Founding editor of The American Conservative and author of Ex-Neocon: Dispatches From the Post-9/11 Ideological Wars, Scott McConnell explains to readers that violence should now be expected in France as radical leftists have joined the riots there, using the cover of the Gilet Jaunes (Yellow Vests) protests to loot and destroy private property. He writes (abridged): […]
Looting, Vandalizing, Torching Get Political Results?
The real tragedy with the rioting in France is that President Macron could have avoided the wrath of the Yellow Vests. Macron, as promised while campaigning, did cut taxes, reform labor laws, and face down the national railroad unions. What sparked the protests, however, was what hadn’t been promised while Macron was campaigning: the fuel-tax […]
Shocked That Macron Is in This Mess
Cole Stangler, a Paris based journalist, explains to readers of The Nation, that the so-called Gilets jaunes, or Yellow Vest movement in France has caught every political party by surprise. It is a shock that Macon has landed himself in such a mess, after promising to maintain a business friendly agenda while campaigning. It can hardly […]
Paris Facing Marauding Nighttime Young Men From the “Banlieues”
Is there anything Emmanuel Macron can do to stop the Yellow Vest movement, short of resigning? Would even that be enough? Macron has failed to quell the riots, even with brute force. His plan to remake France looks dead, and it’s possible he won’t even serve the remainder of his term. As Noemie Bisserbe and […]
Parisian Slums Keep Expanding, French Villages Gradually Disappear
At The Federalist, Auguste Meyrat makes the case that France’s “Yellow Vest,” riots aren’t solely about gas prices, but instead are about the decline of the West. He notes that “French cities feature ghettos of unassimilated immigrants who pose an ever-increasing drag on the economy and culture. They do not speak French; they do not […]
For Monsieur Macron – Too Little Too Late?
Last year, when President Trump withdrew the U.S. from the Paris climate agreement, French President Macron, in English, lectured Mr. Trump: “There is no Plan B because there is no Planet B.” Well, the last three weeks of less-than-harmonious demonstrations by the Gilets Jaunes (yellow vests) have been so trying for Mr. Macron that he […]
French “banlieues” Breeding Grounds For Failed Muslim Assimilation
In The American Conservative, Will Collins outlines the deep divide between Paris and its suburbs, known as “banlieues,” where much of France’s immigrant population has settled. Collins warns that France’s immigrant-heavy suburban housing complexes have become a breeding ground for gang violence and Islamic radicalism, and that between 15 and 20 percent of French citizens will be Muslim by […]
French President Emmanuel Macron Has Now Cooked His Own Goose
When Macron was elected French President I was prepared to give him some running room. Now, more than one debacle later, the fellow has worked his French countrymen up into a full scale snit. Macron is simply the wrong man for the job. And Marine Le Pen and her Rassemblement National party are now breathing […]
French Suburbs “Increasingly Dominated by Islamist Muslims”
Founding editor of The American Conservative, Scott Mcconnell, explains to readers that the white working class citizens who France’s globalist leaders have forgotten, have increasingly been replaced in their traditional suburbs by Islamist Muslims with little connection to Gaul. He writes (abridged): The mass protests of the “gilets jaunes” (yellow vests), named for the high […]
Hungary is NOT going to Stand for European Parliament Meddling!
Skomantas Pocius, a Ph.D. candidate in the Committee on Social Thought at the University of Chicago, explains in The American Conservative that the European Union’s recent sanctions resolution against Hungary subversively expands the bloc’s mandate into control over issues of family and religion. Those are topics that have never been part of the EU’s purview, and […]
