Stop pretending the French riots are anything but an attack on civilization
NY Post ^ | Oct. 18, 2026 | Post Editorial

Posted on 10/23/2026 6:42:06 PM PDT by george76

France is seeing its worst riots in decades — violence clearly aimed not simply at the ruling party, but at France itself — and the left-liberal establishment is still trying to blame a few bad apples.

That’s true not just of President Emmanuel Macron, but of global media that claim it’s mainly about student grievances over budget cuts — at least one BBC article actually used the phrase “mostly peaceful protests.”

This is nonsense: The street mobs haven’t been just (or even mostly) kids for weeks now, and the vandalism began in the first days; it was last month that “protesters” set a teacher on fire.

Foreign flags (Morocco, Algeria, “Palestine”) came out at the start; the crowds are mostly blacks and Arabs — overwhelmingly from Muslim immigrant communities, in other words.

And the political statements are obvious: Burning down historic town halls; smashing a statue of Marianne, the symbol of the French Republic.

It’s hard to realize, but one must eventually realize, that the only way Western Civilization will survive is if Islam is completely driven out of its many, and once fine, nations. It’s even harder, for some, to realize that at the same time, we must return to our Christian roots. It seems impossible at this point in time, but this is what I think must happen if we are to still exist 100-200 years from now.

I suppose it is difficult for some people to recognize the Fall of Civilization when they’re in the middle of it.

We bailed them out twice in the last century. Can’t they fight for themselves?

They could, but political correctness is hurting them.

Unfortunately the New York Post is perfectly accurate.
But I would go further. What is going on right now is nothing but a race war.
The same kind America endured during the “Summer of Love” horror show just a few years ago where 140 American inner-cities were ravaged.

Here is the truly frightening thing: those who are destroying France right now, aren’t illegal immigrants… they are for the most part the SONS of migrants, and they are born in France! Technically they are therefore French !!
It is therefore a race war. This means that even if you would stop immigration to 100%, it is far, far, far too late.
It’s a disaster.

Unfortunately America (just like France) will see this race war escalate.

My big confusion is, there have been riots going on almost endlessly for a decade in Paris. Is this really “worse” than all those? Fr had a running thread about days of the yellow jackets or whatever.

George Floyd protests: Unrest escalates in demonstrations in more than 30 US cities
https://youtu.be/DxZVfwudvC8?is=843I1uYW9xP0Hql4

This is the most soft-core video about the 140 (yes 140) American inner cities that were ravaged in the US race-war. I won’t post the true horrible ones.

And you say “nothing to see her, “all is fine, all is fine!”, “Mostly peaceful protests!”,,, 😂
I will nickname you “Baghdad-rxh4n1” from now on! 😂

Again: America and France have the same race-war problems.
If you deny it, you are an obvious Democrat.

Do the reading open your eyes and your mind to the truth.

100’s of Millions Dead: Victims of 1400 years of Islam; the “Religion” of Death and Conquest.

This follows my previous post about 100’s of Thousands Dead in Africa in just 10 years.

The Religion Of Peace. https://thereligionofpeace.com/

DID YOU KNOW???

Of the approximately 65,000 terrorist attacks that have been waged around the world in the past 25 years, 98% of them were carried out by Muslims. The other 4 major religions – Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, & Judaism – altogether were behind just 2% of them.

The religion of “peace” of the grave.

Use Google and or Duck Duck Go, search for knife attacks, (vehicle, truck, car attacks), Search bombings, search rape gangs, search hostages, search mass homicides, search fire bombing and the overwhelming majority will have a moslem, or a palestinian involved as the perpetrator. We all know that islam is a death cult and criminal mafia like organization. ...do the searches and then you decide what a moslem is.

WINSTON CHURCHILL ON ISLAM - IN 1899!

"How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity.

The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men. Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities - but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome." -Sir Winston Churchill (The River War, first edition, Vol. II, pages 248-50 (London: Longmans, Green & Co., 1899).

HERE IS ANOTHER QUOTE:

"To me it seems certain that the fatalistic teachings of Muhammad and the utter degradation of women is the outstanding cause for the arrested development of the Arab. He is exactly as he was around the year 700, while we have kept on developing"

-- General George S. Patton: The War as I Knew it, 1974, p.49

Muslims in France reproduce at more than double the rate of native Frenchwomen.

The death of France is only a matter of time.

According to AI : “Using the closest available estimates, France is around 65% perceived white, compared with around 56–57% non-Hispanic White in the United States. However, because the categories and methods differ, this is an approximate comparison rather than a strict statistical equivalence.”

dayglored: "I suppose it is difficult for some people to recognize the Fall of Civilization when they’re in the middle of it."

Rome wasn't built in a day, and it took centuries to fall from its peak of power under the Five Good Emperors, 2nd century AD, to become a small midieval town by 600 AD:

Decline of Rome: Population and Historical Milestones (150-600 AD)

Year(s)Est. Roman PopulationEvent / Condition of Rome
150 AD~1,000,000Imperial capital megacity near peak population; largest city in the Roman world.
286 AD~800,000-1,000,000Emperor Diocletian moves government to Milan; Rome remains symbolic capital.
330 AD~700,000-900,000Emperor Constantine moves empire's capital to Constantinople (today's Istanbul).
400 AD~500,000-750,000Rome still one of the world's largest cities, but influence diminished; emperors rule elsewhere.
402 AD~500,000-700,000Western empire capital moved from Milan to Ravenna
410 AD~400,000-600,000Rome sacked by Alaric's Visigoths; enormous psychological shock throughout the Roman world.
430s AD~300,000-500,000Vandals seize North Africa; Rome loses major grain shipments and tax revenues.
455 AD~200,000-400,000Vandal sack of Rome; continued economic decline and population loss.
476 AD~100,000-200,000Last Roman Emperor Romulus Augustulus deposed by Odoacer; traditional date of the Fall of the Western Roman Empire.
Most of Rome's economic & population decline had already occurred.
493 AD~100,000Theodoric the Great assumes power in Ravenna.
Rome's Senate, aqueducts, administration, and most infrastructure continue to function.
500 AD~75,000-100,000Diminished but still recognizably Roman city; major monuments and institutions largely intact.
535-554 ADRapid declineRome repeatedly besieged, captured, damaged, and depopulated in Gothic War which devastates Italy.
546 ADTens of thousandsRome captured by Totila; more inhabitants flee or deported.
Large city sections become nearly abandoned.
552-554 AD~30,000 or lessByzantine victory leaves Italy devastated. Rome's urban economy largely destroyed, population dispersed.
568 AD~20,000-40,000Lombard invasions begin; prospects for restoring imperial Italy largely disappear.
600 AD~20,000-30,000Small medieval town amidst ancient ruins; roughly 97-98% below its imperial peak population.

Summary: Rome's decline occurred in two major phases: a gradual reduction in political importance and population from the 3rd through 5th centuries, followed by a catastrophic collapse during the Gothic War (535-554 AD), which transformed the ancient imperial metropolis into a small medieval city.

Rome's population only returned to 1,000,000 in 1935, an event so profound it inspired Italians to dream again of the city's ancient glories... that did not end well for them.

This is not a race war. This violence is the islamic plan to destroy France’s culture and rebuild it into an islamic culture.
