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.

This could spread...when muslims around the world want to show their counterparts in France that they can attack the infidels just a viciously as the next guy.

At least they are showing the world what they are really about by attacking the synagogues...very ominous.

Yep, send in the failure. The French economy is about how it was in the 70's here.... Maybe Carter can give them some pointers on that too...

Actually, Hitler ordered the burning of Paris
as German forces retreated..it was only the personal
decision of a german general to disobey thatorder,
that saved Paris from being razed to the ground.

I agree on the "canary in the coal mine"-viewpoint". In a way is it a good thing that this is happening in France now, so everybody can see what's really going on in Europe - that the wast number of immigrants actually is a risk for the national security. But I don't think it is DeGaulle's fault. The fault lies in the softness the european socialists have shown for decades with regards to what kind of persons they let into their countries. I wonder who's up next for the moslem riots? England or Germany maybe?

This could be really serious. I'm starting to wonder if there is any possible way for France to handle this without surrendering. This is no joke: I'm serious about that statement. What the heck are they going to do to get these unmentionables back in line?

The media apparently feel that they need to save all the bad news for the stories about our efforts in Iraq. When do we start calling the situation in France a quagmire?

I get what you are saying a agree 100%..that is their goal.Take over the world..will the governments stop for a minute and take note of what is going on..I say round them up and send them back where they came from.

The attack on America was like a fire bell ringing, waking other countries up to the growing masses of Muslims in their midst. It was noticed that these Muslims made no effort to blend in with the local population. Instead, Muslims banded together, taking over neighborhoods and eventually driving out the non-Muslims.And that is happening all over the world..

And Paris was not burned and that is my point the Generals knew better than to burn Paris. With Hitlers syphilis mind the Generals had to take over command....Hitler was much like the Muslim's he wanted to rule the world..Isn't it ironic their has never been one world leader..that is coming and I hope it will not be during my time on earth..

But my point is, it was the decision of one man,
not act of "the Germans" that saved Paris. A decision
that put his life at risk, not only by the allies,
but by those till loyal to Hitler.

I don't mean to be picky, and thanks for the post, but the original headline is:

French riots spread beyond Paris

Far more descriptive and avoids duplication.

Nice analogy, but I don't think they have really heard the bell yet.

THIS is the media. I don't know why everyone is SO UPSET about what the MSM is not reporting because no one is watching. Ask a 19 year old who Bob Schieffer and Aaron Brown and Dan Rather are and they will not be able to tell you. The population of Dallas goes up and up and the circulation of the paper goes down and down. We log on to find out. We know what's happening.
