Scenes of extraordinary lawlessness in France today. Rioters battered their way through the doors of Marseille City Hall, stormed the building, smashed furniture and toppled a bust of Marianne, the very symbol of the French Republic. Their battle cry: “It’s the Revolution, we’re taking the Bastille.” Palestinian flags were visible among demonstrators as violence spread through French cities. A municipal police station was also attacked, shops were vandalized, and riot police deployed tear gas. Storming government buildings and attacking police are acts of political violence, not peaceful protest. President Macron called for calm before the violence erupted. The question now is what his government will do to restore order.
🚨🇫🇷France is burning – Protesters are looting, smashing everything in sight, and setting fires across the country.
Lyon's tourist office torched. Marseille's city hall ransacked. Dozens of cars burning in Paris.

Rouen, TONIGHT. University of Rouen-Normandy. We are almost at a loss for words. Seeing schools and universities burning like this in France is devastating—it’s disheartening. The facade and roof of the Faculty of Arts building have been destroyed; 50 firefighters were deployed… pic.twitter.com/QbgGDxdx8n

The situation at the Place de la République in Paris.
Thousands of projectiles were launched against the police by Islamic rioters, and the ground is now completely covered in debris.

And where is President Emmanuel Macron? What has his government said about the violence, and what will it do to prevent further attacks?
France is in chaos again.
City Hall in Marseille has been stormed as rioters chant “we're going to take the Bastille”
Still think this is over “school conditions”?
It’s a third-world insurrection by an ideology that wants to conquer and destroy. pic.twitter.com/fTaMRohDgd

This looks more like an Islamist insurrection than a protest for nicer classrooms. pic.twitter.com/SE27LUnAPn

I can see many keffiyehs in the mob raiding Louis Vitton in Bordeaux. Pro-Pals are looting for Palestine now. Grim. pic.twitter.com/bVg1ejwvvG

What’s happening in France is what always happens when Islam and the left join forces.
It’s called the unholy alliance for a reason, and its only goal is to destroy Western civilization and pave the way for Sharia and communism. pic.twitter.com/44OYY4igLY
