A new poll has found that a majority of French people support the sentiments expressed in a letter signed by active duty and retired members of the military warning that the country is heading towards a “civil war” caused by failed multiculturalism and attacks on French identity.Around 1,000 servicemembers signed the letter, including 20 retired generals, warning President Emmanuel Macron of “several deadly dangers” threatening France, including “Islamism and the hordes of the banlieue,” a reference to the fractured suburbs around major cities with high crime and immigrant populations.

The American Revolution started in 1776. The French Revolution started about 23 years later.
A recent writer said "history doesn't repeat itself, but it often rhymes"....which struck me as kind of humorous, and vaguely sensible.
We may be nearing a civil war here, and it looks like the French are nearing their breaking point, too. In the late 1700s we were getting rid of kings, now it would be globalists and one world Communist types....the successors to the kings, and some of the old royal families of Europe are still involved in the current globalist stuff, too.
'Old Chinese curse', which I first heard about 1966 when I was a teen.
"May you live in interesting times.”
Yep, we ARE living in interesting times, and likely to get a lot more interesting, unfortunately. I would rather not go through this, but the insane left and tyrannical globalists are very insistent.
Please remember to close any italics code.

Damn near everyone in today's woke enlightened world is both ignorant of history and in denial about the innate sinfulness of mankind especially themselves. We have seen pogroms, Holocausts, ethnic cleansing, Stalin's Holodomor, and many other examples of man's evil. Europeans have forgotten the centuries of wars their forebears waged to establish national identities and RELIGIOUS FREEDOMS throwing out those who even today seek to reverse those efforts. Just as we see here in the USA with our anti-American, atheist/agnostic leftists, European dimwits not only welcomed back to their own continent huge numbers of Islamists but they, while pretending to hold Islam in high esteem, isolated these immigrants in high-unemployment, crime-ridden ghettoes. And then wonder why anger and terrorist violence runs rampant. The only way that culture and a nation can be won back is by violence or the promise of its use. That is what will happen here - only this time it won't be North vs South. It will be much worse.

I am not French by any means. However, were I visiting France, or had I decided to live there, I would try to adapt as much as possible. I would respect their traditions or at least not comment on them negatively if I disagreed. I would be the guest. I should treat my host with respect.
If I decided to become a French citizen, I would find it my responsibility to acclimate to French culture. I wouldn't change my religion, but I wouldn't try to push Anglicanism on Roman Catholics. Doing otherwise would be rude and unfair to the French natives.

We, by God, owe it to our foremothers and fathers to be willing to fight and die for the gift of liberty bequeath to us.

The French are being pushed, as are we.
Donald Trump tried his best to stop it, but he needed another 4 years.
Trump was not doing it on his own he had the backing of Petriots. A backing he still has.
Biden and this pack of FOOLS running the country now are just a passing phase that will go down hard when we get tired of them.

I spent a several days touring Normandy, a couple of days with a guide, a very pleasant, extremely knowledgeable retired British army sergeant. He had developed numerous close relationships with local French people, some who were amazingly serious history buffs, one with a impressive small personal museum of artifacts of the Normandy landings and the fighting afterwards.
We had a few private moments to discuss guns, after a he had found that I knew guns, the history of the firearms used on both sides. I asked "What ever happened to all the huge quantities of guns, rifles, machine guns, submachine guns, handguns, etc that wound up on dead soldiers and just got lost, etc.?" He said,"A lot were turned in, but more were carefully cleaned, greased and wrapped for long term storage. Just in case " I asked, "do they still have them?", and he winked and said, "Sometimes the police find out and confiscate a few of them.....but the policemen have the very best personal collections."
And it turned out that my new friend had bought a US carbine which had been recently discovered in the hay loft of a barn, left by some GI during the fighting after the landing. I asked if it was legal and he laughed, and winked again, and said, "Hah, ....but it shoots fine after a good cleaning and oiling. Had a fine coating of rust, didn't hurt it."
So, if they decide to go at it again....the "disarmed French" may not be nearly as disarmed as most people imagine.
I have met many very friendly Frenchmen, and a few total jerks. The jerks are much more prevalent in Paris. Elsewhere most people are wonderful. I truly wish them well. The French were a crucial piece of the USA winning our freedom from the Brits. Never forget Lafayette, Rochambeau and Compte De Grasse. We owe them a lot, although we paid back much in 1917-18 and 1944-45.

The French are getting tired of “diversity” as well.
Diversity means conflict.

And for those superior, yet uninformed, folks who imagine that all Frenchmen and women are cowards, I suggest some time in the military museum in Paris, Les Invalides. There is a section with many displays of the sabotage that the Maquis and Resistance carried out. And several cases of artifacts of individual spies who carried out missions against the Nazis, sadly most ending with the date that they were captured and killed. They caused a lot of mayhem behind lines and interfered with the Nazis greatly. And read the stories of many downed American airmen who were smuggled to Spain by many, many Frenchmen and women, at risk to their own lives.
A friend was a US Army LtCol in the SpecOps command structure about 15 years ago, and he said to never make the mistake of assuming that French SpecOps weren't as skilled as any others in the world, he had worked with them and was impressed. Their leaders may be problematic....as our ours, many times, but not so much the troops, from what I have been told by people I trust.

Do not judge the French by Parisiens any more than you should judge the United States by New Yorkers….They treasure their freedom. And their history.
