While France Is Burning Macron Grooves

By Rich Kozlovich

It's been said that Nero fiddled as Rome burned, which wasn't true. The fact is as soon as he found out about it he returned to Rome and acted very responsibly to make sure the poor were fed and housed.   But Nero being Nero, he blamed the Christians. 

In the case of French President Emmanuel Macron, he didn't fiddle as France burned, he cluelessly spent the evening grooving with his wife at a Celine Dion concert,  but the people of France had nothing to worry about. He was right on top of it all telling the people of France, who were being physically assaulted and watching their nation being set on fire, to just show "calm and respect".    Imagine that.    

One thing he's sure of it's not the Muslim immigrants who are responsible, but he had to blame someone, so he shifted blame entirely away from Muslims to France's far left radicals, and accused foreign leaders, including .....watch out now.... here it comes.... President Trump....  of trying to "exploit unrest in France for political gain", calling their views stupid.  Well, stupid is as stupid does, and he's an expert at stupid.  I'm just surprised he didn't blame the Jews. 

I guess one of these "stupid" leaders includes German Chancellor Friedrich Merz who outright states that immigration and a failure of assimilation is what caused these riots in France, with him expressing legitimate fears these riots will spread to the rest of Europe, and it is, from Belgium to Berlin.

1. Inside France’s Night Of Terror
2. Many Western Governments Won’t Survive 

As the violence rampages throughout France and other parts of Europe we're seeing shock and confusion from the talking heads, most of which are leftist enablers offering excuses and justifications for this "mostly peaceful" violence and destruction.   And everyone is shocked.... shocked I tell you!  Why?  C'mon man, this is France, and France has been a mess for decades, but that mess is all coming to a head now.  All of this was as predictable as night follows day, because the were warned and none of this is anything new.

This article, "French riots show the future of Joe Biden’s America", was published on July 14, 2023, with the author saying:

As the U.S. deals with the consequences of mass immigration, important lessons can be learned from our oldest European ally.  Over the past few weeks, France has been engulfed in riots after a 17-year-old boy was shot and killed by a police officer during a traffic stop. The rioting and looting have largely been centered in communities with many migrants from North African and Islamic nations. The rioting has caused more than one billion dollars in property damage, and has led to thousands of arrests. It has also led to a renewed debate in Europe about the costs of mass migration and whether or not those costs are worth it.

It’s not just the U.S. that has experienced an influx of foreign nationals in recent years. France took in a record number of migrants in 2022, both legal and illegal. The European Union resettled nearly one million migrants last year, not including refugees from war-torn Ukraine. The main countries of origin for these refugees were Syria, Afghanistan, Turkey, Venezuela, and Columbia. Just as we’ve seen in the U.S., these large influxes of migrants have had a destabilizing effect on the continent’s cultural, economic, and political life. The carnage occurring in France is the result of long-simmering tensions finally coming to the surface. It’s the results of migrants from third-world, war-torn countries not assimilating into their new country, but bringing the baggage from their old countries with them.

This synergy of "migrants" and Marxists is vile to the bone promoting corrupt actions that are totally devoid of decency, morality or honor. In one case a French Antifa activist told a woman that being raped by a "migrant" is merely "collateral damage".  I wonder if all these celebrities coming out in support of these savages would find that acceptable if it was one them being raped? North African migrants have been seen chanting “f*ck France,” and “We’re just here for the welfare!”, and now these welfare states are crumbling right before of our eyes.   And we're shocked why?

Finally, someone in France miraculously grew a back bone, and are now sending in the military, which they should have done long before this, but the question still remains:  Is it now too late?

Update, 12:51 PM:

1. France Is Gearing Up for Another Massive Wave of Riots -  France is bracing for more protests and riots this weekend. Over the course of the last week, hundreds of thousands of protesters took to the streets across France. What began as demonstrations over deteriorating conditions in public schools quickly expanded into protests over the cost of living. Many descended into riots, with opportunists looting stores, setting fire to historic buildings, and clashing with law enforcement......

