The above title is not mine. It heads J.B. Shurk’s latest commentary at americanthinker.com. And, sad to say, despite the BS “news” reporting of most media there, it seems to accurately convey what is going on in that seriously compromised country.
Here is the first part of Mr. Shurk’s piece (but do yourself a favor and use the above link to read all the rest as well):
The propaganda press continue to lie about the fiery riots spreading across France. Both European and American outlets have described the violent insurrections as spontaneous gatherings of students who are upset about dilapidated, overcrowded schools and poor curricula.
These descriptions reek of CNN’s attempt to portray Black Lives Matter and Antifa’s 2020 summer of mass arson, looting, and murder in the United States as “fiery but mostly peaceful protests.” The BLM/Antifa attacks caused more property damage than any other riots in American history.
What’s going on in France could end up being much worse than the BLM/Antifa terrorism in the U.S. French revolutionaries have been burning down schools and setting public buses and fire trucks ablaze. They have looted shops and stalked and preyed on women walking alone. They have attacked strangers with fireworks, mortars, and hydrochloric acid. They have beaten numerous teachers, doused some in gasoline, and set a few on fire. They have injured hundreds of law enforcement officers and firefighters, as well as students who want nothing to do with the mayhem. One witness to the destruction described the scene as “total anarchy” and “total war.”
While the propaganda press pretend that this war is merely a “student uprising,” pictures and video tell a different story. The perpetrators/revolutionary soldiers are young, but most are not white. They appear Middle Eastern or North African. They chant, “We are all antifascists!” They carry Hamas and other foreign flags. Whether they are French citizens or not, these thugs have nothing but contempt for French authorities.
One murderous group kicked and beat a young female police officer for sport. As the gang chased and tripped the trainee-cop to the ground, her attackers screamed, “Bitch!” and, “Kill her!” They nearly succeeded. Video of that incident prompted fierce open-borders-opponent Marine Le Pen to write, “The image of this young policewoman, pursued by a pack howling its hatred, thrown to the ground and assaulted, is unbearable.”
In another incident, attackers wearing masks and hoods chased, knocked down, and beat a police officer until he was unconscious. The masked revolutionaries continued to kick the unconscious officer in the head and nearly killed him. The local police union described the attempted murder bluntly: “This is no longer anti-cop hatred. IT IS A HUNT FOR COPS.”
The propaganda press insist that these violent riots have nothing to do with anti-white racism or Islamic supremacy. It is an unassailable fact, though, that almost every victim of these predatory attacks has been a white native of France. French politician, pundit, and essayist Éric Zemmour argues, “This has nothing to do with bad school conditions. Plain and simple. These are ethnic riots, and demographics is destiny. Without remigration, this is the fate of all Western European nations.”
Is that really the way of things? Is that what now is happening in France?
My wife and I spend almost two weeks in France just a few months ago; specifically at Normandy (three days) and Paris (8 days). We saw nothing like this in either place.
Based on our experience, I see what is happening now as either a very recent phenomenon or something that has been boiling for some period of time and finally boiled over.
My expectation is that it is the latter.
But either way, if this is what is happening in France right now, the country is in a major-league serious crisis; one that is also occurring – maybe even further along – in the United Kingdom. And one that other countries in Europe, to varying degrees, are on the cusp of experiencing.
I hope I am wrong about this. But I don’t think I am.
