Ah. I see. Your ideas about France and multiculturalism come from
frontpagemag.com. It's my sense that they either don't understand the French
*anti* multicultural heritage or seek to ignore it.
I quote someone whose politics I don't know, who does seem to know about France:
" The essential point is that multiculturalism has never been tried in France.
On the contrary, France's problems are a manifestation of the failure of its
flawed attempt at integration over half a century or so. "

Below is an indirect link (search hit 1) to a piece by Marty Schain ("Politics,
immigration and multiculturalism in France and the United States"): you might
find it instructive.
