'Civil war is brewing': Serving French soldiers send Macron another chilling warning following earlier letter from retired generals calling for military action against 'Islamists'
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Open letter by a group of serving French soldiers published late on Sunday

  • Soldiers warn Macron that the 'survival' of France is at stake after he made 'concessions' to Islamism

  • It echoes the tone of a similar letter printed last month which warned of civil war

  • The previous letter, signed by 1,000 people including serving officers and some 20 semi-retired generals, warned of the 'disintegration' of France because of radical Islamic 'hordes' living in the suburbs

  • The new letter is also open to be signed by the public, with Valeurs Actuelles saying more than 93,000 had done so by Monday morning

  • The authors described themselves as active-duty soldiers from the younger generation of the military, a so-called 'generation of fire' that had seen active service

  • A poll published last month by news channel La Chaîne Info has found that 58 per cent supported the letter, while 42 per cent were opposed

  • Among respondents who vote for Marine Le Pen the proportion of those who supported the letter rose to 86 per cent

#1 Is anyone surprised at this? Well, I'm surprised it took this long.

#2 Jeez, We don't need another "Lafayette, We are Here!" period in our history... best they not accept any more immigrants into their country, until those already there assimilate into the French culture.

#3 Better now than later. By 2050 the Islamists will be 25% of your population. By the end of the century, you will be a minority population Frenchy.

#5 Macron and previous presidents have been giving France away to people who are hostile to the people of France. What did they expect?

#7 ...more like St. Bartholomew's Day, I suspect. I don't recall the Protestants engaging in repeated acts of terrorism to provoke that.
