Developments in Europe

Continuing my theme from a couple of posts ago (More Like France), a couple of new and interesting pieces have come out of European press recently. Neither of these items have received substantial coverage in American media.

First, courtesy LGF, French "Youth": Elect Sarkozy and People Will Die

"Sarko is the provocative element," said Kiko. "And if he is elected next year I warn you: people will be killed."

Nicolas Sarkozy (Sarko), a minister in the current goverment, is planning on running for President. The major issue in his campaign is law and order.

Second, via BBC, France in Rawanda Genocide Probe. To be clear, France is not investigating the genocide in Rawanda. France is being investigated for the role its troops may have played in the genocide.

EU Referendum has some fascinating commentary and a very interesting picture.

Given that the continuous and expanding threads of evidence point to France as a country that has, from Vietnam through Algeria and a succession of African colonies up to and including the Ivory Coast, exercised a wholly malign influence, we really do have to ask ourselves whether this is a country with which we can afford to be associated.

For so long we have heard all manner of jibes and accusations against the United States but, if we are to choose between allies, the murderous history of the French would seem to make them a very poor second-best.
