Viva la France?
Ethel C. Fenig
France is just not that into that diversity, pluralism and multi culturalism thing. Apparently they're into being well...French a la their ancestors, the Gauls. And those who don't behave in a proper French manner just can't become French. Female Gauls presumably did not veil their faces and entire bodies, thus a man who forced his wife to do so was denied French citizenship reports Jenny Barchfield of AP.
According to the French Minister of Immigration, the wannabe citizen had publicly stated he believed women's status is inferior and as such he didn't believe in gender equality so his wife would always have to go out in a full veil, ie, swathed in a burqa from head to toe with face covered therefore he would not respect another important principle of French society, its public secularism.
Previously France had refused citizenship to another woman covered from head to toe, originally from Morocco, because 'she was not sufficiently assimilated into French society.' The burqa beauty wanted her covering and her French citizenship so she appealed. Denied.
Viva la France?"

Everyone else seems be finding backbone while we have completely lost ours. Amazing what can happen in one short year."

The tool for tools.
The French have only arrogance to save themselves, better use it soon, isn’t the EU about to embrace and include the Mediterranean Muslims?
One down, 3+ million to go. Just wait for the riots for not doing this sort of selectivity earlier.
What ever it takes!
Now if only the US could grow a spine.
Iranian’s are being publicly hung for speaking up for freedom. The US can hardly manage to take the doughnut out of our mouths to complain about getting more!
