Where's Charles Martel When You Need Him?

You may have heard this joke:

"Hey, I got my cat neutered. Now he's French."

The French are getting a lot of bad press these days from Americans, some of it deserved, some of it not. The Arab riots aren't helping.

There was a time very long ago when the French stood up to Arab invaders. At the Battle of Tours in 732 AD, Charles Martel's Frankish army defeated a much larger Arab army and saved Western Europe and Christianity, according to many historians.

During the past several years the French have been concerned about the "Americanization" of France. They have rallied against McDonalds and other symbols of American capitalism. Too bad they weren't concerned about the "Arabization" of their land.

The French Leftists are stupid people. Perhaps out of colonial guilt, they have let large numbers of Arabs into their country. In America, immigrants assimilate over time, because people come to America to live the American dream. (If they don't assimilate, at least their kids do.) But people don't generally immigrate to France to become French. These Arabs, by and large, live sequestered in separate communities. Compounding this problem are French Leftists whose economic and social policies breed dependence, not responsibility.

Hopefully, the French and other European countries, and even the United States, realize - before it's too late - the errors of ethnic immigration of peoples without shared religions, cultures, or national interests. It's time for them (and us) to stop the immigration and start the deportation.

In the late 1980s I was privileged to read a report that detailed how the Soviets had developed an extensive network throughout Europe in the transportation sector. The Soviets, through the trucking industry and railroads, could clandestinely move people, goods and equipment easily throughout Europe. There were even reports that the Soviets had truck-sized microwave weapons that could be transported to areas throughout Europe, to be used against NATO facilities and personnel in the case of a Soviet invasion. Though Arab extremists don't have microwave weapons, they have a bunch of other stuff, and it's probable they have similar clandestine transportation/smuggling networks throughout Europe.
