The Resurrection of French Nationalism? by Paul Craig Roberts

France was the last European nation to lose its sovereignty, and France might be the first to recover its sovereignty. In the 1960s France was still a nation of ethnic French as contrasted with the tower of babel and a geographical entity that it is today.

During the ten-year presidency of Charles De Gaulle (1959-69) Frances policy was one of national independence. DeGaulle refused to join NATO, and he opposed a supranational Europe in which nations would subordinate themselves to a European Union.

French independence could be on the point of return judging from the success of Marine Le Pens party yesterday in the current French elections. Her nationalist party has in the first round of the parliamentary elections taken 34% of the votes with President Macrons centrist coalition receiving only 21% support. If the second round produces similar results, a restoration of French independence is possible.

For many years European governments have worked consistently to overwhelm their ethnic populations with third world immigrant-invaders. It has reached the point where ethnic European women raped by immigrant-invaders fear to report the crime as it can result in a charge of racism or worse against the victim.

For example, in response to a gang-rape of an ethnic German female, a 20-year old ethnic German female citizen called one of the gang rapists a "disgraceful rapist pig." The German citizen was sentenced to jail for defaming an immigrant-invader, a protected species under German law, while the rapist was given a suspended sentence and served no jail time.

For many years the European working class has experienced their living standards reduced in the name of economy. Not long ago the French were protesting the rise in the retirement age, which forces them to work longer for their pension. The French have noticed that economy measures only apply to their living standards and not to the vast sums that Macron pours into the Wests war against Russia in Ukraine. Now all of Europe hears continually that they must prepare, and cough up money for, war with Russia.

The French do not want war with Russia. Nor do the Germans, or the Italians. Only "their" governments do, and war is what Washington,D.C.s puppets have put on the agenda.

Europeans do not want the high energy cost and lost profit and employment opportunities imposed on them by Washington,D.C.s "Russian sanctions." It seems to Europeans that the purpose of Washington,D.C.s sanctions is to make Europe more dependent on Washington,D.C., essentially reducing them to serfs.

Finally, after suffering decades of abuse, insult, and total disregard by their leaders, Europeans protested in the recent European Union parliamentary elections.

The ruling parties were repudiated across the board. The Belgian prime minister had to resign. The French president had to call national elections. I wrote that if the repudiation carries over into the national elections, we could see the unravelling of NATO, the European Union, and a return of sovereign European nations.

World War II gave control of Europe to the United States instead of to Germany.

The Soviet collapse gave Washington,D.C. control over the Warsaw Pact, placing NATO on Russias border.

Washington,D.C.s policy was to de-Germanize Germany and to destroy a national awareness.

Washington,D.C. controlled German education and indoctrinated Germans that nationalism was racist, produced Hitler and the Holocaust. Legislation was passed essentially criminalizing a positive attitude toward German nationalism. It meant that you were a Nazi. It still does. It is unclear if a German state can ever be resurrected.

Rid of the Germans, Washington,D.C. turned its efforts on France. De Gaulles departure weakened France. It took time, but eventually Washington,D.C. controlled who the French president would be. With France, Germany, and the British in Washington,D.C.s pocket, the rest of Europe went along.

Today European nations that shared the rule of the world are puppets of a criminal regime in Washington,D.C. The notion that there is any military power in these puppet states is laughable.

The self-confidence that made the British the ruler of the world has long departed. It was destroyed at Oxford and Cambridge. No Western country has a positive opinion of itself. All are being keyed for war with Russia, China, Iran, while they themselves are being overrun by immigrant-invaders who are paid tribute for their support and permitted to rape European women as a form of restitution.

The Kremlin does not understand the hollowed out, empty, West where there is no support for any government. Western peoples are brainwashed into impotence and cannot even protect their constitutional rights. Why would anyone fight for these governments, and if forced, with what spirit?

President Putin sits there in his legalistic way accepting insult after insult, provocation after provocation, as his way of avoiding war with the West.

It is not only Western provocations that are widening the Ukraine conflict into World War III. Putin has permitted the conflict to go on and on and on, and this has enabled Washington,D.C. to get more and more and more involved, thus widening the conflict.

If President Putin does not immediately use sufficient force to terminate the conflict, World War Three seems certain.

There is hope that if Le Pen wins France and does not sell out to Washington,D.C., the unravelling of NATO and resurrection of European independence will begin.

But this can be a slow process, while the developments in Ukraine toward wider war are accelerating.

The time is rapidly ending during which President Putin can use sufficient force to end the conflict before it results in World War Three.
