THE LEGION OF SLOWLY BOILING FROGS

by Daniel Barge

France has pulled out the stops to honour Lieutenant Colonel Arnaud Beltrame for his heroism in exchanging his own life for that of a hostage in the latest terrorist incident in France. Here's the Independent:

FRANCE—RACIAL CHAOS MELTDOWN CONTINUES

Not a rioter. Just a member of France's pissed off security services.

by Alt-Right News

Many people—even in the Alt-Right—have expressed surprise at some of President Macron's recent "hard line" statements on migrants, but the fact is this is only because France is now in a state of "creeping chaos" caused by mass immigration and multiculturalism.

This is putting special pressure on workers responsible for keeping France's basic infrastructure functioning, the only thing that ultimately separates a First World country from a Third World one.

MACRON’S ASTROTURF PARTY HITS THE BUFFERS IN SENATE ELECTIONS

by Colin Liddell

I’m not sure how long it took average American voters to see through the hollow promise of Barack Obama — hard to tell as there wasn’t much of an alternative — but in the case of France, the process seems to have taken less than five months with regard to Emmanuel Macron.

In fact, the new President of France may as well call it a day after extremely disappointing results in the French Senatorial Elections.

THE FRENCH ELECTION: THE WHITE PILL VERSION

Audio version available here.

by Colin Liddell

I like to stick to my predictions. Otherwise what's the point of making them? So, when I said Marine Le Pen would win the French Presidential Election some weeks ago, I stuck to my guns, even as the polls continued to show a massive gap.

This was because all the ingredients of a Le Pen win were there, and continued to be there —and still are!—while all that could be said for Macron is that he is a belated French version of Tony Blair and Barack Obama. My mistake was believing in French cynicism. I was disappointed to find that they were not cynical enough to see through such an obvious ploy. In future I will be more cynical about French cynicism.

REFLECTIONS ON THE FRENCH ELECTION: THE FLIP SIDE OF THE "POZ"

by Andy Nowicki

Marine Le Pen's loss in the French election, while expected and predictable, has nevertheless provoked an avalanche of unseemly (but also sadly predictable) social media "sperging out" amongst nationalist-minded West-defenders opposed to globalism and mass Third World immigration.

Comments on Facebook and Twitter range from the despairingly "black-pilled" ("France is over," "France is cucked,") to the forlornly resigned ("So long France, it was nice while it lasted"), to the openly angry ("Fuck you, France!") to the humorously ironic ("France surrenders again!" "Can we have our freedom fries back?")

MARINE LE PEN: STORMING THE GLOBALIST BASTILLE

A tale of two campaigns: the People vs. the Press.

by Richard Wolstencroft

The storming of the Bastille was rumoured to have been started by a prisoner, the notorious Marquis De Sade, screaming down to the crowds below that they were murdering prisoners. This libertarian prank turned into The French Revolution.

It is in this grand tradition that I, the former proprietor of the almost equally notorious Hellfire Club down under, entreat you, in a De Sadean manner, to STORM the Bastille of Globalist EU Europe. Down with Brussels and those Eurocrat fiends. Marine Le Pen could well be the battering ram in this noble endeavour.

ALAIN DE BENOIST ON THE FRENCH ELECTION

French New Right thinker and "intellectual godfather of the Alt-Right," Alain de Benoist recently gave an interview to the Breton nationalist website Breizh-info.com. He was asked him his reactions to the first round of the French Presidential election, which saw the field narrowed down to civic nationalist Marine Le Pen and the "candidate of the broken system" Emmanuel Macron. The translation was done using online translation with common sense correction.

YouTube vlogger State of the Nation gives his usual, highly informed analysis of the French Presidential election, where, it seems, almost all the main candidates are embroiled in some sort of scandal.

EUROPA REDUX: WHAT WILL REPLACE THE TOTTERING EU?

by Colin Liddell

For 41 years Britain, the world's most famous Island nation, went through a period of national LARPing. After watching ABBA triumph in the Eurovision Song Contest in 1975, it tried its best to become a landlocked or semi-landlocked Continental nation that could fit in with its neighbours. To do this, the Brits gave up the shilling, the inch, and almost the pint, and instead tried their hand at being a nation of wine-swilling, baguette twirling coffee drinkers.

The Brexit vote has hopefully reversed this insanity, even if it can't quite bring back the silver sixpence and the Fahrenheit scale. But who knows? Once you start getting back in touch with your true self, anything is possible.

