The Deep State and its Islamic voting bloc elected globalist Emmanuel Macron and defeated French patriot Marine Le Pen in yesterday’s presidential election.
Le Pen lost after a week of scurrilous attacks from Macron and the hysterical leftist media that painted her as a “far-right” candidate. She was, they said, the sworn enemy of Muslims. In its final days, the campaign focused on her plan to ban Muslim head scarves in public and fine the Mohammedans who wear them.
Though Macron defeated Le Pen 58.5 percent to 41.5, voters gave her the biggest share of the electorate in three tries.
Referendum on Islam?
The headscarf debate reared its hijabbed head in the campaign’s final moments, France 24 reported last week. Le Pen wants them banned. Apparently unconcerned what France will look like when he and his much-older wife shuffle off this mortal coil, Macron doesn’t.
“Le Pen’s opposition to the headscarf has encapsulated what her critics say makes her dangerous to French unity, by stigmatizing millions of French Muslims,” the website reported. “Le Pen would also slash immigration and wants to outlaw ritual slaughter, which would restrict French Muslims’ and Jews’ access to kosher and halal meat.”
As the leftist Guardian reported on Friday, “Muslim women have once again become a central topic in French politics, as people prepare to vote in the second round of the presidential election on Sunday”:
“For me, the question of the headscarf is not an obsession,” Emmanuel Macron said last week, signalling that he was happy with the status quo — headscarves are currently not allowed in schools — but also suggesting his far-right rival Marine Le Pen’s plan to ban them entirely was beyond the pale.
There are between 5 and 6 million Muslims in France, and they overwhelmingly voted for the far-left Jean-Luc Mélenchon (69%) in the first round. However, many are still undecided or have decided to abstain in this second round. This is despite several imams, including the head of the great mosque of Paris, encouraging worshippers to vote for Macron to prevent Le Pen from becoming president.
Macron’s direct appeal to the country’s ever-metastasizing Islamic melanoma, it appears, worked. Citing the Catholic La Croix magazine, Breitbart reported that 85 percent of Muslims voted for Macron.
Foreign Interference and Collusion
Globalist elites made clear that Macron had to defeat Le Pen to protect European “unity” and “democracy.” A “far-right” president must not win, as the leftist New York Times reported.
“At a critical moment in Europe, with fighting raging in Ukraine after the Russian invasion, France rejected a candidate hostile to NATO, to the European Union, to the United States, and to its fundamental values that hold that no French citizens should be discriminated against because they are Muslim,” the newspaper reported:
Jean-Yves Le Drian, the foreign minister, said the result reflected “the mobilization of French people for the maintenance of their values and against a narrow vision of France.”
“If Brexit was a blow to unity, a French nationalist quasi-exit, as set out in Ms. Le Pen’s proposals, would have left the European Union on life support,” he claimed. “That, in turn, would have crippled an essential guarantor of peace on the continent in a volatile moment.”
As well, foreign leaders interfered in the election, the Times continued. They portrayed Le Pen as a threat.
German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, Portuguese Prime Minister Antonio Luis Santos da Costa, and Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez Pérez-Castejón stuck their big schnozzes into the debate. Warning about Russia’s threat to Europe, they attacked Le Pen in Le Monde, the Times observed.
France must “defend our common European values,” the headline said:
The letter was a reflection of the anxiety in European capitals and Washington that preceded the vote.
“It is the choice between a democratic candidate, who believes that France is stronger in a powerful and autonomous European Union, and a far-right candidate, who openly sides with those who attack our freedom and our democracy,” they wrote.
“Our common European values?” “Our freedom and our democracy?”
Le Pen apparently forgot that the French president’s employers are Deep State globalist elites, not the French people those elites hope to replace with anti-white, anti-Christian, Islamic illegal aliens.
