French Advised to Leave Iraq.

Looks like appeasement isn’t working. Whoduhthunkit?

France tells its citizens to leave Iraq

PARIS, April 13 (Reuters) - France is strongly advising its citizens to leave Iraq and warning people not to travel there, a Foreign Ministry spokesman said on Tuesday following a spate of kidnappings in the country.
How about a betting pool on how long it will take jihadis to force the same warning to be issued about Paris? I’ll take 5 years.


"I draw your attention to the fact that, since the end of last week, we are strongly advising all French in Iraq to leave and all those who want to go there, to postpone their trip," the spokesman told a news briefing.

He said the situation in Iraq was "worrying" and said about 100 French people were in Iraq at the moment. Does this include jihadis who might hold French citizenship? France opposed the war in Iraq and has no troops there serving with U.S-led forces.

There are only a few remaining questions about the future of France:

Will there be a single, unified Republique Islamique Francais or a series of small Islamic fiefdoms, "sub-caliphates" perhaps?

Will the surviving kufrs have their own rump state in an unoccupied area, possibly centered on Vichy?

Will a future DeGaulle step forward to lead an exiled liberation movement from, say, French Guyana? Will he or she be as difficult as that heroic but cranky leader?

Will the wine industry be closed down in accordance with Sharia law or allowed to continue for export, like that of Algeria?

Could we lease Devil’s Island from these New Free French to replace Guantanamo?

Will the former Notre Dame’s new minarets have elevators, given that they have to be the tallest part of the structure?

#4  1) Minarets in the new Notre Khomeni mosque? (can't be called Notre Dame) Poor Quasimoto. No more bells. Has to learn Islamic chants.

2) Don't forget. No more pork in French cooking.

Now we can put lamb where the pork used to be.

3) How can you have a Paris fashion show where all the models wear burkas? Powder puff blue or black tent with a peep-hole.
