The following video is the second excerpt from a talk by General Christian Piquemal that was given last month at an anti-Islamization rally in France (part one is here; earlier posts about the general are here and here).
Gen. Piquemal is a retired four-star general and the former commander of the Foreign Legion. He is a staunch opponent of the Islamization of France.

Video transcript:
09:07 | In 1992 the government | |
09:11 | unfortunately turned its coat, | |
09:15 | in order to submit to Schengen with the opening of the borders | |
09:19 | and raging multiculturalism. | |
09:23 | More than thirty years of suicidal immigration policies | |
09:28 | put France in danger of disappearing. | |
09:32 | Today the statistics show it: | |
09:36 | 70% of citizens don’t want any immigration whatsoever, | |
09:40 | and they refuse the Islamization of their country. But they are | |
09:44 | being controlled — and who knows it better than you? — while wisdom | |
09:48 | would suggest listening to them. For almost four months | |
09:52 | the new government, just like the old one, | |
09:57 | has been a threat to the respect of the Constitution and the identity | |
10:01 | of France. The responsibility of | |
10:05 | the head of the state, the indivisibility, security, | |
10:09 | and the integrity of our territory are being threatened. | |
10:13 | But what do you expect from a sorcerer’s apprentice | |
10:17 | who — while in Algiers — appointed himself the Grand Inquisitor of France | |
10:21 | and of his people during his campaign. | |
10:25 | calling for the violence against the patriots in Marseille with his slogan | |
10:30 | filled with anti-French hatred: “Get them out of here!” | |
10:34 | wrote the psychopath, losing all self-control. | |
10:38 | Monsieur le President! How could you | |
10:42 | show such ignorance about French work and achievements in Algeria?! | |
10:46 | Achievements which you dared to qualify as “crimes against humanity”! | |
10:50 | Then you play down such ineptitude | |
10:54 | “crimes against Ummah”, which doesn’t mean anything at all. | |
10:58 | How a brilliant Enarque [graduate of the prestigious National School of Administration] could be | |
11:02 | this illiterate in history!? Since, you negated French culture | |
11:06 | and mistook Guyana for an island. | |
11:10 | My conclusion therefore is that geography isn’t one of your strengths either. | |
11:15 | By the way, Mister President: | |
11:19 | what exactly are your strengths?! The courage of a chameleon? | |
11:23 | A narcissistic self-centredness? A self-absorbed megalomania? | |
11:27 | and a capacity to say everything and its opposite [allusion to Hegelian dialectics] | |
11:31 | with the force, conviction and self-assurance of a carnival barker? | |
11:35 | But it’s not all. One thing is sure | |
11:39 | Emmanuel Macron has problem with the military. | |
11:44 | Shown clearly in summer during the paroxysmal crisis | |
11:48 | with the resignation of the Chief Army Chief of Staff | |
11:52 | Pierre de Villiers, this defiance | |
11:56 | clearly springs from fear, expressed during | |
12:00 | the presidential speech in the L’Hôtel de Brienne on July 13th: | |
12:04 | “I am your chief! The commitments that I undertake | |
12:08 | before the citizens, before the army, | |
12:13 | I can keep, and I need | |
12:17 | neither pressure nor comment about it.” | |
12:21 | He interestingly continues to need to demonstrate that | |
12:25 | the civil authority he incarnates has to make the military | |
12:29 | march silently in lockstep. | |
12:33 | He reiterated it by the demotion | |
12:37 | of the hierarchy inflicted on one particular member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff | |
12:42 | of the Elysée [French presidential palace], Admiral Bernard Rogel, who loses his place | |
12:46 | in the protocol of Elysée: which isn’t just | |
12:50 | symbolic, but additionally marks defiance | |
12:54 | of the army and the military. To demonstrate to everyone | |
12:58 | that these soldiers, with whom the president rubs shoulders every day, | |
13:02 | were in too high a position in his eyes; he will humiliate | |
13:06 | the army once again, and all the soldiers. | |
13:10 | Today we have a discredited army, uncontrolled borders | |
13:14 | a president who is uncontrollable himself, | |
13:19 | but suffering from an obsessive need to control; | |
13:23 | who reduces every day our fundamental liberties and our right | |
13:27 | to defend ourselves and to live. Today | |
13:31 | France is nothing more than suffering all the way to the horizon. | |
13:35 | Its demise has been organized, as was her guardianship. | |
13:39 | Inequality is accelerating; the brutality of the system | |
13:43 | is growing; the lies of the government | |
13:47 | become more and more obvious, beginning with this parody of elections. | |
13:51 | I am convinced: if we were voting by raised hands, as our ancestors did, | |
13:55 | and not behind the curtain of the voting booth | |
13:59 | — the object of all the constitutional manipulations — | |
14:04 | we certainly wouldn’t have seen the confirmation of this presidential usurpation. |
I guess he doesn’t think much of the new French President. Bring back the guillotine I say, there will be much use for it in the times coming.
We’ve seen before how this ends. War, death, destruction and misery.
Many innocents will die. But neither will the guilty escape unscathed.
Amen brother!
Moon, I have no problem with your prediction so long as the ‘right people’ i.e. those who have forever been doing this to us and have managed to escape their deserved fate, time after time, are finally dealt with.
If that is not done, the current ‘upset’ will be repeated again and again into the future.
I am still waiting for one or any US General to take a stand and speak out so frankly as does Piquemal. The warriors have been dumped, the sellouts are in place, and the death of Western Civilization continues apace.
Manny macaroni is the antichrist…..
If he were Italian, I probably wouldn’t have let in your soubriquet for Maron. But I’ve got to admit that “Manny Macaroni” is funny indeed.
He is too small for the Antichrist. But big enough to cause enormous damage to his country.
“But what do you expect from a sorcerer’s apprentice who — while in Algiers — appointed himself the Grand Inquisitor of France”
What a wonderfully sweeping condemnation–from Goethe’s hapless novice to Dostoyesky’s spirit of nihilism (or one of the Church’s greatest villains), i.e., a clown capable of great destruction. Stephen King could write a novel.
