Thanks. (I think) This angers me so. It's so very unjust.

Or Aviv Synagogue

"Or Aviv." "Light of Spring." Tragic that the "light" this spring came from an arson fire.

But frustration is often deepest among French-born children of Arab immigrants who have few ties to North Africa but feel rejected by French society.

Well, are they attempting to embrace "French society?" And on whose terms?

Assimilation has proved more difficult, however, for the city's Muslim immigrants, among them poor rural workers who lack the skills to break out of the city's grim suburbs.

Wow. Couldn’t have seen this coming. Who’d have thought that skills like straw-carpentry, camel herding, or dung masonry wouldn’t translate well in the french suburbs.

Well, idiots, you’ve got what you asked for. The muslim “holy war” will be in your back yard before you know it. I’m sure you’ll surrender in time though…

Can anybody name a country with Muslims that isn't on the verge of exploding?

[Map Kernow]

Pfft! What's it going to take for it to convert into "anti-Semitic violence" then, the annihilation of Israel????

[MissAmericanPie]

The only one that comes to mind is Turkey, but all religions there know not to step out of line, secular Turks are fierce.

Uh .... the US of A?

They should be "encouraged" to return to Algeria.

"The Or Aviv Synagogue, with its library, prayer hall and classrooms, was a modest, prefabricated compound."

Compound? Did someone say compound? Documentary Lady will be shocked.

Oh yeah, and it's not good to burn down synagogues (or take priests hostage in Christian churces) either.

"I never heard a bad word against Jews here," he said. "It's very painful. It's so hard to understand."

Not hard to understand at all. Not only has France opened its borders to islamic thugs, the cheese-eating surrender monkeys have embraced anti-semitism for years. What's so hard to understand?

Bangladesh. An ex-geography professor of mine is from there. He's a Muslim, but he specifically asked the class not to compare his people with Arab Muslims. He called them crazy and violent. He's also a great guy who had the whole class over for dinner at the end of the term.

muslims bring peace and happiness wherever they go.

True, there are several million in the U.S., but who are they? A good chunk of them are ex-cons who learned about the “religion of peace” while in the slam. Of the rest, how many are like our good friend Sami al-arian from the University of Southern Florida or Louis Farrakahn or Elija Muhamed? How many danced on their rooftops in Jersey City as the airliners slammed into the World Trade Center?

Given, we aren’t exactly on the precipice of disaster, but that’s because we still have relatively few. Let’s not make the mistake that the idiots in europe did and try to mitigate the damage we’ve already done by passing out get in free cards to everyone with a dusky hue and a sneer on their face.

It's good to know somebody is speaking out against them.

You do mean so far, right?

BTW, look at the news. They're in the streets here right now.
