Is France Heading for a Civil War?
NY Sun ^ | 28 June 2024 | Michel Gurfinkiel

If the National Rally passes the 289 seats limit, Mr. Macron is supposed to call upon Mr. Bardella to form the cabinet. This would be seen as a casus belli by the militant far left. Alternatively, Mr. Macron may cite law and order concerns to bar Mr. Bardella from the premiership and form an “apolitical” or “technical” cabinet. A move that the right may construe as a coup d’Etat.

The far left’s “civil war” threats should not be ignored and are not. Shops and restaurants are already barricading. Mayors — including the most liberal ones — are begging for police and gendarmerie deployment.

They fear “punitive raids” by the well-trained urban guerilla fighters known as the black bloc — a kind of left-wing “Invisible Empire” that periodically pops up in France and in other European countries — and large scale youth riots and arsons, just like one year ago.

The far left won’t allow the right to rule even if they win the election? Prelude to November here?

My two cents is that if there is a revolution in France that it will devolve into ethnic warfare between the French and the Muslim invaders. There is no way that the Muslims will not act to become part of whatever revolution takes place which will piss off the natives. It might be a good thing since the French outnumber the Muslims and the French people could finally settle the issue.

They’ve got to be kidding. Exhibit one on why those scum should be arrested or deported.
Isn’t this a real insurrection?
And Macon should fail to honor the vote because of these criminals?
I was just in Paris the were sending a lot of gendarmes around.
Obviously, if a new government is voted in, the police should crush the rioters.

I have no confidence that the right will be allowed to win in the second round.

Of interest is that the Tour de France, for the first time ever, will not conclude in Paris this year. It’s ending in Nice.

It may be time to haul out “The National Razor”.

Is this the French version of ANTIFA? A bunch of white guys from Portland? Only in this case, they're from Paris and their parents are elitists (similar to what we see here in USA).

No, the left won’t allow the right to rule if they win elections because you only have “democracy” when the left wins.

The majority of people always want leftist candidates to win whether they know it or not.

One significant difference between Europe and the US. It has to do with our God given rights.

It is always the left who throws temper tantrums.

This is what I’ve been arguing about for over five years. In fact, about a year ago I put it in my tag line. It’s not just the US that is in turmoil, And it’s not just Europe. It’s the world. How’s China doing?

And the whole world knows now that the US is leaderless.

For now but if they wait, according to demographic trends, the Muslims will be the majority in a generation or two.

Somewhere around 2050-2075.

No. Marcon would rather have an Islamist “France” (or whatever the Muslims name it) than support the patriotic right. So he is uniting with the Hamas-supporting, Marxist far-left to defeat LePen and that is exactly what will happen. Sadly France will not be able to defeat them ever again, as 4 or 7 years from now, the demographics will make that impossible.
