La lépenisation des esprits, c'est aussi ça !

The Paris soccer mob resulted in 1 dead and 1 injured and hospitalized (both from gunfire). The injured hooligan is Mounir Bouchaer, member of the Gavroches de Boulogne who goes by the nickname "Francis", a prime example of a new violent strain of second generation, anti-Semitic, ultra-nationalism now corsing its way through the clogged arteries French society. These are the suburban French youth that put Le Pen atop the Skyrock Presidential polls earlier this year. These are the suburban French youth who have paved the way for Dieudonné's crossover to the Nationalist far right. These are the suburban French youth who are flocking to Le Pen in response to his visceral anti-Semitism and anti-Americanism. These are suburban French youth who will vote for the far right during next April's Presidential elections.

New Europe flexes its muscles

Chiraq once told Poland and other New Europe countries to "shut up", but the newer EU members are doing a world of good by dragging the EU, albeit kicking and screaming, into the real world.

En Fwance , la vie est un long fleuve de moments Fofana

Everytime a Jew is tortured and killed or hunted down in the street by a lynch mob the French act surprised that their country has turned into a 1930's style anti-Semitic hellhole. Not that they will do anything to change it. It suits them just fine.

The main hate blog read by suburban French youth (ie. Fofana idolizing crazed animals) gets to the root of the problem by asking "What's an Israeli team doing in a UEFA Cup match anyway?". It's a provocation! And after the provocation, as always, comes the humiliation. Paris lost 4-2.

Boulogne Boys

A Paris-Saint-Germain hooligan was killed by police outside the Parc des Prince stadium where Paris-Saint-Germain was playing against Hapoël of Tel-Aviv. An undercover policeman, after rescuing a Tel-Aviv fan from a mob of approximately 150 Paris-Saint-Germain hooligans, fired into the mob while fighting them off. The mob then chased the undercover policeman into a McDonalds at the Porte Saint Cloud when other police arrived at the scene. As per standard French mob behavior, the McDonalds was trashed.

Double Plus Ungood

The very Orwellian French preSS, always quick to make use of its favorite bogeyman -- the "far right" (extrème droite) -- every time it attempts to drum up something sinister, has completely forgotten that there is a no less sinister "far left" (extrème gauche). Curiously, the "far left" has vanished from the official State Party Line©® vocabulary, and has been replaced by "the left of the left" (la gauche de la gauche) and "anti-capitalist left" (la gauche antilibérale).

Why he blogs (Part I)

Why he writes, what are his passions, what brought him to Paris, why there really is no dialogue about the modern world in France...

NYSE offers to play hardball with Euronext on equal footing

It's that sick French mentality. When an opportunity is perceived as a threat.

Which is the Greater Threat?

…to the world as we know it?

Islamist terrorists or American capitalists?

French authorized to fire on Israeli planes.

With All the Clarity and Resolve of a Suicide Bomber

Walter Williams on Euro-nomics:

What's the European response to its self-made economic malaise? They don't repeal the laws that make for a poor investment climate. Instead, through the Paris-based Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), they attack low-tax jurisdictions. Why? To support its welfare state, European nations must have high taxes, but if Europeans, as private citizens and businessmen, relocate, invest and save in other jurisdictions, it means less money is available to be taxed.

The real outcome of all of this for the European population? People get shafted:

Government spending exceeds 50 percent of the GDP in France and Sweden and more than 45 percent in Germany and Italy , compared to U.S. federal, state and local spending of just under 36 percent. Government spending encourages people to rely on handouts rather than individual initiative, and the higher taxes to finance the handouts reduce incentives to work, save and invest. The European results shouldn't surprise anyone. U.S. per capita output in 2003 was $39,700, almost 40 percent higher than the average of $28,700 for European nations.

Over the last decade, the U.S. economy has grown twice as fast as European economies. In 2006, European unemployment averaged 8 percent while the U.S. average was 4.7 percent. What's more, the percentage of Americans without a job for more than 12 months was 12.7 percent while in Europe it was 42.6 percent. Since 1970, 57 million new jobs were created in the U.S., and just 4 million were created in Europe.

Produce less, and you have less to redistribute anyway! But if they remove the “profit motive” to do things and eventually get to the point where the state, (whoever that is and whoever it taxes to do things) ends up being the only and controlling entrepot of feeding, clothing, and housing people, what does it matter?

In the meanwhile, John Rosenthal reports on Le Figaro selective use of the active voice and a hostile tone, one reminiscent of a weird joyous élan, but only against the right kind of bugbears of their obsession, and fear that someone is trying to “move their cheese”. The story is wedged between a non-news fluff piece about “diversity” and a security threat that gets the usual downplayed treatment so as not to scare (or inform) anyone.

This American seizure of control is worrying. In an interview with Le Figaro, Henri Lachmann, who is writing a report on the subject for major French corporations, demands that the process of rapprochement between Euronext and the NYSE be stopped.

