I agree with you there - the problem isn't that teh French police have been passive: they haven't. They have been inept.

Chirac's comments as you say show just how clueless he really is.

As far as the "hard working" stereotype is concerned, its all relative. When you live in New York and Chicago, and see the illegals working everywhere, while the native born underclass sits around the projects screwing and popping out babies by five different fathers, you have a different perspective on the whole situation. Ask a Korean deli owner or Greek diner owner why they hire illegals over certain other people, and you will get a politically incorrect answer that has nothing to do with lower labor costs.

Apples and Oranges

I STRONGLY Urge France to use the entire left wing playbook. gentle police, dialog, peace rallies, then end up putting all immigrants on welfare for life.

It wouldn't have to be that hard. But they would have to be willing to become politically uncorrect and actually profile muslims. Instead of waiting to be attacked and attack back.

Muslim playbook:

uneducated? riot
unemployed? riot
mentioned in the press? threaten lives
angry? set off a bomb
really really angry? set off a suicide blast

Yeah, that's the Muslim playbook alright.

But I'm really confused about what they expect to accomplish. If it's civil war, they will need to supply guns and lots of them while the rioting is still growing.

And I would expect Europe to step in before France surrenders.

Chirac fiddles, and debates, while Paris burns.

Somehow I got a Jimmy Carter flashback when reading that.

Current 'Flash' on Drudge:

Rioting in French suburbs 'well organized'
Thu Nov 03 2005 14:56:34 ET

French Interior Minister Nicolas Sarkozy said Thursday that the riots in several Paris suburbs over the previous night were "not spontaneous" but rather "well organized."

"What we saw in the department of Seine-Saint-Denis overnight was not spontaneous, it was perfectly organized. We are looking into by whom and how," Sarkozy told French news channel i-tele.

The interior minister also said the government would not allow "troublemakers, a bunch of hoodlums, think they can do whatever they want" in the country.

A force of 1,000 police were assigned late Thursday to Seine-Saint-Denis, following the previous night of violence which affected about half of the 40 towns in the department, mostly communities of immigrants from Africa, officials said.

Last night I ate my car for breakfast. Now there's a handy phrase!

Almost as useful as the only phrase I remember from high school French - "la plume de la tante" - the pen of my aunt.
Now THERE'S a phrase that has come in handy over the years!

but where in this report did it say muslims in France were killing chistians

It didn't. But Mohammad said "It is the duty of every Muslim to make war on the non-believer that is near them" or some such, been awhile since I read the Koran.

Certainly this is a common trait of Islam, it infiltrates and when strong enough it purges non-muslims.

and for ignoring the Muslim violence agaist their own Jewish community which escalated to historic levels after the start of the Intifada in 2000.

That's it!!! Send Kerry, he's probably dying to do something relevant. Send Kerry and he can 'nuance' the problem for them.
