Le Pen: 'The French are no longer safe'
NYTimes ^ | 14 Nov 2015 | Aurelien Breeden

Posted on 11/15/2015 3:26:30 PM PST by 11th_VA

Marine Le Pen, the leader of France's extreme-right National Front party, declared at a news conference on Saturday: "France and the French are no longer safe. It is my duty to tell you so."...

... she said that France had to “finally determine who are its allies and who are its enemies.” She accused unnamed countries of having “benevolent” relationships with radical Islam and “ambiguous” ties with terrorist groups...

“Whatever the European Union might say, it is essential that France recover the control of its national borders, once and for all,” she said. “Without borders, neither security nor protection are possible.”...

“Finally, fundamentalist Islam must be wiped out,” she said. “France must ban Islamist organizations, close radical mosques, and kick out foreigners who are preaching hatred on our soil, as well as illegal immigrants who have nothing to do here.”

She said that people who are members of Islamist movements and who have dual citizenship — from France and another nation — should have their French citizenship taken away and should be banned from French territory.

Isn’t it against French law to speak so critically of radical Islam?

Islam is incompatible with the 21st century. Better to leave them in their Muslim crap holes.

Yes but I don’t have much confidence that the French voters will vote the commies out.

The French need to convince the extreme left that they want to be able to arm themselves like we do in America.

The Nazis (at least the ones in charge of Paris), at least had the common decency to not blow up Paris on Hitler’s orders....That will not be the case with ISIS.

How to handle home grown Terrorists? Some suggestions for the French:
1. Bring back the head cutting machine—use it.
2. Re-Open Devil’s Island—make it worse than it was.
3. Kick out any who are rumored radical—France still has some islands they can deport them to—some jungle hell where few return.

If you can’t advocate action against radical Islamics you sure aren’t go to take any.

“But what do we do with the home-grown jihadists?”

Apparently we put them in the White House.
