I agree in the sense that, if we agree that France is getting what it "deserves", then we have no moral ground in protesting when other people claim that we "deserved" 9/11. A better way to phrase the poll might be to ask whether the current rioting was an expected result to a policy of constant appeasement and surrender. You are also correct in that the rest of Europe and the Islamofascists are watching closely. If the French do not begin an immediate, forceful and protracted response (which I doubt the Chirac government has the political will to do) then this will be rightly viewed as weakness and will result in the emboldening of the Islamofascists with subsequent increases in the frequency and intensity of future attacks.
