns about the next parliamentary election: Keep the islamic threat front and center, and keep reminding those around you of what you are fighting to keep.
FWIW I have not been a France-basher. As an avocational pianist how can I slander the nation that influenced so many geniuses who wrote much of my repertoire?
The French Boycott is over!
Pray for W and Our Freedom Fighters
The coming elections will revolve around more domestic issues, and I don’t think Islamic threat will play a great role.
Terrorism is a no-brainer here : nobody wants it, either at home or abraod. Just ask Carlos or the guys who wanted to crash a plane on Paris, or the group that was killed to the last man in 1995 after a short-lived bombing campaign.
As for Arab immigrants, many of them came from Algeria where Islamist terrorism had killed many more Arabs than Westerners over the last decade, are not into Islamofascism either, believe me. Too many have had parents killed or wounded by the GIA thugs in the “old country” to look very kindly on having “Emirs” calling the shots in their neighborhood.
