On October 17, 2026, riots erupted across France’s largest cities (Paris, Marseille, Lyon, Grenoble, Limoges, etc.). The police were overwhelmed, and the government gave very little support and took almost no action. What started as a students’ revolt for better schools, teachers, and curricula quickly turned into mass looting, destruction, and takeover by people who hate the very country they live in. The needs of young students are no longer on anyone’s radar, if they ever really were.
We are seeing a perfect storm over France and, to a certain extent—if not now, then very soon—over all of Western Europe. That storm is the Red/Green Axis destructive agenda in action. The French Extreme Left Party LFI (La France Insoumise) led by Jean-Luc Mélenchon has partnered with the large community of Muslims living in France–many of them born there and automatically considered as French citizens. Mr. Mélenchon knows that he will never become the French Président. All he wants is chaos, and more chaos, across all of France.
This is the result of decades of open borders and immigration from North and West Africa. I grew up in Paris in the 60s and 70s when immigrants from the Maghreb came to France for a better life. They were given all the jobs that French natives didn’t want. They stayed, had children who had children, and are now at least two generations removed from leaving Algeria, Tunisia, or Morocco.
For the most part, the young ones never assimilated or integrated into the French culture, economy, or society. They stayed together in self-imposed ghettos that for many of them have now become no-go zones where the French police don’t even go. These are the people that the Leftist Party LFI leader is supporting. This is not an attempt at putting all Muslim emigrants into the same category, but we must understand that the current events are Islamic at the core. Nobody wants to talk about the real issue because they are terrified of repercussions from the very people they would have to expose.
Additionally, France is under the grip of the Regulatory Authority for Audiovisual and Digital Communication (ARCOM), established in 2002 to protect freedom of speech. Ironically, ARCOM is very liberal and easily fines individuals and organizations deemed in breach when they use words like “Muslim,” “antisemitism,” or even “immigrant.” The few people with the chutzpah to say something are silenced or heavily fined.
France is burning, and nobody seems to care about extinguishing this fire started because of the woke premise of multiculturalism. Unchecked emigration has been going on for so long that closing borders will be akin to putting a Band-Aid on a cancer wound. France is committing civilizational suicide by tolerance, and it might be too late to stop it, but we must learn from it before it is too late for America!
It all has to do with fear. Fear of change, fear of losing votes, and fear of reprisals.
French people are afraid of the chaos, looting, and destruction, and to an extent, so is the current French government. Change is mandatory if France wants to survive this attack on its republic and on Western civilization by proxy. The solution exists, but it is not popular: Expel those who do not like France and have become urban terrorists. Nobody wants to make such a drastic move within the government, and that is linked to the two other fears.
For the last several decades, one way or another, French politicians have catered to the Muslims of France and even looked the other way when things would start to lean towards Shariah compliance. Not as bad as the UK, but really not too far behind. France also has the largest Muslim community in Western Europe, with 10% of the total population of 66.5M. That is about 6.5M Muslims, and since the acceptable percentage of radicalized individuals is usually 15%, that is only one million radicals. What could possibly go wrong?
To be sure, I am not saying that all Muslims are radicalized, but France must accept that they are under an Islamist invasion. The challenge for the government is that the Muslims have become an unavoidable voting bloc in France. Concessions and promises were made with the hope that votes would be garnered, and they were. Walking away now could cost politicians more than they are willing to pay in the voting booth.
Then there is the fear of reprisals. It seems that wherever a sizable Muslim community has established a stronghold of 10% or more, they become a threat to those around them. Look at Dearborn, Michigan, with over 50% of its 110,000 residents being Muslims. Again, without generalizing, while not all Muslims are pushing for Sharia compliance, many are, and some resort to intimidation and violence, blindly allowed by our misplaced tolerance.
The current situation in France is a symptom of a greater problem: a desire for a global caliphate. The bad apples of radical Islam will use anybody who will facilitate that agenda. That is why we are seeing such successful progress of the Red/Green Axis in Europe and in America. The UK has reached the point of no return; France might have to go through a civil war if the government continues its current momentum of complacency and the French people get angry enough to take to the streets and fight back. I pray that it doesn’t get to that point, but even if France closes the chicken coop and locks it to keep foxes from entering, and secures the coop, many have already entered the coop over the past few decades.
Let’s not fool ourselves; America is not exempt. The same goal to establish a global caliphate exists here and not just in Dearborn, Michigan. Mamdani, El-Sayed, Omar, Tlaib, and Ellison are a few names of individuals who are paving the way for the same takeover to spread all over the USA. We might be further away than France from a Muslim takeover, but our tolerance and desire for multiculturalism are being weaponized against us as well.
Incidentally, before anyone calls me a racist for being an Islamophobe, just remember that Islam is not a race, but an ideology. Radical Islam scares me, and it should scare you. That is what phobia means.
In Sunday school, kids are often taught that “The answer is Jesus!” In this story, more than any other story, the answer IS Jesus (Isaiah 52-23-53-12, John 3:16).
