Macron and the Fall of France
American Thinker, Jan 16, 2019, Doug Petrikat

[...]

In an interview conducted in April 2018, Macron stated that due to explosive third-world population growth, Europe will be entering an age of unprecedented mass migration from Africa and that the people of the two continents have a shared destiny.  He was referring to an estimate that within the next few decades, the number of Africans living in Europe will increase from nine million to as many as 200 million.  [...]

On November 11, 2018 in Paris at a ceremony commemorating the 100th anniversary of the end of World War I, Macron gave a speech in which he criticized nationalism, calling it the opposite of patriotism.  This was obviously meant for some of the world leaders in attendance who have expressed nationalist views.  It was implied that nationalism caused the war and that its resurgence will result in new conflicts.  However, this claim is a misleading attempt to further a globalist agenda.

The political philosopher Yoram Hazony has convincingly argued that the assertion that nationalism caused the two world wars is simplistic.  The anti-nationalist rhetoric is in reality part of an ideological conflict over the political organization of the world.  Nationalism calls for the world to be organized around sovereign nation-states that each take into account the unique characteristics, culture, and needs of their people while respecting the sovereignty of other nation-states.  Globalists oppose nationalism because they believe that nation-states should be subject to laws imposed by international organizations, gradually giving up their rights as sovereign nations, and ultimately wither away to fall under one-world government.  Each side in this ideological conflict believes that following its own views will result in more stability, peace, and prosperity.

Macron once said that there is no such thing as French culture.  It was ridiculous to say such a thing, but culture is part of national identity.  To flood your nation with millions of economic migrants from the Third World is certainly a way to alter culture and national identity.

"Macron" -- destined to earn a place in French history congruent to Chamberlain's on the British island...
