Chirac keeps low profile as French riots continue

Paris, Nov 8 Jacques Chirac used to speak with passion about France’s widening gap between privileged and poor and tell how he would fight rising crime. That was when he was running for president in 1995 and re-election in 2002.

Now that France faces a spreading revolt by poor young men in its grimy suburbs and sees cars, shops and schools firebombed nightly, Chirac has kept almost completely out of sight.

Chirac, who regularly addresses the nation on television on other issues, has made only one public appearance so far, saying on Sunday he was determined to restore order. Announcing steps such as authorising curfews are left to his ministers.This low profile has reinforced the impression that he and his conservative government have few options for answering the challenge the unrest has presented to its policies for fighting joblessness, crime and social exclusion.

“The absence of the president is remarkable in this period we’re going through,� Francois Bayrou, head of the centrist Union of French Democracy (UDF) party, said on Tuesday.

“He was elected on the issues of the social fracture in 1995 and of crime in 2002. And the least we can say is that what’s happening in the suburbs goes to the heart of these issues.�This long silence has not gone unnoticed in the rundown housing estates where rioters, many of them French-born citizens of Arab and African descent, charge that the state ignores the unemployment and racial discrimination they face.

But the French are celebrating their "rich cultural diversity" by having "alternate expressions of opinion."

Yes they are but it will be the same in all the countries that have fallen victim to this Globalist Agenda.

Conflict is inevitable when a nation is filled with foreign nationals who are there solely for economic gain.

Society views the "anchor baby" the same as an illegal and there without permission or welcome.

While it is not the fault of the "anchor baby", this is reality and they need to return to their native land with the parents who brought this upon them and exit France.

Chirac is a craven coward. His country is under attack and he pulls a typical French move, duck and run for cover. If I were a Frenchmen, I would be outright embarrassed to have him as my leader. His leadership is an abomination. Sad part is Bush is no better and I would expect the same thing from him if we were attacked here. The West is so done if it doesn't collectively pull it's head out of the sand.

Dman1200 - "The West is so done if it doesn't collectively pull its head out of the sand".

SO TRUE!!

We are all in this together, all the developed free nations.

We are the target nations of the Globalists.

The whole concept of Globalism is to take from the developed free nations and give to the undeveloped Third World Nations, free or not.

It is all about "redistribution of income and assets" to make the whole world a globe of masses in employed poverty reporting to a handful of Elites running the show.

Wake Up France!! Wake Up England!! Wake Up Canada!! Wake Up Russia!! Wake Up Germany!!

Wake Up USA!!
