“France’s mob lingered through two world wars, contributed significantly to the demoralization of the republic, and supported the Vichy Regime in its campaign against Jews. The American mob, with its sympathizers in academia, media, and politics, will likely remain skulking in the shadows, ready to burst into action with great energy and considerable political support. We must be aware of the ominous possibility that the direction of the American republic, as was the case in France, may be influenced by the mob.”
 
In “Wall Street, the Mob, and the French Connection” (717 words), professor of political science and fellow for American studies with The Center for Vision & Values at Grove City College—Dr. Marvin Folkertsma—connects a century’s worth of historical dots, starting with the 1894 Dreyfus Affair, which “centered on a Jewish officer from the French General Staff who had been unjustly accused of espionage for Germany. The case dragged on for years and ultimately resulted in his acquittal by a Court of Appeal, though not without inflaming passions about the nature of French society and its constitutional order, which continued to simmer through two world wars and the postwar era.” Dr. Folkertsma lays out some “chilling similarities between the detritus of French society at that time” and the U.S. mobs of today."

"For the Obama administration, after nearly three years of railing against “millionaires and billionaires” and American free enterprise while touting a European-style welfare state, the rise of the mob must appear as a godsend. What greater fun can be imagined by America’s progressive elites than to observe the country’s déclassé malcontents fulminating against their bogeymen?"

Gosh, I think he's saying this was engineered by malevolent forces!

 

Yup.

We all know where this is going, and if the Left thinks that is a good thing...well, The Directorate and it's supporters will learn different!

Clearing the fog of war a bit. The JFK Assassination seems to have Mob ties to some extent. Now the Mob is playing a new roll. Interesting, very interesting!
