« Islam in France », by Michel Gurfinkiel, nineteen years later : a seminal article on demographic change.
A MESSAGE FROM THE MIDDLE EAST FORUM
Since its inaugural issue in 1994, the Middle East Quarterly has featured a diverse array of academics, policymakers, journalists, and other specialists offering insights critical to understanding the Middle East and Islam.
One of the ten most widely read Middle East Quarterly articles, that have stood the test of time in shedding light on events of today, is :
Michel Gurfinkiel, “Islam in France: The French Way of Life Is in Danger,” Middle East Quarterly, March 1997, pp. 19-29.

In this extraordinarily prescient article, Michel Gurfinkiel, then-editor-in-chief of the conservative French weekly Valeurs Actuelles and now a Shillman-Ginsburg fellow at the Middle East Forum, observes a “gradual shift among French Muslims toward increased identification with religion and a more rigorous practice of the faith,” exhibited by increased face-veiling among women and other practices.
Noting the rapid growth rate of the Muslim community (from around 100,000 in 1945 to 3 million in 1997), Gurfinkiel suggested that the “French way of life, with its emphasis on individual freedom and secularism,” was being slowly eroded as France grew more multiconfessional.
Il l’avait prédit …. Personne s’en est occupé en 1997… Et aujourd’hui ? Toujours pareil !
Nos gouvernants ont ils l’intention de se réveiller ??
Ce peuple de lâches, de lèche-babouches suicidaires,dirigé par des islamo-collabos sera exterminé et remplacé par nos gentils “invités” avant la fin du siècle, tout comme Rome l’a été en 476, par les barbares fuyant les Huns qui s’étaient réfugiés dans l’empire Romain!