THE DEATH OF FRANCE

After the second round of the French regional elections and the cynical way the Front National was excluded from power, it is time to re-run this article, which was originally published at the time of the French Presidential elections in May 2012. In the first round of that election Marine Le Pen managed to poll 17.9% of the vote and failed to make it into the second round.

by Colin Liddell

The trouble with European politics is that the so-called “extreme” parties are not really extreme enough. This is especially clear from the case of France, where the comparatively mild policies of the Front National have been described throughout the campaign as “extreme” and “far right-wing.”

Like most people, I am not a fan of extremism. But we live in an era when extreme things are happening all around us, so to act with conventional moderation is the equivalent of turning down the heating when the house is on fire.

Centuries of history, including scores of major wars, dozens of invasions and revolutions, and tens of millions slaughtered in battle, have not sufficed to change the ethnic and cultural character or France. However, mass immigration and differential birth rates threaten to do what the likes of Attila the Hun, Moslem Crusaders, English longbowmen, French Revolutionaries, and German panzers failed to do: i.e. change France in its very essence.

ANTI-FRAGILITY: RIDING NASSIM TALEB'S TIGER

by Charles Jansen

An essential concept for understanding the Old (or fake) Right and its inability to defeat the Left is "fragility" – normally defined as the quality of being easily broken or damaged. It has been noted that such right wingers are people who either want to ignore momentum and impose a status quo, which means being Conservative, or LARPers, who yearn for some previous unobtainable moment in history. Many of the disagreements on the right basically boil down to "My LARPing doesn’t line up with your LARPing."

But the essential point about those on the Old Right is their sense of fragility, a feeling that any change or shift will make them lose out in terms of income and social status. This inevitably pushes then to the wrong side of the System. Rather than their defended position, it is this fragility and the fears it generates that comes to define them.

They effectively act like people with osteoporosis fearful of any knock or bump. This is why you see New York Conservatives hobnobbing with Democrats – and submitting to their anti-White agenda. Also, many millennials move to the Left against their better inclinations simply because it gets them a job, money, and social recognition, while people on the Right live in fear of SJWs and "social shaming."

BAD FAITH: ISLAM, LIBERALISM, AND THE INAUTHENTIC FRENCH STATE

by Alex Fontana

In the wake of the Friday the 13th terrorist attacks in Paris by Jihadist Muslims, the details of which are still emerging, I want to avoid writing another "I told you so" response, swathed in sentimental solidarity with the French victims, or deal with obvious "fall out" talking points, like Mossad's possible involvement, the question of restricting civil liberties or allowing citizens to carry guns, possible military responses in the Middle East, the effect on French Jews considering aliyah (emigration to Israel), the effect on the electoral fortunes of the Front National, and so on.

Instead I want to reflect on what the city means as a symbol, and consider how some very ‘Parisian’ currents of thought have led innocents directly to this slaughterhouse.

THE PURGE AND THE POETS

From left to right: PA Cousteau, Claude Jeantet (standing) and Lucien Rebatet.

by Rémi Tremblay

When one thinks of the French language, it is impossible not to think of the richness of its literature. Known for its theater and poetry, its classicism and romanticism, French has produced some of the world’s best authors. But like many things in France, its culture is declining. Where did this decline start? Did it start with the Cultural Marxist revolution of the 60’s? French author Léon Arnoux who recently published L’épuration et les Poètes (The Purge and the Poets) claims the origins of the decline coincide with the purges at the end of the Second World War.

THE CULT OF INCOMPETENCE

Émile Faguet was an important French writer and political philosopher. This extract, from his seminal work, "The Cult of Incompetence," was published in Aristokratia II, a journal of philosophy dedicated to the ideas of Nietzsche, Plato, Evola, Cioran, Aristotle, Socrates, and others. Aristokratia III: Hellas was recently published, and is highly recommended.

THE PRINCIPLES OF FORMS OF GOVERNMENT

By Émile Faguet (Translated by Beatrice Barstow)

The question has often been asked, what is the animating principle of different forms of government, for each, it is assumed, has its own principle. In other words, what is the general idea which inspires each political system?

Montesquieu, for instance, proved that the principle of monarchy is honour, the principle of despotism fear, the principle of a republic virtue or patriotism, and he added with much justice that governments decline and fall as often by carrying their principle to excess, as by neglecting it altogether.

And this, though a paradox, is true. At first sight it may not be obvious how a despotism can fall by inspiring too much fear, or a constitutional monarchy by developing too highly the sentiment of honour, or a republic by having too much virtue. It is nevertheless true.

