French fries


I heard a Frenchman actually use the phrase "civil war" the other day, while commenting on the "unrest." The French army possesses one of the best tanks in the world, the LeClerc. It’s one of the finest tanks on-line, and I will avoid the joke about the five reverse gears. They should use them. I forget the name assigned to their armored cars, but they are pretty fearsome, too. I think there's a chance we'll see some of the latter on the streets of Paris before this is over. More likely, we'll see some feeble attempts at appeasement, and ongoing denial from all over that this is part of the jihad against the West. Instead, we'll continue to hear the blathering about "cultural assimilation." I grow weary of hearing the garbage about these kids being second-generation Islamic refugees who aren't accepted fully in France and can't go home to Algeria, or wherever. Here's a not-so-nuanced suggestion that would horrify the snail-eaters: Call out the military, round up everyone on the streets after the government-imposed curfew, and deport their young asses back to the country of their parents' origin. Lethal force is authorized. Since the French government is accustomed to acting unilaterally - while denouncing us for doing the same; or so they claim - if the receiving countries don't want the rioting children of Islam, the French can simply threaten to enforce the deportations with the Foreign Legion, et. al.

I can dream, can't I?

I'm waiting for the violence to spread further in Germany. I want see some of that good German pragmatism in action...if they have any left. They need to get over the guilt about the Third Reich that prevents them from doing anything decisive in today's world. Maybe they could form a coalition with the French on deporting all these disaffected jihadists. Better still, the ESU [European Socialist Union] can all form a coalition. Eurabia is on the march and those ninnies better wake up over there.

There has been a proposal about "land for peace." I see that as a more likely—and frightening—possibility than use of military force to end the French civil war. Islam views all Westerners—even our imperialist selves—as being too weak to resist the jihad. Can you imagine our reaction if something like Paris broke out here? (They don't call those folks "The National Guard" for nothing, and they're getting some good OJT in Iraq.) On the other hand, can you imagine what the reaction might be if the jihadists wait until Hillary is President, and then try to start their intifada in America? Which state would we trade to them, as an autonomous enclave, in return for temporary peace? And how would we then deal with the hordes of terrorists, trained in that enclave, who would spread out through the rest of the country?

I can have nightmares, too, can't I?

The longer the rioting in Europe goes on, with the attendant rhetoric that the Frogs simply don't understand, accept, and appreciate the insurgents in Paris, the angrier I become. I think the nadir came on FOX News a couple of days ago. There was some young priest in Paris, in full frock and collar, making the usual excuses and denials about what's happening there. He said he'd been to some of the local schools, and talked with young Muslims who all disavowed the riots. Unfortunately for Father Whoever's credibility, the camera crew had accompanied him, and got some footage of his encounters with Islamic youth. He was talking with girls! They were sans headscarves, per French law. In fact, they were dressed in modest Western-style clothing. They were all smiles and giggles, and assured the good Father that Islam is a religion of peace...yadda, yadda. But they were all girls! I assume my readers know the standing of women in Islam. Their standing is actually sitting at the feet of the men. If Father Whoever wanted the real skinny on what's driving the jihadists, he should've been out walking the suburban streets after dark, strolling up to those ski-masked insurgents while they're torching cars, hospitals, and every other target of opportunity. Can you picture this young fool of a priest, in his traditional clerical garb, trying to open a "meaningful dialogue of understanding" with a punk in a ski mask, Molotov cocktail in hand, and possibly a pistol under his jacket? I've read some scary stuff about Catholic martyrs, and what happened to them at the hands of heathens. No wonder Father was talking to Westernized Islamic girls in the bright light of day. I suppose he had no desire to join that long list stretching through history...not when he could be on TV, instead.


Ramadan Offensive ’05 is underway. Those who defend our schizophrenic border policies should be taking notes. While I advocate President Bush holding his silence on most of the racket raised by his opponents, he should take a decisive stance on the policies that have France burning. True cowboys hold their ground where it firms up under their feet, and simple answers are usually the best ones. Most of the mojados pouring into America are trying to escape the corruption of the Mexican government, and want to be part of the dream, not destroy it. The five who smuggle an Atomic Demolitions Munition, purchased from the former Soviet Union on the cheap, are the ones who will poison the immigration well for everyone. It’s tough toenails for the illegal aliens, but the border has to be closed to everyone, before Cleveland disappears in an atomic mushroom. The American dream does not include nuclear terrorism, and that spectre is riding the coat tails of those desperate people who brave the deserts to walk into America on a daily basis.