Run Out Of Things To Ban Yet?

Apparently there's more than one way to skin a cat. EU to ”take action” on the trade in cat and dog fur.

Puke-worthy as the notion is, they present no data on whether the neighbor’s Pomeranian is actually becoming a cuff lining. Methinks Madame’s cloak fringe doesn’t quite have the sentimental value of letting a taxidermist have a go at Fido.

“They do not find it acceptable to farm cats and dogs for their fur, nor do they want products containing such fur sold on the European market.” But the EU has done nothing to heed popular calls for a ban on fox, rabbit or mink furs.

The UK NGO Advocates for Animals estimates that more than half the world’s mink are bred in Scandinavia - where there are more than 10,000 fur factory farms. “Two thirds of all fox bred for fur come from Finland,” the NGO added in a statement.

In other words, the ban on pelts from Minks, Fox, Nutrias, rat or whatever other creatures bred for the purpose are ignored. Failing that, they try to ban something else that might once and for all prove the reflex to control people a success.


Come on, punk. Make my day.

Cause: The Usual Pointless Petty Duplicity

For those of you out there trying to decrypt what’s really going on in Iraq through the fog of the mainstream media’s coverage, all you have to do is look at their slightly less biased reporting of the murder of Industry Minister Pierre Gemayel in Lebanon. Gemayel is the son of former President Amin Gemayel, and the nephew of Bashir Gemayel, assassinated as President elect.

Someone or other is engaging in violence to do one of the following:

- Buck for position.
- Start another Civil War.
- Announce that they could start another civil war.
- Threaten the Christians that they could take out people who are dearer to them if they don’t play dead.

Either that or Hizballah is telling the Syrians that they wont have any of that “decent global citizen” stuff that they might be trying to reign them in for. It also doesn’t hurt to smack them now that there is some possible statesmanship to get in on, when all concerned would prefer that Syria take up a junior membership in the “axis of evil”.The Fuse is Lit (No Pasaran!)

Now Appearing on Appeasement TV

Robert Redeker tells M6 that he’s moved and has had to sell his home. The risk to him is permanent in nuance-land:

Redeker wrote, "As in the Cold War, where violence and intimidation were the methods used by an ideology hell bent on hegemony, so today Islam tries to put its leaden mantel all over the world. Benedict XVI's cruel experience is testimony to this. Nowadays, as in those times, the West has to be called the 'Free World' in comparison to the Muslim world; likewise, the enemies of the 'Free World,' the zealous bureaucrats of the Koran's vision, who swarm in the very center of the 'Free World,' should be called by their true name."

In reaction to Redeker's column, Egypt banned Le Figaro and Redeker received numerous death threats. His address and maps to his home were published on al-Qaida-linked Web sites and he was forced to leave his job, and flee for his life. While Redeker e-mailed a colleague that French police have set free the man they know was behind the threats to his life, Redeker recently described his plight to a friend in the following fashion, "There is no safe place for me, I have to beg, two evenings here, two evenings there... I am under the constant protection of the police. I must cancel all scheduled conferences."

In the mean time, the predicted numbness over the Socialist Party is setting in. The issue at hand posed to these folks is “would you vote for Ségolène Royal (reduced to a single name, much like Prince) because she’s a woman?” Well... we’re talking about the sort of things that Europeans fret over. By looking for something painless to fret over they don’t think they’ve wasted their vote, so the comfortable thing is taken seriously and they feel ‘hooked in’. Yes, many people indeed would vote for someone just because they’re female.
For many, the concept of equality amounts to silly, feel-good acts of that sort.

The balance of the babble is about the environment, geared perfectly to play into the hands of the left in a positive, yet impoverishing way. Like Prince, sooner or later all populist politicians will become little more than a glyph.

Meanwhile, a bit of publicized personal controversy changes the election equation for the moment. Economic liberal candidate Philippe de Villiers’ son has accused his brother of raping and molesting him as a child.

Quoted in Nouvel Obs:

The facts of the case go back fifteen years when both boys were minors. The two brothers faced an investigating magistrate last Thursday who also compel an investigation of the credibility of the younger brother, the author of a complaint dated October 30 against his older brother. An expert for the court determined that the plaintiff’s complaint was “credible”.
Under investigation for rape, Guillaume de Villiers was placed in custody. He is married and the father of three.
“It is my son who is being investigated. He had been the target an undercover investigation for several months over giving me confidential documents for my book “The Mosques of Roissy” to be precise”

Though it’s really to soon to say that this will knock the best-known figure of his Mouvement pour la France party out of the race for good, it doesn’t help. It would, however, split the votes he would otherwise take from the UMP. I suspect that people with a genuine interest in individual freedom, less government micromanagement of people’s lives, and lower taxation, would not be readily attracted to a traditionally nativist, tariff and trade-barrier oriented party like Le Pen’s FN.
