French President Emmanuel Macron is once again brushing off a scandal of national importance—this time, ignoring his own Interior Ministry’s bombshell intelligence report that outlines a decades-long infiltration by the Muslim Brotherhood into European institutions, Islamic associations, and migrant communities.
While the report—released by Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau—clearly warns of a coordinated strategy to implement Sharia law across the West, Macron’s response was all-too familiar: minimize the threat, attack the critics, and label the concerns as “conspiracy theories.”
A Dangerous Pattern of Denial
Macron, already known for his ability to escape political accountability, has once again taken the posture of deflection over confrontation, admitting infiltration exists only in “some neighborhoods” while warning the public not to be “paranoid.”
“That can make you conspiratorial or paranoid,” Macron cautioned, essentially asking the French public to ignore a direct security threat outlined by his own intelligence apparatus.
This isn’t just deflection—it’s a dereliction of duty.
A Deeply Rooted Islamist Strategy
The report reveals that the Muslim Brotherhood has embedded itself deep within European civil society, using victimhood narratives, “Islamophobia” campaigns, and leftist political allies to normalize Islamist ideology and gain influence. Their ultimate goal: undermining secular democracy and replacing it with theocratic rule.
Even more troubling is how these efforts have successfully manipulated the political left, as evidenced by far-left figure Jean-Luc Mélenchon’s response. He branded the report “Islamophobic” and claimed it echoed 1930s antisemitic conspiracies—an appalling comparison that trivializes both Islamist threats and historical Jewish persecution.
Retailleau Fires Back: “Accomplices and Useful Idiots”
Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau—who may soon challenge Macron politically—didn’t mince words. He accused the French left of being “accomplices and useful idiots of Islamism,” and warned that the Brotherhood’s use of taqiyya (religious dissimulation) has allowed them to advance their agenda under a veil of tolerance and victimhood.
“The progression of Islamist entryism is profound; few saw it coming. It is at the heart of a Republican fight,” Retailleau stated.
Conclusion: National Security Can’t Be Canceled
France is at a turning point. It can either face the truth and confront the Islamist agenda growing within its borders, or it can continue letting political correctness and elite cowardice pave the way for civilizational decline.
The Muslim Brotherhood is not a myth. It’s a movement with a mission—and Macron’s refusal to sound the alarm may be one of the most dangerous blunders of his presidency.
