But the real clue is this . . .
Those rioters were permitted to engage in completely violent activity with almost no legal constraints at all over a period of days, weeks, and maybe even months. If they were really interested in "jihad," don't you think they might have done more damage than that? Heck -- I don't think I even remember reading about any fatalities (or even serious injuries) in those riots.
If that's a "jihad," then those French Muslims ought to be ashamed of themselves. When I was a kid I could do more damage with my group of friends even without having the carte blanche from the police.
Unlike the situation in other western countries, most Muslims in France aren't immigrants. They're typically the children of gainfully-employed immigrants from former French colonies (Algeria, for example), most of whom have very little connection to Islamic practices at all.
Check out the guy in the photo below who's about to get himself a "wooden shampoo." I'll bet he's no more of a Muslim than the A-hole who attacked Reginald Denny during the Rodney King riot in Los Angeles.
