Threat To Sarkozy As Suburbs Prepare To Vote (France)

The Telegraph (UK) ^ | 4-9-2007 | Henry Samuel - Mantes-La-Jolie

"...two teenagers of immigrant origin ..."

= Muslim

Si Se Puede!

If Sarkozy is elected there will most likely be trouble in the streets.

That's a given. The question is whether the unions will be willing to join forces with the Muslims - oh, dear, I shouldn't have said the word - in order to neutralize Sarkozy. When the unions have had enough France has had enough. If they haven't we'll see more of the same.

[DeerfieldObserver]

The Telegraph, supposedly a conservative newspaper, is starting to be a stooge for political correctness.

I guess the Times of London is the only conservative paper in London now?

"I will vote for Ségolène to block Sarkozy and because she represents a certain idea of how I see France," said Mr Belhadaoi, 29, a bank security guard of Moroccan origin

Yep, he sees it as a "Future islamic Republic".

[Smedley]

If Sarkozy is elected there will most likely be trouble in the streets.

Yeah, like maybe there will be riots that last for months on end with the burning of thousands of cars and stuff like that!

[lesser_satan]

I’ll be sure to have the popcorn ready in the event that he wins. The Yoots will be burning everything in sight.

[Live free or die]

I'll come out and say it if no one else is thinking it...I'm rooting for the socialist/communists on this one. Its to the US's advantage to keep Europe as weak as we possibly can and the only way to do that is to keep them socialist.

Now I know what you're thinking...A weak Europe (ie suicidal welfare-nanny govt) is ripe for the plucking from Muslim fanatics.

I say that its already been plucked...a weak Europe in Muslim hands can harm us less than a stronger one. Sarkozy is better for France and thus, worse for the US. To drive the point home, ask yourself...if he's on the same "right" as Chirac...how much different/worse can Royal really be?

[CheyennePress]

I don’t think you’ve read much about Sarkozy’s opinion of the United States. He’s actually pretty pro-US.

And I’ll disagree about the benefits of ceding a single inch of European soil to Muslim extremists. Given an inch...

[tflabo]

They should make a rule that anyone caught and convicted of rioting gets the boot out of the country.. Oh...silly me.. it’s Wussie France...

[Live free or die]

Quite the contrary: I know of the falling out between the two but please lets remember...a Frenchman is a Frenchman first and foremost. He will be just another disgraceful Gaulist.

In terms of giving territory up to the Muzzies why not read about the neighborhoods of Paris that the police refuse to enter?

[CheyennePress]

Oh, I know about those territories. I still think an authoritarian force in French politics could sweep away some of that, however.

[Philistone]

The unions will, as they always do, think about themselves first. Actually, they don’t have a horse in this race. Their only concern is keeping workers (that is to say non-union-dues-paying workers) out of the workforce.

Most will vote Royal, but then they would vote Socialist regardless of the alternative candidate.

[ken21]

just remember the words the esteemed jean-paul sartre in the intro of “the wretched of the earth”

to the effect that the dark-skinned, oppressed people have a right to kill whites.

[blam]

"The question is whether the unions will be willing to join forces with the Muslims."

Let the US Democrats be your guide.

Sarko is not at all the same as Chirac, even though Chirac was elected from the UMP. Sarko and friends staged a political coup and seized control of the party and basically told Chirac he could pack up and leave. ----Which Chirac has done, and is now backing Bayrou.

Sarkozy has repatedly criticized Chirac for his anti-American and anti-Israel attitudes.

"Val-Fourre housing estate" in Mantes-la-Jolie = "The Projects"

"neighborhoods of Paris that the police refuse to enter?" = Watts

"Which Chirac has done, and is now backing Bayrou. "

Woah !! Mrs. Chirac appeared with the Sark and endorsed him, a gesture of unspoken support by Mr. Chirac.

FRENCH ELECTION UPDATE :: Chirac's wife supports Sarkozy at campaign rally

[Lancey Howard]

The French socialists apparently work the same way the American socialists (Democrats) work - - register as many homeless, bums, parasites, losers, and minority “perma-victims” as possible, dead or alive, even if you have to ply them with cheap wine and cigarettes.
