So spineless Macroni will fight the forces of division but will allow the terrorist forces to continue to kill the French people.
World War I exterminated the virile Gallic and British Y chromosomes and genes, like those in the men that help Gen. Washington defeat the British in the American Revolution. All that’s left are obsequious girly-men and perverts.
