HN needs to keep the &quot;Le&quot; in Le Gorafi for the title - it&#x27;s an anagram of Le Figaro - the most conservative of the mainstream newspapers here in France.<p>Edit: For more information see here: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.huffingtonpost.fr&#x2F;2015&#x2F;08&#x2F;31&#x2F;le-gorafi-fini-site-annonce-sa-fin_n_8063514.html" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.huffingtonpost.fr&#x2F;2015&#x2F;08&#x2F;31&#x2F;le-gorafi-fini-site-...</a><p>Translated: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;translate.google.com&#x2F;translate?sl=fr&amp;tl=en&amp;js=y&amp;prev=_t&amp;hl=fr&amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.huffingtonpost.fr%2F2015%2F08%2F31%2Fle-gorafi-fini-site-annonce-sa-fin_n_8063514.html&amp;edit-text=" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;translate.google.com&#x2F;translate?sl=fr&amp;tl=en&amp;js=y&amp;prev...</a><p>Summary: It may only be a marketing ploy - they&#x27;re using a 302 temporary redirect instead of a 301 permanent re-direct, which some claim is for maintaining SEO...

Report by another French site:<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.20minutes.fr&#x2F;medias&#x2F;1675731-20150831-gorafi-fini" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.20minutes.fr&#x2F;medias&#x2F;1675731-20150831-gorafi-fini</a><p>P.S. Quoted reply basically says they see no future in web publishing, and expect an internet bubble burst shortly. Which the reporting site interprets as a continuing joke.

I want it to be clear for every reader: Le Gorafi is an equivalent to The Onion. It is not a satirical newspapers as Charlie Hebdo, so please stop talking about the immigration.

I expect Europe will face some huge troubles in the future, perhaps even a civil war.<p>And these problems will be caused by mass immigration and multiculturalism. Many immigrants aren&#x27;t interested into integrating with their host countries and in my country (The Netherlands) the immigrants also put a huge pressure on the welfare state, because of this the social cohesion is breaking down.<p>In my opinion any country should have a leading culture and immigrants should aspire to adopt the leading culture, since I believe sharing a culture strengthens the social cohesion.<p>The French secret service is already making preparations for what they call civil unrest: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.telegraph.co.uk&#x2F;news&#x2F;worldnews&#x2F;europe&#x2F;france&#x2F;11826862&#x2F;Airlines-told-to-expect-French-911-as-Hollande-warns-of-more-Islamist-violence.html" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.telegraph.co.uk&#x2F;news&#x2F;worldnews&#x2F;europe&#x2F;france&#x2F;1182...</a><p>I will try to emigrate within the next 10 years or so.
