… Of Chaos And Civil War In France Because Of Radical Islam

"Emmanuel Macron has threatened to punish generals who signed an open letter warning that the country is heading for 'civil war' because of radical Islam.

Twenty retired generals, as well as several serving soldiers, signed the letter which warned that failure to act against the 'suburban hordes' – a reference to the predominantly immigrant population of the housing estates which surround French cities – will lead to deaths 'in the thousands.'

The government strongly condemned the letter, which was published on the 60th anniversary of a failed coup d'etat by generals opposed to France granting independence to Algeria…"

Given France has had a low level Islamic insurgency for a long time now I suspect the generals are right.

Hopefully the French won't just use this as an excuse to purge the military.

Everything is great, don't worry.

All is well.

"…..now about that fellow Dreyfuss."

Are you someone who sees racism in everything before gathering any of the facts?

No, but the French have a history of histrionics.

Does not France have a 9% population of moslems ? Of course, only very, very few are really actual terrorists or supports terrorism. But we all have seen that what one or two jihadis with a bomb(s), or a truck, a knife, etc., etc. can do.

I think the French military is wise to make note of this. But will their elected & appointed gov't officials do anything about it ? Probably not.

Today it seems in a number of places in the West. LEOs and the military are the "badd guys" … again …

Flicks and military were bad guys ever in France…. not only today…


Muslims in France are not so pacefull as you said… not the youngest… they have they motives…

This situation there could rapidly get out of hand. But the ones that don't want to kill us will feel good about it …

Oh well … sometimes you may need a good revolution now and then. The French have not had one in a very long time.

Religiously inspired radical fundamentalists can be "quite troublesome" as we have seen in many places in the World …
