I understand the sensitivity about naming Muslims as the culprits in some serious riots that broke out in the northern city of Amiens in France last night. Blaming a group with little proof would only worsen the situation.
But who lives in the area where the riots occurred? These are the suburbs of France where immigrants - many of North African origin -- live outside the mainstream of French political and cultural life. Economically depressed with little opportunity to escape, the massive number of young people with no prospects and little hope hate the police and government and can start a riot for no reason.
A thumbnail of the suburbs from CSM:
The suburb residents are mostly Arab or African, often Muslim and poor. One-third live below the poverty line. Some are immigrants, but increasingly they are second- and third-generation immigrants, descended from guest workers who arrived in the 1960s and '70s.
Thirty-nine percent of the residents are under age 25, and youth unemployment tops 40 percent (compared with 20 percent and 22 percent, respectively, nationwide). There is little doubt that Muslim youth were at least part of the riot last night in Amiens. But you won't find that conclusion in any media story about the riot, nor will the French authorities acknowledge the obvious; that they have an immigrant problem and Muslims are a big part of it.

Sounds like they turned it into what they left Africa for.
Charles Martel, must be rolling in his grave!
...he stopped an army of 50,000 Muslims,
saving France, and Western Europe.
-
now, France has an army of millions of Muslims,
LIVING in France, in “No Go” Zones,
SUPPORTED by the French !
-
...and the future? -
“Thirty-nine percent of the residents are under age 25”
It won't be long before the entitlement crowd is marching in the streets of America demanding their free handouts as well. They're consuming Americas resources at a record pace. Soon, they'll have consumed it all.
NOTE: There will be no talk of sharing the work. A job is not what they want, even though it's what America needs to repair the nation after generations of freeloading.
think we need a TAKE OFF AND NUKE IT FROM ORBIT poster.
the french and the swedish should use this as an opportunity to train their troops in live fire MOUT (Mounted Operations in Urban Terrain) exercises or, as we called it, COITUS (Combat Operations In The Urban Sprawl).
Doing the work that the French won’t do. Sounds familiar.
An interesting metaphor. Who can pretend that with the city in flames, the match isn't already lit?
I find myself coming down on the "full disclosure" side of things. I think it is presumptuous and unprofessional of the press to assume that its members may decide what information is permissible to promulgate under the rubric of "higher purpose". It's bad enough when the government does that.
BW..you’re a bad boy..”Combat Operations etc.” I guess you are right though,..”F” em all!
I bet they are those darling little Mus Lambs. They are the religion of peace or is is piece? After those Mus Lambs get done with most infidels they leave them in pieces. But after you die I guess you are pretty peaceful.
Screw global warming. Someone has to do something about this ‘’gangs of youths’’ problems before there’s no cars left!! Won’t someone think of the children!?!.
The youths aren’t Sallic Franks. Amiens was the capital of the Franks for a time. This is a disgrace to Western Civ and French culture, but both are already dead and these swine feed on the decayed host.
