Among the long list of recommendations...the panel says that public schools in France should be taught in Arabic and African languages rather than in French.
"It would no longer be up to French immigrants to adopt French culture, but for France to abandon its own culture, language, history and identity to adapt to other people's cultures." — Jean-François Copé, UMP Party.
Instead of integration, "parallel societies are forming that continuously distance themselves from each other." — Alain Finkielkraut, author of L'identité malheureuse.
A panel appointed by French Prime Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault to review France's integration policies has urged the government to implement a "new form of secularism" that would raise the profile of Islam in public life—in order to improve the integration of Muslim immigrants. Among a long list of recommendations aimed at "recognizing the richness of multiple identities," the panel says that public schools in France should begin allowing Muslim pupils to wear headscarves in class (clothing that has been outlawed since 2004), and that courses should be taught in Arabic and African languages rather than in French.
The panel also recommends a number of other multicultural changes that would provide greater recognition to the "Arab-oriental dimension" of France's national identity. These include changing street and place names, overhauling the history curriculum taught in schools and creating a special day to honor the contribution of immigrant cultures.
More notably, the panel says that authorities and the media should be prohibited from referring to people's nationality, religion or ethnicity in public, and that the government should create a new law that would make "racial harassment" a punishable offense.

France is dead!
If you go to a country to live you shuld learn that countries language.
In America we should immediately stop printing government form in any language other than English, and stop asking me for English press 1.
A battle that needs to happen before it is too late.
Leni
Look for defections to Front Nationale.
The keen desire to die.
I don’t believe that the French want to abandon their national culture — there is something else behind this destructive movement.
But then again, this trend towards islamization also seems to be widespread in the USA.

Thanks george76. Burkahville ping.
This is the same country that just banned the burka, yes?
“parallel societies are forming that continuously distance themselves from each other.”
He’s talking about the seculars and Christians.
It seems arrogance and sovereignty don’t coalesce very well.
“A panel appointed by French Prime Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault to review France’s integration policies has urged the government to implement a “new form of secularism” that would raise the profile of Islam in public life”
The idiocy of this statement is staggering. Let’s be more “secular” by embracing a death cult.
Cheese eating surrender monkeys.
Last week, I watched THE BATTLE FOR ALGIERS in which islamics try to drive the French out of Algeria.
I expect to see THE BATTLE FOR FRANCE soon in which the French try to drive the islamic invader out.
But then I’m not looking to see the islamics thrown out, after all, they will be fighting FRENCH!
***should be taught in Arabic***
At least the King of Spain expelled the moslems again around 1611 and forbade the use of Arabic in language and writing.
Roger that.
From the article: “More notably, the panel says that authorities and the media should be prohibited from referring to people’s nationality, religion or ethnicity in public, and that the government should create a new law that would make “racial harassment” a punishable offense.”
More accommodation of the abomination that is islam.
I suspect Saudi money funding secret political accounts buys a whole lot of idiocy. The communists use to say the capitalists would sell them the rope to hang them (capitalists). Well, the politicians will succumb to Muslim proselytization through payoffs.
This promotion of balkanization is of course is an attempt to create a power vacuum, one that will allow a conqueror to come in and fill that vacuum.
The French are weird. They can surrender in an outside war at the drop of a hat, but mess with their culture and they will exterminate you.
