What happens if LePen wins? Deportation? Tightening of immigration and asylum rules? And what do you think that will that do? Split the EU? Multi-culturalism has to be seen as failing doctrine, doesn't it? Will the French really put up with "it's your fault for not giving them more welfare, integrating them, etc," especially when their economy is faltering and they can't provide enough work for their own people? I know it's complicated when their own public vote down the EU because they were afraid of losing their 30 hour work week.

Napoleon did quite well there for a considerable while. I don't know why Napoleon is getting credit today. He got kicked out of his first Army in Corsica and he lost his last two in combat. His generals were so dismayed with his leadership, in the latter two cases, they quit fighting for him. You could say he did conquer Egypt but he lost every ship in his navy doing it. Then the s--- will really hit the fan. If the current unrest leads to French nukes falling into the wrong hands the s--- will hit the fan everywhere and US Rangers will be making another landing at Pointe Du Hoc.
