France is Not a Western Country Anymore
By Guy Milliere

French-bashing is everywhere in the American media. I am French,
and I
must
say if Americans knew completely what's happening in France, the
French-bashing would be far harsher.
Jacques Chirac has been a friend of Saddam Hussein for more than
thirty
years. He allowed the sale of nuclear facilities to Iraq that were
destroyed just in time by Israכl. He sold Iraq the planes that
were
been
used to gas thousands of Kurds. And Saddam is not the only friend
Chirac
has. Chirac has never met a ruthless dictator he did not like.
Worse,
Chirac is unprincipled and greedy. It is common knowledge in
France
that
he
stole a lot of money when he was the mayor of Paris, and everyone
knows
that if he had not been re-elected in May 2002, he would be in
jail
now.
To
hear him speaking about morality or international law nauseates
every
decent Frenchman.
And Chirac is not the only politician of this stripe in France.
These
days,
it is becoming hard to find a French politician ready to speak
about
human
rights, freedom or democracy. All of them seem to have the same
speechwriter or to belong to the same totalitarian political
party; all
of
them are anti-American, anti-Israeli and "pacifists." They regard
Western
civilization as something filthy and abhorrent.
If you read the newspapers, it's the same. At times it seems the
only
difference between the Soviet Union twenty years ago and France
today
is
that in Soviet Union you had only one Pravda, and in France you
now
have
at
least ten such propaganda outlets: Different titles, same content.
Their
party line is clear in reporting on the personalities found in the
present
Middle Eastern crisis. Saddam Hussein, the "President of Iraq"?
Well,
maybe
he has been brutal, but you know, in "those" countries... George
W.
Bush?
He's a "moron" - a former alcoholic, who has become a crazy
fanatic, in
fact the most dangerous man on the face of earth. Ariel Sharon? A
fascist
who loves to kill Arabs. Arafat? A great freedom fighter. When an
American
general speaks, it is merely propaganda, but when Tariq Aziz
pontificates,
it is pure truth. Almost everyday you hear anti-Semitic remarks,
to
boot.
The anti-Semitism has created a threat to the physical safety for
French
Jews. Almost every week, some Jews get mugged, simply for being
Jews.
Almost nobody pays attention to it. When an anti-Semitic act is so
disgusting it is impossible to hide it, journalists will speak of
"confrontation between communities." When confronted with the
reality
that
these "confrontations" are always Muslims attacking Jews, the
editorial
response: "Just because there has yet to be a single documented
case of
a
Jew attacking a Muslim yet doesn't mean it will never happen. . .
."
And Jews are not the only victims of France's new identification
with
radical Islam. In many French cities with a growing radical
Islamist
population, no teenage girl can go out in the evening, at least
not
without
a full burqa. If she does, it will mean that "she is for
everybody": in
short, a whore. In the same cities, every teenage girl -
regardless of
religion - has to wear the Muslim veil if she does not want to be
harassed
or killed. Almost every month, a young woman is mugged and raped
in a
suburb of a big city. Gang rape has become so frequent that a new
word,
used by the rapists themselves to define their hideous actions, is
used
by
everybody: tournantes (revolving). To the rapists, the woman is
nothing
,
a
mere object to be thrown away after use. The people who speak
about
"revolving" seem to forget a human being is involved as the
victim.
Policemen do nothing. Every decent person knows the problem is
Islam,
but
no one dares to say it. It could be dangerous. The streets are not
safe.
One year ago, a French Muslim decided to create a new business: he
was
tired of seeing people drinking Coca-Cola - all this money going
to
Americans! He found a factory and started to produce Mecca Cola.
On the
label, he put a picture of the Al Aqsa mosque, with a large part
of his
profits would help to support the Palestinian cause. In some
suburbs of
Paris, Coca-Cola has disappeared; Mecca Cola has replaced it. A
few
days
ago, another Muslim businessman announced he will start to sell
Muslim-Up.
It will have the taste of Sprite or Seven-Up, but it will be a
Muslim
drink
- and naturally the profits will go to the Palestinian jihad, as
well.
Three radio stations in France are Muslim radio stations, and if
you
listen
to them, dedicated to broadcasting the voice of hate and racism
all day
long. One radio station belongs to a friend of the rightist
Jean-Marie
Le
Pen, and curiously, if you listen to it, you will hear the same
voice
of
hate and racism. Rightists and radical Muslims have discovered
they
have
many things in common.
If you want to understand why all this is happening, you have to
understand
one thing: thirty years ago, French governments started to have a
new
foreign policy. They called this new policy, "Arabian Policy."
France
became closer to Arab countries - all of them disgusting
dictatorships.
France "benefited" by doing business easily in these countries. In
exchange, France had to push Europe to unknot its ties with Israכl
and
the
United States. In exchange too, "professors" came from the Arabian
dictatorships to teach the Arabic language to the young Arabs
living in
France. The only book they used to teach the Arabic language was
THE
book,
Al Kuran.
Now comes the time to pay the check: six million Muslims live in
France,
at
least ten per cent of them are radical Islamists poised on the
edge of
violence. And these radical Muslims have allies on both the
extreme
Left
and the extreme Right. France is not a Western country anymore, it
is
now
the leader of the Arab/Muslim world. Israel has to know France is
its
main
enemy. The United States has to understand they have nothing to
expect
from
today's France except nastiness, treason, and cheating.
