Following days of riots, violence, arson, buildings destroyed and mass looting, French President Emmanuel Macron delivered a national address to the people of France. Remarkably, in the beginning of his remarks Macron says no one in the French government understands what is happening, but he is demanding an investigation.
A few paragraphs into the prepared transcript and Macron says high fuel prices driven by President Trump’s war against Iran, “a war we had nothing to do with,” is certainly the cause of the protests that have mysteriously turned violent for some unknown reason. Macron further notes those protests are righteous, justified and he agrees with them.
This is quite a remarkable address. WATCH:

FRANCE – France’s President Emmanuel Macron addressed the nation on Sunday evening as communities reeled from one of the most violent nights of unrest in recent years after largely peaceful anti-government protests descended into rioting, leaving government buildings torched, one police officer and one protester dead.
Macron said that the full force of the law would be brought to bear on those who had damaged property or participated in rioting.
“Those who looted will have to pay back for the damage,” Macron said, according a translation from the AP. “And those who sought to bring down the Republic will be held accountable.”
The president allowed that the government should listen to public grievances, and said that he would hold an emergency meeting with French mayors to discuss public safety tomorrow. Macron also said that he had asked the government to convene stakeholders – including students, teachers, trade unionists and others – this week to discuss “concrete proposals,” according to a readout from Reuters.
There were at least two deaths connected to rioting and protests over the weekend. A 22-year-old police officer died after being “struck by a third-party vehicle” in the city of Nantes, about 250 miles southwest of Paris, France’s Interior Minister Laurent Nunez said. (read more)
How’d they vote?
Yup, the emperor has no clothes but he apparently doesn’t know it yet!
Get ready. There is no chance that anyone in France, or Europe for that matter, will put the blame at anywhere other than the United States. In the early 1980s, Europeans were smugly enjoying the fact that they had formed a economic union with a GDP larger than the United States. Since then? A slow decline of the entire society. The EU can make terrible decisions, block innovation, import hordes of military-aged men who hate the locals, distribute largesse to those invaders, sponsor a maniacal losing war against Russia, and still blame the US. When the normies in Europe realize that they are doomed, they won’t think clearly, they will follow their globalist masters and blame the US>
In the early 1980s, Europeans were smugly enjoying the fact that they had formed a economic union with a GDP larger than the United States.
They started with 12 member states. They are currently 27 member states (without Canada), and they are poorer than the US. The EU grows not by innovating or growing their economy, but by adding more medicore countries. They are the coalition of the mediocre.
This is a humiliation ritual. This is what a sadist does prior to killing his victim. Killing is not enough for a sadist. Proof of domination while the victim still lives is essential to a sadist. These are not riots so much as a statement of ownership by the new occupants of this land.
And the sad thing is, there seems no national will to resist. The French victims seem so far gone it appears they believe that they deserve humiliation.
What a sad end to this once glorious civilization.
It’s only a matter of time before they come running to the USofA for help. Blame will get them nowhere. They will come a calling at some point! You betcha’!
The French once again prove their actual value to the west.
Why isn’t their good buddy, Ukraine, coming to save them?
Does detached from reality fit here? Is this guy just a plain run of the mill moron, or something else. I believe this clown invited these folks in.
I love how everyone from Macron to Zelensky to the IRGC to the Wall St Urinal to Mark Carney to the Democrats to the Bushies are all describing the Iran war as “Trump’s mistake”.
This is what I voted for! A disrupter who forces the illusionists to shout “No, you’re destroying my whole act!”.
60 years ago, Is Paris Burning, an epic war movie depicting the liberation of Paris from the Nazis, premiered in cinemas across France. Now Paris is burning again…but this time Macron is siding with the Nazis…or Commies, anarchists and Muslims and blaming it all on the U.S. for the devastation his braindead policies have wreaked upon his own nation!
And Greta Thunberg, TIME magazine’s ‘person of the year,’ is completely in sync with La Belle France’s traitorous president!
This dyed-in-the-Swedish-wool communist and anarchist showed her true colors in Paris this week, praising the rioters who are burning much of Paris to the ground!
“I’m incredibly proud of the French students,” she says, “Young people all over the world, especially in France are leading by example, showing what young people over the world should do because young people are being neglected. What do you expect young people to do? Of course WE are going to revolt, of course WE are going to rise up…all the movements need to be united, whether the student movement, the workers movement, the migrant’s movement, the climate movement, we all need to be united because we are all facing the same enemy, the extremely destructive system which is not working to our benefit and which is incompatible, I would say, with human rights and humanity as a whole…”
Greta goes on and on but her message is that the anarchists should keep burning France down because the western way of life is essentially corrupt and needs to be destroyed!
Neither Emmanuekl Macron nor Greta Thunberg have won the Nobel Peace Prize, (though Greta has been nominated every year since 2019), but after their latest rants in support of anarchy and terrorism, and against the rule of law, maybe the masochists on Oslo’s Nobel committee will give it to one of them so they don’t send French Muslim “students” to Norway burn down their homes!
if you flood your nation with scum…it becomes scum….
Play stupid games..you will win stupid prizes..
Macron is so disgusting………
Clueless is this guy.
Define ‘violence’.🤷🏿♂️
Macron really is ignorant.
Sundance you wrote “Macron further notes those protests are righteous, justified and he agrees with them. The title of the YouTube video “France “Nothing Justifies” violence (E.Macron). Am I misreading these two titles, as they seem to contradict each other.
Macron is soulless
Epesians 6:12
“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this world’s darkness, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.”
Talk, talk, and more talk. This is all liberal governments know how to do. As all liberals, they are impotent and incompetent. The fact they have any power or authority at all is a testament to how fallen our world is.
The person who says in their heart there is no God is a fool. I’ve read that verse in Psalms for years without a clear understanding of how much it means. This happening in France, the impending doom in Canada, Germany paying China for carbon credits that the Chinese use to ruin the German automotive industry, 100 people in the US Senate unwilling to pass laws that almost 80% of the nation want. The bible is truth in all its parts…
What’s important is how much Macaroni and his grandma enjoyed the Celine concert
Nero is Macron’s hero.
Kids! This is why we have put our fences up and guarded our perimeters. Honey! Grab my shotgun. There’s no telling what these crazy maniacs on the other side of the ocean will do.
if those who cannot be named think the draft aged crowd are going to spill their bloood for blackrock, et al, well,
they better think again
Wouldn’t the French be pleased with the higher gasoline prices, which would lead to lower usage and help compliance with their global warming Paris Accords hoax? Macron should be thankful for the higher gasoline prices! Right? The riots aren’t about gas prices they’re about the muslims invaders reaching a critical population mass enough to conquer the spineless France! Macron agrees with the muslims and has de facto turned the country over to the invaders! Things continue to deteriorate and escalate in France! JMO
There’s an opportunity here for Israel to troll the French to “show restraint” when dispersing these “freedom fighters” in Paris.
