More cars and shops have been set alight in Paris' suburbs, as youths rioted for an eight consecutive night. Most of the attacks are again taking place in the largely immigrant area of Seine-Saint-Denis, where about 1,000 police have been deployed.

They snickered in France when the Muslims were attacking the Jews, but now look what is happening to the rest of them.

As has been pointed out, Israel/the Jews are the canary in the coal mine. The Islamics believe France doesn't have the will to defend its western orientation. And the anti American DeGaulle running away from Algeria as he did didn't help things either. The current crises in France and its possible destruction can be laid at his footsteps!

If they don't have the spine to gun the
Insurrectionists down, and take back
their streets, and their towns, they
deserve everything that is going to
happen.

I notice the article barely refers to Islam--so much so that it's barely comprehensible. Two kids died, and a bunch of people are rioting... why? What's their connection? Why are Muslim leaders complaining about treatment of immigrant communities? The reporters are doing their darndest not to report something, but I can't tell what...

The 1992 LA riots lasted 6 days.

Obviously, the French don't give a rats-a$$ about France... once again, they've proven that they left their patriotism on the battlefield in WWI.

They'd give up their wives & daughters before they'd stand up for themselves.

BBC report from 1992 below. Note that race is mentioned in the first sentence and frequently afterwards.

Pre-view of coming attractions.

Re-view of past attractions.

The French have a gene that prevents them from learning from the past.

Paris is burning.

There will be even fewer jobs after these Muhammadans finish burning them all out. Yjis insurgency isn't going to end, unless Chirac guns them all down, which isn't likely.

Or maybe because they are arrogant fools who do not shower.

"The Islamics believe France doesn't have the will to defend its western orientation."

They're right.

Or to defend anything else. They don't even have the will to survive.

There is no snickering, no gloating, and no pleasure at all as the world watches France erupt--only horror, fear that this could be only the beginning, and astonishment that the French people could have been foolish enough to allow such circumstances to develop in the first place.

Those of us who love France only wish the French people had heeded the countless warnings that they ignored.

Yep, they are deliberabely underplaying the fact that these are MUSLIM rioters.

there is ALOT of damage already, but we aren't getting all the news. Five officers have been shot and wounded, along with 65 people hospitalized, over 400 cars burned, 27 busses, houses burned, businesses, etc.

I think things are even worse than they are telling us.

"Send John Kerry in to negotiate.... "

Or how about Jimmy Carter. He succeeded in Iran (depending on your point of view).

It's always astonishing when people choose morons like Carter, Chirac, Villepin, Schroeder, and Neville Chamberlain to lead them and are surprised when they wind up in a catastrophe.

The 1992 LA riots were apples, and these Paris riots are oranges. The world changed after 9/11. It's not just black gangs rioting about poverty and police brutality. There's a Muslim component and everything that implies at a time when President Bush has become more outspoken about the enemy Western Civilization faces (Islamofascism), the Madrid train bombings, and the 7/7 London Tube bombings.

If France thinks they'll patch this up by building nicer/better housing complexes and provide jobs these 'impoverished' immigrants might care to do, France is in for a shock. There are shadowy Muslim figures who can't wait to control these gangs, and they don't want a bite of the apple. They want the entire country.

The beginning? There have been Islamic uprisings all over the world for years. They just never get reported by MSM.

It's just spreading into Europe now. It won't be long before they start in Spain I bet.
Rahmadan has got them are worked up into their usual frenzy.
