America had put Sarkozy in office resulting in France becoming a vassal state.

The US is slowly taking over old French colonies, that's what's going on. Obama was selected to take Africa; present a dark face, so when you rape, plunder and pillage few will complain.

France needs the immigrants it so much hates for cheap labour. Most come from North Africa, Morocco, Tunisia and Alegeria, its ex-colonies.

However, it's more than just the immigrants it hates - it needs its North African maghribi colonies to meet its future energy needs - wind and sun... Russia controls its energy from the East and the US from the gulf - to be independent it needs docile lackey states...

Despite the rhetoric, the US hasn't dominated the Maghrib region - the EU is pumping hundreds of billions into the region for energy infrastructure projects. Security pacts mean that the maghrib belongs to the EU.
