Marine Le Pen, France’s “far-right” presidential hopeful, told voters in the aftermath of the most recent terror attack in Paris — the attack that left one police officer dead and two others injured — that if she were elected, one of her priorities would be to restore borders to the ailing country.
Sounds a bit like President Donald Trump, yes?
“Because our country is at war, the response must be global, too,” Le Pen said, Bloomberg reported.
Le Pen, who’s been calling for immigration and refugee controls for months, said the government’s been nothing but weak on borders and terrorism. And voters, wearied of the all-too-frequent acts of Islam-tied terror in their country, may very well listen come Sunday, when voting begins.
From Fox News:
“French citizens head to the polls in two days for the first round of the country’s election.
“One police officer was killed and two others seriously injured when a gunman with an automatic weapon opened fire. Officers shot and killed the assailant. Officials said the assailant was armed with an automatic firearm akin to a “war weapon.”
“The suspect’s name was not publicly released. The Islamic State group claimed responsibility for the attack and gave a pseudonym for the shooter, Abu Yusuf al-Beljiki, indicating he was Belgian or had lived in Belgium. The attacker opened fire on a police van on the avenue before being killed.
“Two French officials said the gunman was detained in February for threatening police then freed.
“The officials spoke Friday to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because they weren’t authorized to publicly discuss details of the probe into Thursday night’s attack.
“The officials said the gunman was detained toward the end of February after speaking threateningly about the police but then released for lack of evidence.
“He was convicted in 2003 of attempted homicide in shootings on two police officers.
“Besides Le Pen, other presidential candidates have expressed their solidarity with police forces. The 11 candidates were appearing on a television program ahead of the first round of voting in the two-part election when the attack occurred.’
“Conservative contender Francois Fillon said on France 2 television he was canceling his planned campaign stops on Friday.
“Paris’ iconic Champs-Elysees boulevard is reopen and picking up its usual early morning routine Friday. Delivery trucks were making their rounds. Traffic was going up and down the famous tree-lined street and police barriers have been taken down.”

France is being HUMILIATED on a daily basis by islam.
French women are being denigrated, verbally assaulted, molested and raped. Police men are shot at on a regular basis.
There is frequent civil unrest, rioting and car burning. The mosques spill out onto the streets to pray in public as a clear act of defiance of the secular state.
Suicide bombers, truck jihad, knife jihad, murder in the churches… it just goes on and on.
It is getting worse.
The impassivity and inertia of the State in failing to respond appropriately and decisively to these attacks is a PROVOCATION to these Islamists who are emboldened with every subsequent attack.
The state and the political culture are paralysed by PC and the magical thinking of the left – which misattributes the aggression to “social exclusion” and “poverty” – both of which are obvious and outright lies – instead of recognising Islam for what it is simply by looking at its history.
This will never end until France is laid low and bows down to Islam and their Globalist handlers.
Vote Le Pen if you want to begin the painful process of ending this cancer. That or choose death by islam.
Well said and so true!
French people – fight back! Islam wants to destroy France, Vote Le Pen.
Their government created this mess. They started to invite muzrats 50 yrs ago. And have the largest muzzie population in Europe. WTF did they do it from the first place? Hope Marine Le Penn will win. It’s now or never.
Weren’t there more brave women in the French Resistance than men?
Perhaps I am wrong, have read just 2 books about it
But in both, women were the real fighters and leaders
I believe the Resistance was in reality quite small – beyond that I know very little about it unfortunately 🙂
Would she expel the invading citizens of the worldwide Islamic Ummah? (That is, Muslims, even those who feign fealty to France and enlightenment.)
I hope Marine Le Pen will win and is able to restore borders as promised, but this is like closing the hen house doors after the fox is already inside. Unless mass deportations of Muslims happens the trouble will continue. You can’t have Islamist terror attacks without the Muslims to carry them out.
He probably bends over and grabs his ankles for any muslum man.
Thank you Saul Berenson for calling out the Le Pen swine. You are a great American hero! The Le Pens would have deported Pam to the Holocaust centers.
Patinkin is no American hero, but he is an enemy collaborator.
Le Pen is a fascist just like her father. Shame on Pam for sharing a bed with this Vichy swine.
Really? What are you doing in this corner? There is no CNN here
Who cares what you think willie-wanker…!?
-Take a trip to Sweden, they might agree with you, in the 52 no-go zones…
-Take a trip to The Netherlands, and say hi to the nice Moroccan klans…
-Take a trip to southern Italy, and welcome the Africans, sailed in from Libya by NGO ships, which costs hundreds of thousands of Euros, to keep bringing in “refugees”…
Smells like Soros…!!
Wouldn’t it be a real shocker if Le Pen won the election and then soon afterward pushed to end gun control in France so they could have a fighting chance against further incursions? In “The Resistance in World War Two” by Miller there is a photo of some of its members wielding antique weapons from World War I and before. To go up against the 1940 invasion by the Nazis with their new Mausers? I don’t think so.
If she loses the election, France and Europe will be an even more dangerous place.
What will western civilization learn from the daily Islamic terror attacks? How long will it take to wake up and recognize the problem is Islam itself not just a few misguided soles? Perhaps 90% the Muslims won’t commit Jihad, but 10% will. Even if all the Jihadists were killed or jailed worldwide, Islam will breed a new crop of terrorists each 20 years. The Quran is the root of this evil indoctrination and it must be revised to be compatible with civilization or outlawed worldwide. So United Nations gat to it!
I hope the sheep don’t vote for the wolves, like they did in Holland. But anything can happen in a mad world going proudly madder.
