‘Fed up’ French Muslims mobilize to unseat Sarkozy
The Washington Times ^ | April 20, 2012 | Karine G. Barzegar

France’s Muslim community is mobilizing voters to reject President Nicolas Sarkozy in Sunday’s election to punish the conservative leader for his anti-immigrant and anti-Islam rhetoric.

“[French] Muslims can’t stand it anymore. They are fed up with these debates about national identity, halal meat, the veil or fundamentalism all over the place,” said Francoise Lorcerie, a sociologist with the Institute of Studies on the Arab and Muslim World near Marseille.

If they are in France illegally, deport them now. He who hesitates is lost.

This could actually help Sarkozy. They weren't going to vote for him in any case. However, by getting worked up and in the faces of the native French population they will ensure that the anti-immigrant vote goes to Sarkozy. Immigrants are very unpopular in France right now.

An anti-immigrant backlash could save Europe. Not the EU, that bureaucratic abomination is dead by the nature of its own creation. But Europe as a distinct cultural entity might come out the other end if the Europeans decide that they are in fact not part of North Africa.

Sarkozy called Obama insane, and has been reasonably intelligent and responsible. His opposition is organized by an Obama-style group of young recent graduates of the Harvard. They are following the Obama playbook to a T,, even having ‘hope’ as one of their slogans. If they combine with the koranimals, they will likely win.
Wondering what effect the socialist win in France would have on the markets? Obviously wouldn’t be good,,,

I remember the old days, before globalization of our national bank, when it was almost impossible for a euopean election to have an impact on the US economy.

Scary times.

Time for that French chauvinism about their superior culture to manifest in a rejection of non-French,i.e. Muslim culture.

Marseille, in the mid 50s, had a large muslim population living in the “French Morrocan” section. It was clean and pretty - imagine Casablanca - and out of bounds for those on my ship. I was in there, on shore patrol, to chase sailors out.

Dream on. Time to pay for support for muzzies in international politics. Chechen, Somalian, Afghani and Iraqi ‘refugies’ are there to give credit for anti-American, anti-Russian politics of French government.

Burn France, a home of all-white flag and dumb hippies!

If that’s the case today, we need to move our people out. We don’t need an embassy in unfriendly territory. The hell with them.

My Wife's family are all French Muslims.

And Believe me, nothing would make them happier than to see Sarkozy and his "Italian strumpet" defeated in the election.

So Sad, but we are still in this!

Go Sarko!

If the muzzies succeed, then the sky is the limit and all of Europe will fall under their rule.

Sarkozy has to become the Charles Martel of the 21st Century.

“[French] Muslims can’t stand it anymore...”

The problem with Muslims is that the are Muslims and not French Muslims.

Sooner or later comes the war...why not choose the time?

Let’s not pretend Sarkozy is some kind of conservative ally. Just a couple of bits for reminder:

So if you're a French “progressive” your new best friends are followers of the Religion of Pieces.

Thanks to Army Air Corps for the Ping!
KC_LION came in second.

I suggest you all read the comments on this WT article and realize what this election in France is really about. Islam uniting with the Left to try and bring a Western country to its knees.
Hollande can promise the “yoots” in the banlieues (suburban ghettos) but France is broke, the coffers empty.

Read what Churchill said about Socialism and Islam, and weep for France:

“Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of ignorance, its inherent virtue, the equal sharing of misery”
 Winston Churchill

Mohammedanism    Winston Churchill
  1899

“How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property – either as a child, a wife, or a concubine – must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the Queen: all know how to die but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilisation of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilisation of ancient Rome.

Still, if you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed, if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not so costly, you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance for survival. There may be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no chance of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.”

 Winston Churchill 
The River War, first edition, Vol. II by Winston Churchill

Yep. Immigration has consequences as we are also finding out.

As Yogi Berra said, “it ain’t over ‘til it’s over”, and the final round is on May 6.
That being said, we can look to 1981, and the election of Socialist François Mitterrand, the only Socialist President under the Vth Republic. Banks and large businesses closed up shop and moved out of France, many, including the Rothschilds, moved to the US and London. People who had the means left France, and took their money, investments, businesses, and jobs with them.

It is true that many Clintonistas and Obama campaign people have been not so secretly working to elect the Socialist, Hollande, running his campaign and using the same slogans that they used to push Obama.