For all potential Americans: line up, get a green card, and do it properly. For the French: reap what you sowed. French fries has a whole new meaning today.

Sorta off topic. Did you hear about the United States Military Cemetary where anti-war protesters were allowed to go in and place 2000 WHITE
flags on the soldiers graves? This was shortly after the # went to 2000. Well, the local VFW decided those Flags, desecrating those graves, should come out of there for Veteran's Day. When the cemetary said "no" the VFW guys went in and started to remove them. THEY were arrested and face big fines. Has everyone lost their minds?

Possum,

We should do the French a favor and send a bona fide war hero over to help. He already knows the language and is familiar with the country (at least the southern coastal areas). I'm talking about John Kerry, a true fighting man!

It was 30+ years ago when someone within earshot first called the French "the whores of the world."

I haven't heard or seen anything in the meantime to mitigate that opinion. There are exceptions among the general population, as there are exceptions to every rule.

On the whole, however, I find myself unabashedly loathing the French in every aspect.

Possum, WOW!! What a powerful entry ! And just the suggestion that they might start their "revolution" on U.S. soil under the administration of Hillary Clinton or anyone like her made me feel FEAR. Those people are still fighting a proper memorial for the victims of Sept. 11.- I thought I had bookmarked it, but can't locate it right now. However, once they lost the battle to fight turning the proposed memorial into a multi-cultural celebration, the are now derailing funds(tax dollars) to finance OTHER multi cultural "celebrations". God blee America. LOVED the blog, Possum. It's gonna be a read and re-read and re-read for me.:)

I heard on the local radio the other day that the Coast Guard only has one boat patrolling the St. Clair River (between MI and CA) from the base of Lake Huron to the Detroit River (this includes Lake St. Clair). It can take up to 2 hours to get from one end to the other. I could row a boat across in about 20 minutes. WTF?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Not to mention the legions of Canadian garbage trucks and the Canadian nuclear waste that come into my state every day.

As to the millions of illegal Mexicans in this country, the excuse/reasoning that there are just too many of them to effectively deport (too expensive) just makes me sick. I'm STILL pissed off that W called the Minute Men in AZ 'vigilantes' for doing what is needed to protect our southern border. I say build a big wall down the Rio Grande with sniper towers. Hey, it's working for Israel!

Great post possum! You got my blood boiling.

Couldn't agree more with you. Keep it up. Your wordsmith is fully appreciated.

Hey Possum,

Love the pic. Everything else is "icing on the cake" as they say. I agree with about 99.4% of everything you say (just about "Ivory pure"). And you have such a great way of putting things! You're a real bard.

Best regards,
Hawkeye®

And get this: France has a news blackout on the events because their media feel it gives the right wing too many talking points. That's the ticket! Tailor your media to doublespeak the news; clamp down on Internet sharing of what is really happening, and Voila! a government that "knows best" is in power. I'll bet Madame Hillary can't wait.

And what is McCain pulling here with his sorry "torture" amendment?

I ain't too happy being Red in a Blue state as it is.

If you go to newsbusters.org you can watch a video clip of a CNN talking head idiot. I forgot her name. Anyway, she called the two teenagers who were killed in France "African-American."

Great picture, Hooey! I should overcome my nausea and check this little blog more often!

I'm more ruthless than you, Hooey. I see tanks and armored cars in the streets. Just in time for the subliminally Christian holiday of Thanksgiving, the kids have calmed down for a few. To whom do we give thanks, and how long before that tradition of gratitude to God for blessings bestowed is attacked?

Does anyone besides me remember the "Mods" and "Rockers" who gave birth to The Who? The Paris riots of the Sixties? Ecclesiates is not my favorite book of The Bible for no reason; there truly is nothing new under the sun.

Well, France has pulled a news blackout on its pre-holiday season "luminaria" for some time now. (Surely the French government appeasement program hasn't kicked in yet!) Have the presses at United Possums International stopped out of sympathetic mourning?