THE SELF-INFLICTED MISERY OF "LES MISERABLES"

Jean Valjean: drowning in Liberal tears?

by General Beardcastle

You’ll have heard by now of “dindus” and the “gentle giant” who wishes to “turn his life around.” Although now almost always Black, the origin of this archetypal object of liberal leftist sympathies was the character of Jean Valjean in Victor Hugo’s famous novel, Les Misérables, which has also been made into one of the longest-running musicals of all time as well as a movie or two.

Valjean is described as a stout, hardy man of great muscular strength, whom we are made to feel has been unjustly imprisoned for merely stealing a loaf of bread and then only because he was starving. Our hearts are supposed to bleed for him and then burn with a sense of outrage at the terrible injustices of the world.

But, just how true is any of this?

THE AFRICANIZATION OF FRANCE... AS OF 2014

This article is an expanded and updated version of an article published in November 2012 at Alternative Right. This new version has also been published in English at the Council of European Canadians and in French at Les 4 Vérités.

by Falko Baumgartner

Geographically one finds France in Europe, but demographically the country is swiftly drifting towards Africa as recent data indicates. France, unlike America, does not hold censuses on ethnicity, but follows instead its ideal of the color-blind republic. This, obviously, does not change one bit the ethnic reality on the ground, but it certainly helps to keep its citizens in the dark about it. Little in the way of official figures exists on the size of the immigrant population and the native French — until now. Pertinent material has come from quite an unexpected source, medicine, and it has all the hallmarks of allowing us an adequately precise and unbiased look into the strong growth of the non-White population in France.

A SHOCK POLL FROM FRANCE

Marine Le Pen, a French existentialist.

by Daniel Barge

“Only 14% of people surveyed by Ifop, a leading market research company, said that they would vote for Hollande if the presidential elections were held this week, compared to 29% for Le Pen. 26% of respondents said they would vote for former president Nicolas Sarkozy if he were to be selected as the candidate for the UMP (Union for a Popular Movement) party. Sarkozy announced his intention to challenge Hollande for the presidency in the 2017 election in September.” Newsweek

THE LIBERAL LEFT INCITES RELIGIOUS HATRED

by Paul Weston

I have often said that living in a Western world controlled by the liberal Left is akin to living in a lunatic asylum, and just two stories over the last couple of days would seem to reinforce this belief. Both instances are the usual examples of white-only guilt, coupled with a refusal to acknowledge genuinely racist behaviour based simply on the grounds that the perpetrators are immune to criticism by dint of their non-white skin or their non-Christian faith.

The first story concerns the brutal murder of Saudi Arabian student Nahid Almanea in Colchester, Essex. The Daily Telegraph shrieked the headline "Essex PhD student 'murdered for being Muslim', police fear" with further sensationalist journalism such as "religiously motivated" and "targeted because she was a Muslim" according to the police.

THE PRECONDITIONS FOR "EXIGRATION"

This report by Dale Hurd from Pat Robertson's Christian Broadcasting Network details the problems of ethnic and Islamic colonization and violence in France, and how the French are responding. Among the facts presented are that one in five French people have been subjected to racist attacks and that 93% of Muslims in France voted for the Parti Socialiste candidate Francois Hollande at the last Presidential election, demonstrating the close links between the New Left and Islam. The report also interviews Max, a member of Génération Identitaire, which encourages its members to learn self defense.

The report limits itself to presenting the facts, but suggests that France may be heading ultimately towards a situation of ethnic anarchy similar to that of Lebanon. The inescapable conclusion that arises from this is that the only possible solution is "exigration," namely the resettlement of the Muslim population, whether born in France or not, to countries where its racial, cultural, and demographic characteristics won't threaten those of the French. On the road to this inevitable conclusion, even the election of a Front National government would only be a small step.

FRENCH LESSONS

by Adrian Davies

Good news from France, as the Front National continues to make impressive progress in establishing itself as the new third force in French politics.

Less than two months before the European elections, in which the Front National is expected to run neck and neck with the establishment right UMP (Union pour un Mouvement Populaire), leaving the ruling Socialist Party (Parti Socialiste – PS) a poor third, the FN has taken control of twelve town halls under a voting system much less favourable to it than the system which will apply in the Euros on 25th May (France votes on a Sunday, as do most continental countries, who view our tradition of holding elections on a working day as eccentric!)
