Because the French have a boiling point. Once hit they become very violent.
Historically perhaps, but they have been “rioting” for more than 3 months and have been nicely managed by the government.
I don’t think that France will save itself.
Too many invaders in their midst.
Look at all the church burnings that they are keeping from themselves, look at what the invaders have done to their cities like Lyon!
there is nothing that I see that would indicate that they are able to defend themselves.
France is an old and incapable man and you are remembering his behavior in his youth.
