When Mike Huckabee talks about the French carving out part of the French Riviera to make a state for the so-called “Palestinians,” that is actually not as much a great quip as an accurate portrayal of what may very well soon become reality. France has been going down the path of appeasement and unbridled immigration for the last 10-20 years. They are now learning the hard way that they have basically sacrificed their future by adopting policies that may have created an irreversible downward trend towards Islamic radicalism inside France.

There are two great indicators that a country has basically thrown in the towel on their own future. One is when a country allows any part of it to become a “safe zone.” What that really means is that an area is not truly part of the country. The police have no serious impact on what goes on there. The reality is chaotic at best. But at worst, it basically is a State within a State. France is going in that direction. The United States has had some terrible experiences trying this out. If this turns into a trend, that is a major red line that is being crossed.
The other indicator is letting in too many problematic immigrants over a short span of time. Immigration can be a great boon to the economy, or it can destroy a country. Therefore, it must be handled carefully. France, Belgium, Sweden, and other European countries are great examples of how not to handle immigration.
Israel is now starting to repair the mistakes of the Oslo Accords debacle that armed Arabs who hate Jews. It is also now fixing the terrible ramifications of the Gaza Disengagement pipe dream. That absurd idea led by Prime Minister Sharon gave these same Arabs a defacto State to build a massive terror infrastructure and launch more serious terror attacks that terrorized millions of Israelis.
But now, a vast majority of Israelis know that Israel must completely disarm and destroy the entire terrorist infrastructure in Gaza and Judea and Samaria. Additionally, Israel, with the prodding of the Trump administration has begun the long, but necessary process of encouraging and sometimes forcing refugees out of Israel. Otherwise, the ticking time bombs will explode yet again in our faces. Tough choices, but there is truly no other reasonable way if Israel does not want to deal with more massive terror attacks from within it’s borders.
