BOBIGNY, France (Reuters) -- French Interior Minister Nicolas Sarkozy defended his tough crime policies on Monday after a fourth night of riots in a Paris suburb in which tear gas was fired into a mosque.

Sarkozy, addressing police officers, vowed to find how tear gas had been fired into the Muslim place of worship, an incident which had helped fuel the disturbances.

Youths hurled rocks and set fire to cars in the northeastern Clichy-sous-Bois suburb of the French capital, where many immigrants and poor families live in high-rise housing estates notorious for youth violence.

French television said six police officers were hurt and 11 people arrested in violence partly fueled by the incident at the mosque. Sarkozy promised an inquiry.

"I am, of course, available to the imam of the Clichy mosque to let him have all the details in order to understand how and why a tear gas bomb was sent into this mosque," he told about 170 police officers at the prefecture.

Good WWII movie by that title. In the end of the movie as the Germans are pulling out, Hitler is on the phone yelling at the officer in charge, Is Paris Burning? The officer refused to carry out the order to burn Paris down. Now, the french have pretty much done a good enough job destroying their country without the help of an enemy. The ENEMY is just like here in the USA, the enemy is WITHIN and we call them socialists democrats.

I wonder if muslim riots meet the definition of a tolerable "nuisance" level of terrorism that John FTA Kerry was willing to accept.

When the Islami-cysts start burning down shops in France because they sell alcohol, that will pretty much seal their fate. Nothing meaner than a mob of hungover Kermits with no place for a morning "dash".

I saw "The Transporter". The French police didn't look that tough to me.

There are none so blind as those who will not see.

From the article:

"Laurent Fabius, a former Socialist prime minister and also a potential presidential candidate in 2007, mocked Sarkozy's frequent visits to areas such as Clichy.

"When he announces that he's going to visit such and such a commune or suburb every week, that's not how we resolve those problems," Fabius told Europe 1 radio.

"We need to act at the same time on prevention, repression, education, housing, jobs ... and not play the cowboy."

Kerry will suggest that the French should immediately draw up plans to withdraw from Paris and surrender it to the rioters....

"But the idea that Islam is a Religion has got to go."

When the West succeeds in filleting the facade of religion from fascism then the real war on terror can finally begin.

If you ask any Muslim if Islam is a religion, they will tell you that it is much more. Islam is a "way of life".

"My brother told me that 1/2 of the births in France are Muslim."

Savage said that last night. He's very concerned about comparative birth rates and sometimes tries to shame young men and women into starting families.

I try think quality is a lot more important than quantity. But the flaw with that mindset is there's no such thing as a 'quality' vote. A bad vote counts as much as a good vote.

"But don't mistake them for being weak on internal policing - they don't mess around."

You sound well-informed. But I can't help it. They're French, after all. And sure enough, they're trying to blame themselves for the riot.

Surely the French can defend their own country, right?

We're not sure--it's never been tried before. ;)

Considering black riots in the USA, I wonder how much Louis Fara-Con had to do with our most recent riot? He's Jewish, right? /sarc.

 And last week they were rioting in Birmingham, UK as I just noted in the last thread. Melanie Phillips goes into the political reasons for the media's silence (reported already on LGF): 'minorities' must be victims and not agressors. But this is really approaching open revolt in Europe, and lunatic violence in India and Indonesia, and lunatic threats from pre-atomic Iran.
