Government defiant

French Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin, who cancelled a trip to Canada to tackle the crisis, said the violence was "unacceptable".

President Jacques Chirac on Wednesday called for calm, warning that an escalation would be "dangerous".

Typical French. Their capital is being burned to the ground and the strongest response that the govt. will muster is complaining and putting on a face of defiance. If the Islamics were to pull this kind of crap, it would be hunting season if the govt. response were this weak.

France has 751 neighbourhoods officially classed as severely disadvantaged, housing a total of five million people, around eight percent of the population.

The recent violence has exposed simmering discontent in those suburbs where African and Muslim immigrants and their French-born children are trapped by poverty, unemployment, racial discrimination, crime and poor education and housing.

Unemployment is these areas is often twice the national rate of 10 percent, and per capita incomes 40 percent below the national average.

Typical media tripe. Being poor is not an excuse to trash your neighborhood and it sucks that the media tries to float this excuse, like they do with the Palestinians. Great message for the world: "Put them on welfare and up their benefits or they'll throw garbage and set things on fire."

This is just the first step.The kikkings and bombings are coming later. They are now letting the "amatuers" test the waters, so to speak and see what the response the French authorties give.Also it is o see what tone the media takes.

When the time is right,the "professionals" will be issued the arms currently stored in the mosques and go to work.

The Jews in France should be getting very nervious, or,if they are smart, getting out.

Appears to be that way, doesn't it?

WE all know, from listening to the alphetabet media organizations, that the followers of mohammad are peaceful.

Brian Kilmeade on FNC just interviewed Newsweek's Christopher Dickey (IIRC) on the rioting in Paris.

Dickey never used the word Muslim in the report. He mentioned the word "mosque" once, in reference to some leaders from a local mosque (where they presumably practice Islam) who were trying to intercede with the rioters.

It's only a matter of time til a weapons-pipeline becomes operational.

This is what the Left wants in the USA. For some insane reason, they want the Islamo-fascists to win, not caring that they would be first against the wall.

The reason they want this to happen , and will aid and abet it happening to the best of their ability is their rabid hatered for our way of life. And their rabid hatered of President Bush because to them he represents out way of life. They want total power over us, in other words, they will be our masters with life or death power over us and we will be their slaves.

As you said, they will be the first the followers of mohammad put against the wall should they succeed.

This is what blind, rabid hatered does to you. It destroys your ability to reason logically and rationally.

"Dickey never used the word Muslim in the report. He mentioned the word "mosque" once..."

KIlmeade needs to pick up the ball and start using the word, "insurgents". Now that has a familiar ring.

Right! They are at war now and all chirac can do is hope the media downplays it. Yikes.

The French will be surrendering to the muslims, as they've done historically in other wars. In a while there will be no France OR Europe as we knew it.

Dickey said that it wasn't a language problem, that the rioters speak French. He suggested that the rioting was due to joblessness, but he didn't address why the jobless in the areas where rioting is taking place is between 20 to 30% Dickey didn't come right out and say it, but it seemed to me he was suggesting racial discrimination by the French, though Dickey also said that the folks in these burbs were all French citizens.
