Since it’s a day that ends in “day,” the French seem busy doing what they do best: expressing their political dissatisfaction by having a good old-fashioned riot.
This time (according to the legacy media), the “protesters” are “protesting” declining conditions in government-run schools. Apparently, the only way the French could get more pens, pencils, and erasers into the classroom is by looting a Louis Vuitton in Paris.
But something feels different about this particular “French” riot, in that it doesn’t feel very French. Actually, it doesn’t feel French at all.
Footage and testimony that managed to sneak through the media-sanitization campaign aiming to obscure the truth included reports of supermarkets being ransacked except for pork products, footage of Muslim businesses being spared by Muslim rioters while Jewish businesses, homes, and religious institutions were torn apart, and a stunning lack of a single French flag among the crowds chanting words that cannot be found in the French dictionary.
There is one particular video that exemplifies this entire sorry situation: a young, white French woman who stood horrified as she tried (and failed) to stop rioters from entering her family’s store, and even pleaded with them through tears as she declared her support for their goals and that “this is not the cause.”
Except that is where she was wrong. This is the cause. In fact, it’s the entirety of the cause.
What we are seeing erupt in France is an explosion of Islamo-Communism, with an emphasis on the Islamo, in which Islamists (whether they are born in France or not) seek the submission of France, of Europe, and the West. This is the result of decades of self-destructive European immigration policy, yes, but it is also the result of a tragic naivety demonstrated by Europeans like the woman who was forced to stand helpless as barbarians destroyed her family’s store.
The Islamo-Communists rampaging through France might accept support when necessary. But when that support is no longer necessary (such as today), they will loudly and proudly declare that fact to their now-forgotten supporters, who were foolish enough to believe that they ever shared the same “cause.”
Yet again, the West finds itself at a tipping point. Will it realize that the barbarians are already inside the gates, often living in government-funded housing, and that they must be addressed before it is too late? Or will it continue to cower behind its ignorant embrace of multiculturalism and tolerance that has been weaponized against it?
FRANCE ROCKED BY ANTI-GOVERNMENT PROTESTS AND RIOTS: WHAT TO KNOW
Given that the French president, Emmanuel Macron, spent the riots enjoying a Celine Dion concert and the mainstream media is busy cropping out every Palestinian flag, unmolested mosque, and keffiyeh it can find, it seems that France has already made its decision. But what about Europe, which seems months behind France?
And what about America? Given how easily the country descended into political riots in 2020 under the banner of Black Lives Matter, and considering how deeply the “Palestinian cause” has infiltrated the “progressive” wing of American politics, is it beyond imagination that a Palestinian flag could soon be flying atop an American monument?