1. Think Europe’s Chaos Can’t Happen Here? It’s Already Being Planned - That headline might seem a bit provocative, but it’s serious. Because while the violence across Europe has been described as “student protests,” it is anything but that. In fact, it’s a calculated effort by highly organized and well-financed extreme left groups to sow anarchy across Western civilization. Here in the U.S., the hard-left Democratic Party has all but declared it’s no longer a party of working-class people and middle-class taxpayers. It’s dominated by the Democratic Socialists of America and closely allied and networked with the global movement to destroy capitalism and impose socialism. An exaggeration? Nope........

Update, 10/24/26:  

1. Netanyahu: ‘Invasion of extremist Islam’ will ‘devour France’ and ‘devour Europe’ - If anyone understands about the jihad, it’s Israel. The tiny Jewish state has been struggling against Muslim bullies since the day of its founding, before anyone could accuse it of “occupying” territories that supposedly belong to the Palestinians, or of torture of detainees, the targeting civilians, and other such nonsense. The new Jewish state was all too aware of the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Amin al-Husseini, aka “Hitler’s Mufti,” and his alliance with Hitler and Eichmann to keep Jews out of the region of their ancestry.........................Remember the adage: First the Saturday people, then the Sunday people. Islamic jihadis have been rampaging through Africa, often targeting Christians, “the Sunday people.” There are also the historic Islamic campaigns on the Indian subcontinent in a centuries-long pursuit of bloody jihadi expansion. In fact, the jihadis haven’t given up to this day, and frequently continue to engage in battle with India, particularly along the Kashmir line of control. This should show the willfully blind in the West just how determined Islam is..........
2. Self-Defence Weapons Sales Surge in Paris Ahead of Anticipated Riots - Firearms dealers in Paris have reported a massive surge in sales of non-lethal deterrents, including high-powered pepper spray guns, as shopkeepers reportedly stock up on telescopic batons, baseball bats, and iron bars ahead of anticipated trouble on Saturday.......
3. The Mess France Has Made of Itself — Again - Evil will always — always — take advantage of any weakness or hesitancy it perceives in goodness. Evil can do things that good can’t because evil has no conscience, no standards, no stopping point. ............Since 1789, and its “enlightened” revolution, France has had five constitutions and 13 changes of government. It lost its monarchy to a guillotine in 1792 — leftist violence. It then very briefly tried a republic, which was a disaster, and ended up with the Napoleonic Empire, which barely lasted 15 years itself. Eventually, France settled on a republic again and has tried to be one ever since, with varying degrees of success. So, its current problems aren’t surprising, nor, historically, would another change of its form of government be a shock. History. Something most people forget or know nothing about.........
4. Macron Forced to Walk Back Claim Trappes Shooting Was First Religious Motivated Terror Attack in France -  Speaking to the press from Trappes, President Emmanuel Macron asserted that the attack was a “turning point” for France, claiming that “this is the first time there has been a planned terrorist act to kill our fellow citizens, our children, because of their skin colour or the religion they are given”.  This claim faced immediate and swift pushback on social media, with users and politicians citing numerous instances of Islamic terrorists killing people because of their religion, particularly those of Jewish and Christian faith........

Update, 10/26/26:

1. French Officials Unable to Determine Who Surrenders First in Ongoing Unrest - French authorities said they have been unable to establish which side yields first when rioters and government officials confront one another. The question has been added to a short list of unresolved matters that includes the sound of one hand clapping and the order of the chicken and the egg. President Emmanuel Macron described recent crowd-control efforts as inconclusive. “We tried skunk-scented water cannons,” he said. “It improved the body odor of the people being sprayed. They appeared more comfortable afterward.”........
2.   France: ‘We Have Plundered Everything in the Name of Allah’ - Emmanuel Macron couldn’t be wrong, could he? “People have claimed that we were invaded by hordes of migrants and Islamists, which is totally false,” insists French President Emmanuel Macron, who maintains that the riots that have engulfed France are simply plaintive calls for better-quality schools and a higher standard of living. He has also admonished the world that “we should never mix up peaceful protesters with looters and rioters, because there are people who rightfully feel that fuel prices are going too high. It’s because of the Iran war.”  The far-left Macron was slapping back at two of his bêtes noires, U.S. President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Trump has written: “What’s happening in France is nothing less than out of control mass migration. This isn’t about schools, this is about Islam wanting to take over a once great Country!”..................
