Excuse my French

A Saturday Short

Recently with the police shooting of 17-year-old Algerian immigrant Nahel Merzouk, France is facing its own wave of George Floyd-style demonstrations with fires, devastation, and destructive actions on businesses, office buildings, and vehicles of every type. Under President Emmanuel Macron protests have become commonplace. Macron’s neoliberal policies and globalist yearnings have sparked protests from Macron's economic programs, to pension reforms, to worker union rights, and yellow jacket carbon tax riots. Since his election in May of 2017, the streets of Paris have been consistently inundated with protestors and dissenters of all ideological leanings.

Bill Colley is a talk show host with News Radio KLIX out of Twin Falls, Idaho. He writes the linked column “Another Strike against Green Energy in Idaho”. He cites that the current riots in France have as much to do with a  deficiency of jobs caused by the de-industrialization of Europe as it does with ethnic or religious tensions and immigrant hostilities. He claims that the standard of living in Europe is collapsing as a result of their transition to, and quest for, renewable energies. Colley explains the detrimental issues the political fight on fossil fuels will have on the agricultural sector of Idaho - the state’s largest employer.

Colley mentions the strife at the International Energy Agency (IEA) which is the West’s energy advisory body. As I have written about previously regarding the Forbes article he mentions, it states, “IEA has allowed itself to be used as a tool for climate extremism, has misled policymakers, and has endangered the world’s economy and Western security, all while forsaking the purpose for which it was created.” Coincidentally, the IEA is headquartered in Paris, France.

All in all, Colley’s article while short, again acknowledges that renewable energy is for dreamers, dunces, and dimwits.
