French outrage..truck used to kill, page-116

Even before this happened, just a few days ago, Patrick Calvar, chief of the Directorate General of Internal Security, told members of the French parliamentary commission: "We are on the brink of civil war."

He said that the situation in France is on such a knife edge that it could just take one more major Islamist terror attack to lead to a huge right-wing backlash.

Speaking to the leading French newspaper, Le Figaro, Mr Calvar said: "This confrontation I think it will take place.
"Even another one or two attacks and it will happen. It therefore behooves us to anticipate and block all these groups."

He said that he feared an inevitable confrontation between the far right and Muslims poses more of a threat than terrorism.


Like most of the establishment, however, he sees the civil unrest and confrontation as a bigger problem than the terrorism.  So again the government will try and suppress the problem, and the pressure will continue to build.  If civil war does not break out after the atrocity on Bastille Day (of all days), then it will only be due to the government doing what they always do.

Meanwhile, Socialist President Hollande pays $11,000 for hair cuts.  It really is a modern day : "Fiddling while Rome burns".
