I guess Jacque Pepin's cooking show will revert to reruns for awhile.

It is odd the French don't understand that they way to snuff it out, is to have a show of massive manpower on the streets. That is the signal that the party is over.

They're afraid that such a show of manpower would inflame the situation, which just goes to show that the French don't know their customer. ....a customer that views the soft French reaction (curfews, warnings, etc.) as weakness and is thus
encouraged to continue rioting.
Many Westerners (mostly Euro/American leftists) are completely unable to grasp the Islamic mindset.

It appears to me that when the POLICE ask for help from the military, they should be listened to.

I was in Rennes about 5 years ago, and it was just a regular small French city, IIRC. I remain in shock...

OMG... that "flashpoints" map is absolutely incredible. There damn well better not be any "trouble" near any of our US military cemeteries in France...

No, I am not exaggerating. Click the pic, go to "last," and read backwards.
If you are not informed about this stuff, you will be made sick. If you are informed, you will be made mad, all over again.
May I call attention to my tagline?

Yes, they better watch their own house before they criticize us. It's a different story when someone else is attacked. But when it's us...we're supposed to "understand". BULL CRAP!!!
To: Cobra64
It's Bush's fault because he didn't send in American military and FEMA within 24 hours of the French riots. Bush should be impeached, tried for murder, and executed.That post made me literally laugh out loud.
Now I'm watching Christiane Amanpour interview these "youth"--"There are no jobs! The government is doing nothing for us! The police harass us!" It's only a matter of time before they somehow blame George W. Bush.

I'd say a slight majority of Caucasian muslims from North Africa and the ME. A lesser number of Black muslims from further south in Africa. A minute number of Black non muslims.

They are afraid that a massive show of manpower and a firm crack down would drive the far Left out of the current ruling coalition. Realpolitik is, sadly, running this show.
