Pierre Brochand was the head of France’s counter-intelligence agency, the DGSE, from 2002 to 2008. He has been warning about the dangers of what he calls the mass “colonizing immigration” — by which he means the migration of millions of Muslim migrants who enter France not to become French, but to turn France into a “colony” that will be dominated by the once-colonized maghrebins. More on his grim outlook can be found here: “French riots show that decades of mass ‘colonizing immigration’ could lead to ‘collapse,’ says former head of French counter-intelligence agency,” by Olivier Bault, Remix News, July 8, 2023:
After mass riots during the past week shocked France and the world, the former head of France’s powerful DGSE intelligence agency says the root cause of his country’s tragic situation is above all “the dominant ideology, which has justified and even glorified the massive colonizing immigration that has been taking place over the last half-century.”
Pierre Brochand was head of France’s DGSE counter-intelligence agency from 2002 to 2008. Since 2019, he has made repeated calls for a radical change in his country’s immigration policy over what he says is the looming threat of civil war.
In his position as head of the DGSE, Brochand was in the best position to know the full economic and social cost of Muslim economic migrants, their rates of criminality, the benefits the state conferred on them, their attitudes toward integration, their deep antipathy to France and the French, whose country they are busy “colonizing” in reverse.
In a discussion about immigration on the public radio station France Culture last April, Brochand issued a warning which found its full expression in the week of violent rioting and looting that took hold of France after the shooting of a teenager of Algerian origin on June 27:
If we do nothing or if we do little, we are going to head either towards a progressive implosion of social trust in France, that is to say towards a society where the quality of life will collapse and where it will be less and less pleasant to live, or, by successive explosions, towards confrontations that will make France a country where one will not be able to live at all.”
Now, in an interview published on July 6 on the website of Le Figaro daily newspaper, Brochand exposes, as Le Figaro puts it, “the deadly cocktail of a society of individuals based on openness and democracy and the arrival of entire diasporas with totally different cultural backgrounds.”
The least that can be said is that the former counter-intelligence chief’s analysis stands in sharp contrast to Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin’s own analysis, made in the National Assembly on July 5. According to Darmanin, the riots of the previous days are not linked to immigration as “only” 10 percent of the rioters were foreigners….
Darmanin’s comments were ridiculous. He claimed that there were “a lot of Kevins and Matteos” (that is, white French people) among the rioters. Everyone who saw photographs of the rioters, as they pillaged and set fire to shops, cars, buses, libraries, mayor’s offices, and their photographs as they were being arrested, everyone who heard their Allahu-akbaring, knew that what Darmanin said was absurd. As for “only 10 percent” of them being “foreigners” – that is, non-citizens – the other 90% were almost all second and third-generation immigrants, who may have been citizens since birth, but nonetheless remained foreigners, hostile to France and to the French, in their mental makeup.
Brochand continued in his Le Figaro interview:
Brochand says the changes that have led to the current decomposition of French society happened in the 1970s, when France made its transition from a modern national state to a society of individuals.
Together with the immigration of workers, France began to experience what increasingly became an immigration of settlers (Brochand uses the French term “immigration de peuplement”, which can also be translated as “colonizing immigration”). The transition to a society of individuals has created what he calls a scissor effect. Hence, in Brochand’s eyes, internal partition is the natural inclination of the multicultural societies of Western Europe….
The decline in the feeling of an intelligent nationalism, and the rise of individualism, on the part of the French, have left France open to a catastrophic phenomenon: large-scale immigration, virtually unopposed, of Muslim economic migrants who are not interested in integration, but instead despise the French despite the tens of billions of euros lavished on them, and whose presence has meant greater societal division, increased crime, and the horrific expense of maintaining these “spoiled stepchildren” of the very Republic that they so violently reject.
There were 600,000 immigrants – almost all of them Muslims from North Africa – in 2022, a new record.
Meanwhile, a large majority of French people are strongly opposed to what increasingly appears to be a dangerous social engineering experiment by the liberal elites, something Éric Zemmour has called a Ribbentrop-Molotov pact between Western liberals and Islam against the white, heterosexual, Catholic French man. Indeed, 74 percent of French people now think there are too many immigrants in their country and 62 percent would want France to disobey EU treaties and EU law to stop immigration.
The latter is an important point, in particular in light of the ruling by the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) against Switzerland that was delivered just a few days ago, which extends the right to family reunification even to refugees who have only obtained a temporary residence permit and not asylum. Let us not forget that EU member states have the obligation, as per the EU treaties, to abide by the rulings of the ECHR….
The French now reject the oversight of their immigration policy by both EU and by the European Court of Human Rights; almost three-quarters of them want to restrict Muslim migration, no matter what treaties their country may have signed with the EU about taking in an assigned quota of immigrants, or what immigration-friendly rulings are handed down by the ECHR.
According to Brochand, somewhere between 100,000 and 200,000 may have taken part in the urban violence, creating a situation much more dangerous than in 2005, when similar rioting took place in France’s suburbs. Nothing comparable had ever happened since the French Revolution of 1789, notes Brochand, and, this time, even provincial towns have been affected by the troubles alongside the centers of big cities, in contrast to what happened 18 years ago when most of the rioting was constricted to the so-called sensitive neighborhoods.
The June-July riots took place everywhere in France: in big cities, small cities, even in rural areas where Muslims had been sent to settle by the state. In 2005, the riots were confined to the “banlieues” (suburbs) occupied only by Muslims. And the numbers of those taking part in this summer’s riots were huge, in the hundreds of thousands, far exceeding the tens of thousands who took part in the 2005 riots.
“I would describe the present catastrophe as an uprising or revolt against the French national state, by a significant proportion of the youth of non-European origin present on its territory,” says Brochand.
“Will we draw the right lessons from this, given that the country’s vital prognosis is at stake? Will we consider remedies other than yet another ‘plan for the suburbs?’ Things being what they are, I doubt it,” he concludes on a pessimistic note….
By another “plan for the suburbs” Brochand is referring to the government’s only answer to violent unrest by Muslims, which is to throw still more money at the migrants, setting up new programs, new ways of supporting them which are supposed to lead to better integration, but instead, only confirms them in their belief that violence pays. So far, for these Muslims, it always has.
When the Gendarmerie Colonel Philippe Cholous spoke on July 2, the riots still had three days (out of a total of seven) to run. By the time they were over, there were far more vehicles and shops burned than in the three weeks of the riots in 2005.
A few days after the riots stopped, an opinion poll revealed that one-third of the French trust none of their political leaders to “find solutions” to the violence, while 62% favored three leaders of the “far-right” – Marine Le Pen, Jordan Barella, the leader and chairman, respectively, of the National Rally, and the journalist-cum-politician Eric Zemmour, founder of Le Reconquête, a right-wing political party.
Clearly the French electorate has moved far to the right on the issue of immigration. But Macron, who shows little sign of comprehending the immigration catastrophe, still has four years to rule. He is far behind the people he presumes to protect, but they are stuck with him until 2026.
Both the former head of the French intelligence service, the DSGE, Pierre Brochand, and a high-ranking police official, Gendarmerie Colonel Philippe Cholous, see a “dark, very dark” future for France (Brochand), and “in certain areas there is a real hatred of France” and “an explosive situation” (Cholous). After the latest riots, only fools – such as Emmanuel Macron and Gerard Darmanin — would dare to say them nay.

