What I'm wonderig is if the French-by-blood citizens will even bother to stay. We could see something akin to the emigration of Arab Christians out of the Middle East if demographic trends continue.

Around that yea, plus niggers, asians and other race. But we still get less immigrants per average than the UK or Germany now. A lot come through France to try and get into England or crossing the Rhine to Germany.

Exactly. France has close to the lowest net migration rate in all the EU. France's immigration has been restricted a lot as of late. So (current) immigration is not the main problem... the problem is the fact that a lot of the muslims and blacks already in France breed like mad. This is why France's birth rate is 1.85 per woman (and you can bet that among french women this average is much lower).

France may be feeling more of the symptoms now but with the rising immigration in the rest of western Europe... France will certaintly not be alone come 2050 if things don't change. Western Europe is going to go to shit more or less. (and North America... though to be honest I believe the US and Canada have already had their nail in the coffin.)

That's right Raven. Just because a country has the highest non white population in Europe right now doesn't mean it will "fall" before. Immigration and non-white birthrate will count the most, it can be sure.

I thought Germany had 80+ million citizens as of now?

Can't you just read the whole article ?
France would then replace Germany, where the population would fall from 82 million to under 71 million, as the most populous country of the EU as it is now constituted.

A France with a large population and strong industrial base is the requisite condition of renewed French continental dominance which hasn't existed since Napoleon. :D Good news all 'round!

The situation is going to end up like the Copts of Egypt, that is if the Europeans are not put to the sword for insulting Islam by existing.

I think I'm correct in saying that France has the most generous child allowances of any country in Europe.
For the benefit of non-Europeans, child allowances are tax-free payments made directly to the mother each week or month until the child is 16. The more children, the larger the allowance.
This policy was instituted in the aftermath of WW I as a means of stimulating the native birth-rate, with an eye on Germany particularly. Since then of course its provisions have been extended to all residents.

I know a couple copts. The things they tell me about the islamist vs. copt situation in Egypt is bad. The islamists commit acts of terrorism on hotel buildings, they rape and kill copt nuns, they kill priests, etc. This is what happens when you are something like a 6% minority in a muslim majority nation. One of them was born in Canada but his parents were born in Egypt and lived well but left due to the anti-christian bs over there. The other was born in Egypt but they moved into UAE and even there even though they held a great standard of living, they treated christians as second-class. (my friend told me about how these muslim cops in UAE were hitting on his sister and making her very uncomfortable and they wouldn't let his sister go to University in UAE back in 97/98 due to the bias against non-muslims so they went to Canada.)
