Less than 4% of French people attend Mass. That statistic means that there are 2.4M practicing Catholics in France and 6M Muslims.

So you are saying that the "practicing" Catholics are few in number and are afraid of the Muslims? So few in number that that they cannot speak out against this sustained violence?

I've seen no reports of the reaction of Jean-Marie Cardinal Lustiger...

Why haven't we seen reports? Why does it take a continued wave of violence and the flight of thousands of Jews from France for us to look for it?

I would be very interested to see what you find. Up until now, there hasn't been much comment at all. Not any that has been reported. So far, it doesn't pass the smell test.

It seems to me that every Frog, believer or not, is deathly afraid of this Islamic rabble.

They have effectively surrendered their country.

Ah, that would indeed seem to be the case.

Don't hold your breath about "French Catholics". They are Catholics in name only. Most of them only go to church three times in their lives: to be baptized, to get married and to be buried; or as a popularphrase puts it, "to be hatched, matched and dispatched." Most of Europe is already in a post-Christian era.

The silence of the Church on this is deafening

Can't say I disagree wih you.

JPII is Polish, and should speak out more than he has about anti-semitism, given his fellow countrymens propensity for Jew killing and the unacceptable level of hatred coursing through the veins of the islamic world and the Comintern.

The left hates religion of any kind, and is as rabidly anti-semitic as it is anti-christian.

Some anti-Semites can help themselves.

Instead of condemning the butchering of Jewish boys, you have to make an asinine statement about foreign policy.

Last time I checked, Egypt receives about the same foreign aid as Israel, and furthermore, all the Arab oil producing countries owe their wealth to American consumers.

If we find a way to run our cars using hydrogen (produced by burning coal) or other fuel, Saudi Arabia will be asking for American handouts.

If you really believe that, you are an idiot.

Their attentions simply hadn't been turned to us. I imagine that anything short of assisting them in exterminating Jews would be "supporting" them in their eyes.

Israel, as usual, will be the worlds largest recipient of US aid, with $2.16 billion in foreign military assistance and $480 million in economic support funds, making a total of $2.64 billion against $2.90 billion in 2003.


Meanwhile, the other two main beneficiaries of US foreign aid in the Middle East are Egypt and Jordan.

Egypt, which signed a peace treaty with Israel under US auspices in 1979, is the second-largest beneficiary, with a total of $1.875 billion in economic and military aid.

Jordan will be receiving around $459 million from Washington in 2004