Well, that was obvious from the onset.Only ignorant idiots invite muslims into their country.

The deafening silence on the part of the fake news media is another scary symptom of the slide into madness.
On another note the most common word for mother in Arabic is “umm”, The word for the world after its subjugation by is Islam is Ummah.
From a psychological point of view this would engrain the connection during childhood and through to adulthood. They are not snapping out of this in a hurry. This connection would be indelible.
OLD GUY says
Yes the muslim/islamic migration invasion of countries with open border policies is moving ahead at full force.
Michael Copeland says
The origin of all this invasion is an agreement made (without the peoples’ knowledge or involvement) between the EU and the Arab world in 1975, extorted by their quadrupling of the oil price.
A short video has this explained on YouTube:

Well, Michael, that says it all. And like many of us have been thinking and saying for some time….it’s all going according to their plan…their evil plan.
Thanks for posting the link. Everyone breathing air needs to see it.

Thanks.

America will probably Never learn from any of this as long as Democrats are in charge/having an influence. Then again,many probably aren’t even paying attention and even if more were,what was previously stated probably holds true. I sorrow for the future of this country(America) as well as for France or any other country that succumbs to stupdity/ignorance.

For decades if you said boo about Muslims, let alone too many immigrants/invaders you were immediately branded a far-right racist, bigot and Islamophobe who deserves to be burned at the stake.
The “center” and Left made it a taboo subject to even consider putting in sensible controls for migration and they took their marching orders from the UN/EU, which means rich Arabs ultimately and this is the result.
There’s about 150k police officers and 100k military men/women in France. If there are 400-600k Muslim rioters, how do they expect to contain them, without the use of massive perhaps even lethal force?
Imagine the terror that girls/women/gays/elderly/Jews feel with so many mobs of Muslims running around, trashing and burning cities.
France being a Lefty country probably has a ban on guns like most other western nations so the ordinary people are largely defenseless.
If there’s one positive outcome is that the problem is so huge and visible that it cannot be ignored even by the radical Lefty-loons…ofc they keep victim-blaming (non-Muslims) like battered wives (no offense to them), thinking it’ll solve the problem, but how will that quell the angry, ‘Arab/African’ mob?
The French have been called ‘surrender-monkeys’ in the past, but hopefully they’ve learned their lessons from dealing with Nazis and that they’ll find their backbones again and deal with the new Muslim fascists.
Frankly I’m all for it…if Muslims want civil war, I’ll get my popcorn ready.

Civil War in modern America or Modern Europe just seems unreal and that’s possibly because of the inequality of means afforded to the two sides of the argument. In the English Civil War both sides had blunderbusses, horses, cannon, even pitchforks etc. The American Civil War wasn’t a great up step in technology. But the modern French state would obliterate any incipient militia if it wanted to which is why there won’t be a Civil war ;instead they have terrorism which they handle with itsi-bitsi teeny-weeny candle-holding baby-blubbering “We will stand firm…blah, blah, blah…”.
Whatever happened to “Aux armes citoyens! Aux armes!”.

In 1960 France ‘lost’ Algeria and Algerians lost their full French citizenship. The French didn’t know at the time how much of a bullet they dodged. Now Muslim hoards are burning, looting and despising France…. with full French citizenship in their hands.
