Thirteen years ago, in 2002, I warned that we would soon become “La Prochaine France,” the Next France, in the column I’m reprinting below. As I said then, French immigration policies were so lax that even French authorities didn’t know how many Muslims were in their midst, but at that point it was 25% to a third of the French population (though the numbers I reported in the column then were the “official stats” and were much lower percentages), fast moving to the fifty percent point, which would probably arrive by the year 2025–just a decade from now–or relatively soon thereafter.
At the time, right after the 9/11 attacks, I figured America would follow France in a few generations or at least a few decades. But I was wrong. The rapidity of Islamic immigration and birth rate, and the eager capitulation of our institutions, authorities, media, education, and entertainment to the demands of Muslims have hastened our arrival to becoming the next France. We’ve already had our own Kouachi Brothers (now being called the two “Frenchmen”–Um, NO, THEY. ARE. MUSLIMS.) in the form of the 9/11 hijackers, Nidal Malik Hassan, the Shoe, Times Square, and Undie Bombers, and countless others. I’ve had several very serious death threats, all of them from Muslims. Getting the feds to investigate and do anything about the Muslims in our midst who threatened to rape, torture, and murder me was like pulling teeth. As I’ve recounted time and again on this site, they treated me like the perpetrator and the Muslim would-be rapists, torturers, and murderers of me like the victims.
(And even those on the right attacked me for even reporting the threats to the FBI. Thomas More Law Center lawyer and Michelle Malkin buddy Emily Zanotti thought it was funny and praised and promoted the death threats, comparing me to a “special needs kid” for reporting it to authorities. The American Spectator continues to employ as a blogger this supporter of Islamic murder against me. Rush Limbaugh Guest Host/Red State owner Erick Erickson and Right Wing News/Town Hall columnist John Hawkins praised and promoted Zanotti for doing that, calling it funny and “snarky.” Hawkins was a paid blogger for David Horowitz’s FrontPageMag, and the uber-phony Horowitz continued to pay him and give him a forum, despite Hawkins’ praise for the promotion of Muslim rape, torture, and death threats against me.)
As you read the column, keep in mind that President Bush wanted to institute the same thing that Republicans now pretend they oppose (but do nothing to stop) with President Obama’s announced amnesty plan. And note that Hezbollah supporter and Islam sympathizer Jihad Darrell Issa is a (false) hero of the right because he’s been endlessly elevated, promoted, and drooled over by FOX News and many conservative online media sources, despite doing nothing but empty grandstanding on everything from Benghazi to the IRS with zero results. You should note that under President Bush–in the years since 9/11–the number of mosques in America doubled as did the American Muslim population. And 40% of the American Muslim population growth under Bush was from immigration he and the Republicans did NOTHING to stop while they wasted billions on a useless behemoth called Homeland Security, which seems to care neither about the Homeland (unless that’s Gaza or Riyadh) nor Security.
I marvel as people criticize French law enforcement authorities for not endlessly tailing the Kouachi Brothers, especially Cherif Kouachi who was convicted of trying to join Al-Qaeda in Iraq, which has since become ISIS. (The French said it became too costly to tail him after a while.) We here in America didn’t tail Tamerlan Tsarnaev, despite warnings from Russian intelligence that he was a radical. The lame Valley Girl “excuse” is that, well, the Russians never called us back to give more information. Uh-huh. And the halal dog ate my haram homework. Bush and Obama Administration FBI and Army officials knew about Nidal Malik Hassan’s extremism and jihadist bent, and yet they promoted him every step of the way until the Fort Hood Massacre. This ain’t the frog-eating surrender monkeys. It’s us.
Our Justice Department, FBI, and CIA leaders (both under Obama AND Bush) are partying and hanging out with the most radical Muslim leaders in America, rather than spying on them, even though several of them maintain mosques in Dearbornistan and Dearbornistan Heights where those heavily involved in Hezbollah are recruited and where fundraising and planning for their efforts goes on, all untouched and unwatched by us.
And remember the Undie Bomber? Well, as you may recall, just a few days later, a Muslim “businessman” with no luggage came here on the same flight from the Netherlands and caused a scene on the flight. I know from intelligence sources that the man, who claimed he was coming to Detroit for business, was tailed by American law enforcement authorities to a Washington, DC-area mosque. But then our Keystone Koppers lost him, and we don’t know what he was up to, with whom he met, or where he went.
Yup, we are no different from the French, minus a Croque Monsieur or two (soon to be banished because it has ham in it). We have the same idiocy, the same pathologies as they do–the same idiotic immigration policy, the same idiotic pandering to Islam, the same weak quisling mentality. And we will have (and already have had) the same results as the French.
Will America become La Prochaine France? Yes. It’s just a matter of how quickly. And in some ways–many ways–we are already there.
And, by the way, all of this in France should be no surprise to anyone. But it seems so many have forgotten the annual Muslim rioting and burning of cars by French Muslims, er . . . “youths” (as Fox News called ’em after its large shareholder Prince Alwaleed complained to his buddy Rupert), something that began en masse in 2005 and has continued ever since; that they’ve forgotten the attacks in Toulouse, and the French Muslim’s attack on Jews at the Belgian Museum, etc., etc., ad nauseam. None of this has been a surprise to me, since I warned about it back in 2002 in writing (and well before that on many radio and TV appearances) . . . .
Will America Be the Next France?

Will America be the next France-and become a radical Muslim country?
Or will it remain the home of the free and the brave? Read the rest of this entry »
