...with the Muslim takeover of France?

I know that this may be old news for many but I never thought about Brigitte Bardot being an advocate and outspoken about French culture like this. I would think that she would be like a lot of other European actresses and be very left of center but what can I say?

I got to point out that even though France has on their coins (or did) Liberté, égalité, fraternité or Liberty, equality, fraternity, there is no liberty in France. Maybe they need to go back to Travail, famille, patrie? Well what ever happened to Liberté, égalité, fraternité, ou la mort!

Well here is the article;

Brigitte Bardot Causes Stir With Criticism of Muslims, Immigrants

Paris (CNSNews.com) - Brigitte Bardot, the retired French movie actress and sex symbol of the 1960s, is making news again for attacking Muslims, immigrants and homosexuals in her new book, A Cry in the Silence.

Bardot, who is 68 years old and married to a right-wing National Front party executive, writes in the book published this month that Muslims are "Islamizing France," that immigrants are trashing churches where they seek asylum and that homosexuals are "fairground freaks."

Two groups have announced that they are filing legal proceedings against her for inciting racial hatred and discrimination.

"Racism is not an opinion in France," said Mouloud Aounit, president of the Movement Against Racism and for Friendship of People (MRAP). "It is a crime."

The group has also called for a boycott of the book and its editor, Editions du Rocher.

According to news reports, 120,000 copies of Bardot's book were sold in the first five days and it is the second-most popular book in sales on Amazon.com's French web site.

The daily newspaper France-Soir published excerpted passages of the book, which included criticism of the "professional" unemployed and of teachers, whom Bardot described as arriving in classes "unshaved, with greasy hair, dirty shirts, disgusting jeans and muddy sneakers."

Michel Tubiana, president of the French League of Human Rights, said the book is full of racist attacks against Muslims. His group is also initiating legal action.

"Bardot makes it out that France has been invaded by Islam and that Muslims are terrorists," Tubiana said.

"It is important to know publicly that one does not have the right to call someone names in France because he is a Muslim, a black or a Jew in the manner that Bardot is doing."

Some five million Muslims live in France and the government recently helped create a National Muslim Council to officially represent the diverse Muslim groups in the country.

Bardot was convicted and fined several years ago for inciting racial hatred after she wrote an article criticizing the ritual sacrifice of sheep by Muslims during the Eid el-Kebir holiday.

MRAP's Aounit said that the book "was written with the ink of hatred but it is also deeply racist and ideological. People are attacked because they were born different. There is a monstrous paragraph on the handicapped ... there is a whole discourse on #####, that a multicultural society generates #####."

"We are asking for the justice system to be firm .... Brigitte Bardot incarnated a French symbol and if she is allowed to make such racist comments, it will condone other expressions of racism in France," he said.

In the book, Bardot also criticizes modern art, modern literature, politicians, and women in government.

One of the few politicians she does praise is the National Front leader and defeated candidate for the French presidency, Jean Marie Le Pen.

In turn, Le Pen was quoted last week in the daily paper Le Monde, saying Bardot is "a great personality, a courageous woman, impartial, free, who says what she thinks, which in our country is rare, in view of the unique line of thought and the dominant intellectual terrorism."

It seems to me that france is going to be the next islamic country. after that there will be the uk becoming an islamic country followed to long after by the united states.

Nope Spain has already started it's conversion and is far ahead of everyone else. the UK seems to be neck and neck with france. Germany has Neo-Nazis to slow the process down there. The states in the former Yugoslav seem to be rummbling again and I expect to see an increase in violence between Muslims and the Orthodox soon.
