Within 20 years the next French Revolution will be Islamic.

"During WWII, the French happily and voluntarily rounded up Jews for deportation to the death camps."

Just about every one of the occupied countries did that, even Denmark. There were always non-Jews to accommodate the Nazis quotas. But unfortunately, some Jews were willing to do that as well. Jacob Gens was Chief of the Jewish Ghetto Police in the Vilnius Ghetto is what is now Lithuania. He believed that accommodating the Nazis would save Jewish lives, so he encouraged the people in the ghetto to show up so they could be sent to "work camps" in Estonia. Gens told the people: "A Jew with a job, is a Jew with a future."

Despite being warned by resistance fighters in the ghetto, that he was sending people to their deaths, he didn't believe it, and continued his work to supply the Nazis with the quotas they demanded. One day when he was 200 Jews short of the required number, he called the 200 newly sworn in auxiliary police to the ghetto gates. He told them that they would meet the person who would lead them to the Jews that were hiding. Of course once they got to the gate, they were surrounded by Nazi soldiers, and realized that they were the missing 200 Jews, and were shipped out. When it was reported in September 1943 that the ghetto would be eradicated, the Nazis arrested Gens, and shot him the next day. That's what happened in just one ghetto.

France never withdrew from NATO. They wisely refused to base other nations in France and not to have NATO command their forces.

I'm with the French on this. The Americans are simply unreliable due to our politics. The French would rather be self-sufficient when it comes to their military.

About 75,000 Jews were deported to Nazi concentration camps and death camps and 73,500 of them were murdered, but 75% of the approximately 330,000 Jews in metropolitan France in 1939 escaped deportation and survived the Holocaust, which is one of the highest survival rates in Europe.


Which begs the question, did so many Jews survive in France precisely because the French were in charge of the roundups, as opposed to the Germans?

France was never DeNazified after WW2 even though many (not all) French helped the Nazis round up innocent Jews for shipment to the Nazi murder factories.

Failure to deNazify France was a serious mistake

France voted against the Gulf War along with China as they were making big money off of the corrupted Iraqi Food for Oil Program.

MS Arafat is French and that “missing” Arafat $1billion is 90% chance in a French bank.

The Italians were never so much into the whole “kill the Jews” thing.


Il Duce’s favorite singing group were Trio Lescano, Dutch-Hungarian sisters who happened to be Jewish. Here’s what they sounded like:

Meant to add that I’d be with the French too beyond them being back stabbing, ungrateful, socialist POS that contribute absolute zero to my existence while being willingly overrun by Allah. It’s one thing for my tax dollars to subsidize their military and healthcare, I draw the line at subsidizing Mohammad.

“...survived the Holocaust, which is one of the highest survival rates in Europe.”—————————
Denmark, I believe did somewhat better. Most of the few Danish Jews sent to camps survived because the Danish government refused to turn its back on them.

And a German officer tipped off the Danes as to when the roundup was going to take place, and most wound up escaping to Sweden.

First of all, it's likely because there weren't any Jewish ghettos in France, or at least any that I could find doing searches. Since not all of France was immediately occupied, Jews had the opportunity to escape from the free zone. This article explains why so many Jews survived the occupation of France:

How three-quarters of French Jews survived the Holocaust, despite the Vichy regime

The CIC, which was the forerunner of the CIA was instrumental in protecting and helping war criminal Klaus Barbie, the Butcher of Lyon escape capture, and resettle him in South America. Barbie murdered men, women and children...44 children to be exact. The CIA lied to French authorities claiming they had no knowledge of his whereabouts, when they knew damn well where he was, because they'd put him and his family there. He was loose for many years until Serge and Beate Klarsfeld found him in Bolivia, and he was eventually extradited to France in 1983. Unfortunately by that time, the death penalty had been overturned in France, so the bastard ended up in prison until his death in 1991.

Most notably, Leon Blum, who was the socialist PM in France, before the war, survived.

In France before the war, they had a saying, “Better Hitler than Blum”.

The Macron Government (which I am not supporting) stated it supports the ICC organization in general, nothing else. Unlike America, France is a member of the ICC.
It said nothing about whether it would push the case further against Netanyahu. As well, it said nothing about the three Hamas leaders being targeted by the ICC.
France has always been proactive in anti-terrorism efforts.

Nevertheless, I would have prefered a clear statement by France where they explain their sentiment about those 3 Hamas terrorists and also their stance concerning President Netanyahu.

Let’s wait and see before rushing to conclusions.

No occupied nation in WW2 was more cooperative with the Nazis in turning over Jews than the French. Even the Italian Fascists weren’t as bad

You seem to be focusing on turning Jews over to the Germans, not the general anti semitic laws in Italy. You're correct that the French rounded up Jews themselves saving the occupying Nazis the trouble. If by the fascists you meen the Mussolini government, they refused to turn Jews over to the Nazis. Italian Jews weren't sent to the camps until the Mussolini government fell and Germany took the country over, what wasn't already held by the Nazis.

Election theft is the only explanation that makes sense for Macaroon to remain President of France.
