Nadine Morano: is she right or merely barmy?

Nadine Morano is a Euro deputy representing Les Republicains (Sarkozy party), but is becoming famous for her "foot-in-mouth" remarks. Her latest contribution to the debate was to say that France is a country of the white race. That may strike a chord with many of more or less racist views, but ignores the Article 1 of the constitution which makes it clear that observation of republican values of Liberte, Fraternite, Egalite is what is required, regardless of origin, race or religion. And bien sur the decision of that white race to occupy large swathes of the black races' African territory is ignored.

Mme Morano also recently suggested that the Syrian refugees should have stayed to fight, an argument often heard, ignoring the 250000 deaths and she wondered what would have happened if the French had done that in 1940. Of course that ignores the fact that France decided to surrender and about 8 million "migrated" from the occupied north to the unoccupied so-called free zone. The perennial denial of collaboration or acquiescence by the majority of French people seems always to be out-weighed by those who became resistants, rather than those who fled abroad to join the allied armies.
