#1 The French are in a lot of trouble. They are fast approaching the tipping point for rapid cultural change-over. The Muslims do not have to be anywhere near a majority to cause this. Past examples of this phenomena are the Indo-European invasions, the Germanic infiltration of Gaul in the 300s, and of course the Arab invasions of the 600 and 700's. Contrary to popular imagination, none of these events involved massive hordes, only culturally dynamic minorities. France fits the profile well: a birthrate well below the replacement level, widespread pacifism, a descredited and corrupt ruling elite that the populace has no will to overthrow. They really only have two options left: surrender or genocide. (I consider mass deportations to be genocide; historically, mortality is in the 10-15% range during such tragedies).

#2 Alaska Paul: I think Chirac should be talking to the Pope, not George Bush. Instead of condemning the US for Iraq, the John Paul II should be looking at the menace in his own backyard. The Vatican is too busy fighting the last (cold) war. I know from some rather unorthodox sources that the Church is still expending a lot of resources smuggling funds and materials into Cuba and China. The Jesuits need to be in Sarcelles instead. If neither the Catholics or the evangelicals can muster the will to work toward the conversion of the Muslim lumpen in Europe, then they are utterly spent as a force.

Brutus: Interesting point about the Saudi money. Are there French readers here who know if any structural/legal barriers prevent the construction of mosques in France? Sarkozy's remarks seem to imply the same. My gut feeling is that the Saudi money has been there all along and that it has been funnelled underground (no pun intended) due to some French de jure or de facto prohibition. The French seem to have decided that it is better to have the money in the open rather than flowing though illicit channels. As you point out, they still lose.

He needs some advice and counsel on how to deal with his 5th column before it consumes him

France is the 5th column.
Chiraq is only trying to find a way to get back in Bush's good graces so that he can infiltrate and tear down the US from the inside.
Scum sucker.

#4 Alaska Paul (a/k/a Papa Pasha....my Cyrillic font doesn't work either, drat) -- Why would Chiraq call about advice from us silly cowboys? It is so simplisme. Surrender now, and maybe the women can wear mini-burqas (they get to show their ankles, the flirts!).

#5 Baba Yaga---I was just being humorous and sarcastic. Chiraq knows he is in trouble, but he has neither the brains nor the character to admit it, so he will keep playing the game, like a mediocre chess player against a master, even though everyone knows that it is checkmate in a few more moves.

#6 I thought I was too. Sorry if I offended you, I didn't mean to do that. Maybe I just need to get some sleep.
