In France?

"The French daily Le Figaro voiced concern about rising tension between France's Jewish community -- Europe's largest -- and its four to five million Muslims, suggesting the country could become "an annex of the battleground in the Middle East."

If this conflict were to spread into France, want to place bets on how fast the French will be begging us to come over there and save their sorry butts.

Right-wing...France?

sdj;falsdhig[oaiwhrnq'baa'wm'dv;lasknbawoprhji9gawgasldnb....oh, I am sorry, I just lost consciousness for a second and my head hit my keyboard.

Boy, I think the world really might be coming to an end, especially with titles like these.

Hmmmm . . .

The Front National, a pro-French party which has opposed the dilution of French culture and the out-of-control immigration policies of the Socialist government, has continually been criticized by Jewish groups in France as "fascist, xenophobic, racist" and all the other usual epithets.

Jewish leaders have claimed that the Front National would support a return of anti-Semitism in France even though the Front National has several board members and candidates who are conservative French Jews (yes, they exist!).

Hopefully Jewish organizations in France will realize that those who support a traditional, Christian France are their allies in the fight against Islamic extremism. Perhaps now French Jewish organziations will stop their policy of reflexively endorsing continued Thrid World immigration into France.

Only the reversal of France's suicidal immigration policy can prevent crimes as heinous as the burning of synagogues.

The French Jews are starting to fight back, and suddenly the French government sees that it has a problem.

[Clintons Are White Trash]

I would think it would make it more convenient to surrender to both groups at the same time....

[wideawake]

The Front National, a French political party which is as fiscally conservative as the US Republicans (i.e., somewhat fiscally conservative) and far more socially conservative than the US Republicans, won 14% of the French vote in 1997 and was the third largest party in France behind the RPR and the Socialists.

More than four million Frenchmen have voted FN. There are many, many conservative Frenchmen living in the gun-toting, churchgoing, agricultural South of France.

We never hear from them because, like American conservatives, they don't own any networks or national magazines.

Let's hope that French Jews fight back hard and refuse to listen to the blandishments of the Socialists whose predecessors handed them over to the Nazis.

[AFPhys]

I'm certain that this call for peace by the French government will be a great success.

It is indeed unfortunate that in the war on terrorism France doesn't have a Maginot line to insure its defense.

What ever happened to "Vive la difference"?

Thanks for looking that up. Think the attacks on the FN will stop now?

[Blood of Tyrants]

Only France would consider a terrorist attack as the victim's fault.

You guys obviously don't know about some of the neo-nazi groups in France. That place has the potential to explode...especially with the influx of immigrants. The French are great at lecturing others about racism but are very xenophobic themselves.

[bfree]

The French have a REAL PROBLEM-- who to surrender to.
