What looks like coordinated muslim riots across France. I bet they feel good about their tolerance and inclusiveness which has not been reciprocated.

I simply do not care a whit about EU countries...
I have stupidity fatigue and their stupidity is top of the list..
Let it all burn to the ground as an object lesson to others.
The same peril has been taking down Western nations since the fall of the Sumerian empire, 2000 B.C.
Is there a connection between these riots and yesterday’s failed hijacking over the Middle East?
Like many cities and States here.
They’re getting what they voted for.
I view the Maginot Line as inherent national weakness. It was a land-locked navy that was easily bypassed.
That will only happen when those things the left holds dear start being lost. When universities start to burn and leftist professors lose their jobs they will change their tune. When people like Macron have family members targeted, when the 'elites' lose money and property, when life becomes hard for those who control the message and who push the propaganda, only then will they understand how stupid they've been - but it may be too late.
We owe our freedom to France; we would have never won the revolutionary war without their help.
The muslims here in the USA will follow the same game plan. If it is not stopped in Europe then we will have to stop it here with our government fighting against us.
Thanks goodness the frogs have weapo........oh! 🙄
Not a coincidence that the Pope just had a beautiful visit to France. The Muslims feel threatened.

Perhaps the Maginot Line was a weakness. But if so, it was due to poor planning by the French leadership. The end result does not reflect badly on the French army or people.
The Maginot Line repulsed every direct attack by the Germans. So it did work. The problem was that the Line did not extend further out. So the Germans simply went around it.
The cheese-eating surrender monkeys?
Coming soon to a city near you...

I don’t have a drop of French blood in me. Nevertheless, I must say that’s a bad rap. The French soldier behaved heroically in WW1. Read about the Battle of Verdun in 1916 if you doubt that.
France was very poorly led in WW2. Nevertheless, the French soldier behaved heroically. Read about their stubborn defense of Lille in 1940 if you doubt that. As I mentioned earlier, that defense allowed the British to escape at Dunkirk.
One shame upon French honor in WW2 is the story of the Vichy collaborators. That cannot be ignored. Yet every Nazi-conquered country had their collaborators. France was no different.
Diversity is France’s strength, also.
“Possibly the tougher and more ambitious French moved here for freedom and opportunity.” That’s true of all past European immigrants to the U.S. Anyone with a bit of get-up-and-go got up and went, and many of them came here and blessed this country. Alas, that’s no longer the case.
There is diversity and then there are Muslims. People need to read Koran to understand what Muslims are after.
“The French have always been tough people. Their collapse in 1940 came not from any inherent national weakness. They were simply outmaneuvered by better German generals.”
I agree. 5.6 Million killed and wounded in WW1 (far more than the combined WW1 and WW2 for the US), which only ended 22 years prior to 1940 - considering their population was only 40M to begin with, that’s a good chunk of their manpower to get smashed.
