Going online, I discovered that the French Muslims had reacted to Sarkozy's victory, basically, by rioting, wounding dozens of police, and burning hundreds of cars.
Now, if I were a member of an ethnic minority whose unpopularity had just been demonstrated in that said unpopularity was the catalyst for the politics of the country I was living in taking a sharp turn to the right, because the electorate wanted to make sure that I didn't cause trouble, the last thing I would do is cause more trouble. Surely, it would not escape me that someone who was looking for an excuse to suppress me had just come into office, and I would think "Hmm, better not give him that excuse!"
But the French Muslims, or at least a sizable number of them, apparently do not think in these terms. They apparently believe that, while every other ethnic group they encounter had better go far out of their way to be nice to them, they do not in turn have to be nice to anyone.
This is simply a manifestation of a larger Muslim arrogance, one especially notable in the world. Muslims are, after all, a minority in the world as a whole -- it's often pointed out that there are a billion to a billion and a half Muslims so we Americans had better be nice to them -- what isn't as often pointed out is that, with over six billion people in the world, this means that the Muslims are only 17-25 percent of the population -- and a badly divided minority at that.
The Muslims, however, believe that they are inevitably going to conquer the world, and hence they don't need to worry about destroying their reputation with other groups by behaving violently, because in the future they'll be running the show.
This is arrogance. It is stupid arrogance, because there is no backup plan, as in "... and if our attempt to conquer the world NOW fails, we will instead ..."
It is a kind of arrogance we've seen before, too. Remember Hitler's foreign policy, and his habit of making enemy after enemy in the assumption that he would simply conquer them all? It is perhaps relevant here that Hitler is a hero in much of the modern Mulsim world ...
In my opinion, this sort of behavior is going to ensure that the 21st century will not be a Muslim century, or even one of growing Muslim influence. It will, instead, be one in which Muslim countries "scream and leap" (on the Kzinti or WWII Japanese model) at non-Muslim countries, often before they are really ready for a fight (see the WWII Japanese), and consequently suffer numerous disastrous defeats.
By 2100, most of the Muslim world will probably be recolonized by, whether overtly, by non-Muslim countries, and subordinate to non-Muslim countries in the management of their foreign and defense policies.
And the Muslims will themselves have brought it about, by behaving so insanely that their non-Muslim neighbors will see no alternative to spending whatever blood and treasure, and killing whatever number of Muslims it takes, to bring this about.
Incidentally, I don't think that America will be the country mainly doing this. I think that India will wind up conquering Pakistan, Russia reconquering Central Asia, Israel conquering Syria and Jordan, France and Italy conquering North Africa, and Australia Indonesia. The only Muslim country I suspect will have much of an independent future will be Turkey.
America, thankfully, doesn't have to take the lead in this. Do you know why?
We don't LIVE NEAR any of those bastards.
