France: Sabotage Incidents Attacking Arms Industry on the Rise

France: Sabotage Incidents Attacking Arms Industry on the Rise

Under cover of darkness on the night of April 6–7, a series of coordinated arson attacks struck multiple sites connected to the arms industry in France’s Cher department, raising concerns about targeted sabotage and the security of critical infrastructure. Far from being isolated incidents, they reflect a worrying trend: that of radical activism reaching a new level by directly targeting the country’s strategic industrial capabilities in a climate of relative leniency and underestimation of the phenomenon.

France’s Fuel Shortages Expose Europe’s New Energy Crisis

France’s Fuel Shortages Expose Europe’s New Energy Crisis

12% of French petrol stations have run out of at least one type of fuel. The French government insists there is no nationwide shortage and no supply crisis. Officials describe the problem as a series of “local and temporary logistical tensions,” concentrated mainly in the network of TotalEnergies’ service stations.

But the figure matters because of what it reveals. Europe’s new energy crisis, triggered by the war with Iran and rising tensions around the Strait of Hormuz, is no longer an abstract geopolitical risk. It is beginning to affect ordinary life.

‘Be serious… don’t speak every day’: Macron criticises Trump approach to Iran war

The Iran war requires a “serious” approach that does not change every day, Emmanuel Macron has said, in an apparent reference to US President Donald Trump’s seemingly contradictory remarks about the conflict.

“This is not a show. We are talking about war and peace and the lives of men and women,” the French president told journalists upon arrival in South Korea for a state visit.

“When you want to be serious you don’t say every day the opposite of what you said the day before,” Macron added.

Two-Thirds of French Say “Anti-White Racism” Exists

Beaten by Muslims

A recent poll reveals that 67% of French people see “anti-white racism” as a reality in France today.

Conducted by the CSA Institute for CNEWS, Le JDD, and Europe 1, it shows that France is divided on the question. While the majority of those polled acknowledges the phenomenon, voters on the left largely reject the idea: 64% of those supporting the far-left La France Insoumise and 72% of Green party supporters disagree with the hypothesis.

Far Left in French Town Halls: Is Civil War Looming?

In the areas where they have just been elected, the mayors from La France Insoumise (LFI) are already making a name for themselves for all the wrong reasons. Recourse to violence, communalism, and sectarianism—they paint a worrying picture of France in the hands of the far left.

Although Jean-Luc Mélenchon’s party is far from having secured the resounding victory it claims in the press following its results in the March 2026 French municipal elections, it has won a few symbolic strongholds that allow it to assert that a “new France” is emerging.

French police detain brothers over ‘lethal and antisemitic’ plot

French anti-terror prosecutors have opened an investigation into two brothers suspected of plotting a “lethal and antisemitic” attack.

They say the men – described as Moroccan-Italian nationals aged 20 and 22 – were picked up last week in a car in northern France.

Officers found a loaded semi-automatic weapon, a bottle of hydrochloric acid and a flag of the Islamic State group in the vehicle, the prosecutors say.

France Prepares Mission To Open Strait of Hormuz as Oil Prices Surge

France has announced preparations for an “international mission” to keep open the Strait of Hormuz, as the war surrounding Iran threatens one of the world’s most important energy routes. The move signals that Paris is considering direct military participation in efforts to secure shipping through the narrow waterway linking the Persian Gulf to global markets.

France shows the peril of a Green-Muslim alliance

Gone are the days when the Green Party’s main concern was the Ozone layer. Ahead of today’s Gorton and Denton by-election, the Greens distributed leaflets and videos in Urdu urging voters to “punish Labour for Gaza”. Their keffiyeh-wearing candidate, Hannah Spencer, also says that a vote for her will “stop Islamophobia”.

It is shameless pandering to the Pakistani community, which is approximately 20 per cent of the population of Gorton and Denton. The strategy may be a shock for some but it shouldn’t be a surprise. In the 2024 local elections, a Green councillor celebrated his victory in the Gipton and Harehills ward in Leeds with a cry of “Allahu Akbar”, adding: “We will not be silenced. We will raise the voice of Gaza. We will raise the voice of Palestine.”

Six in Ten Believe French Far-Left Party ‘Complacent‘ over Antifa Threat

The majority of French voters believe that the far-left La France Insoumise party of Jean-Luc Mélenchon have poorly handled its response to the alleged Antifa killing of a conservative student in Lyon and has been too “complacent” in the face of the violence of the so-called anti-fascist movement.

Justice for Quentin: Lyon Prepares for Major March

A heavy police presence is being deployed in Lyon on Saturday as thousands prepare to march in honour of slain activist Quentin Deranque, whose death last week has shaken France and intensified political tensions ahead of next year’s presidential race.

The rally, expected to draw between 2,000 and 3,000 participants, will proceed under tight security despite calls from Lyon’s Green mayor to ban it. Residents along the planned route have boarded up ground-floor windows, fearing clashes with counter-protesters.

Parliamentary aide among 11 arrested over killing of French far-right activist

Assistant to hard-left parliamentarian among those held over fatal attack on 23-year-old Quentin Deranque

Eleven suspects, including a parliamentary aide to France’s hard-left party, have been arrested in connection with the killing last week of a far-right activist in an incident that has shocked the country and laid bare its deep political divisions.

Quentin Deranque, 23, died on Saturday after sustaining a severe brain injury. The Lyon prosecutor, Thierry Dran, said he had been “thrown to the ground and beaten by at least six individuals” during an incident last week.

France: Muslim Foreigners Voting?

The left in France is pushing for a law that would give non-EU foreigners — most of them Muslims from North Africa — the right to vote in municipal elections. That could mean some city halls being taken over by Muslims, voting as a bloc, or by Muslim-pandering leftists of La France Insoumise. Once in power in city and town halls, these Muslims or Muslim-submissive leftists could pass local laws that promote Islam in a hundred sundry ways: turning over city-owned property to be repurposed as mosques, allowing the call to prayer to be electronically amplified, even in pre-dawn and late-evening hours, having school lunchrooms closed during Ramadan, making Muslim holidays into city holidays, ending coeducational swimming in the city-run pools, and much more to accommodate Muslim sensibilities.

Parliamentary Panel: Islamism Poses an Existential Threat to France

Islamism constitutes an existential threat to France, as the danger now lies within and includes a separatist dimension involving ideological militant coalitions with the far left and anticolonial movements, a bombshell report from lawmakers in France’s National Assembly warns.

Published on December 17, 2025, the 639-page dossier reveals that the French Muslim vote has gravitated heavily to the Left, with a notable preference for La France Insoumise (LFI), a far-left party accused of strategically collaborating with Islamism to gain control over France.
