FRENCH FRIED FODDER- Uncontained Riot Recharges Talk Radio's Dead Batteries

If there's one cure for a Supreme talk radio overdose of nomination boredom, it's an uncontrollable riot.

While there may have been some doubt last week, there's simply no question it's now become impossible to ignore. And it's a great way to recharge talk radio's long-drained topical batteries.

--- Why does the American media insist on avoiding the words "muslim" or "Islam" in coverage?

--- How can Europeans, quick to lambaste America over "slow" Katrina response times, explain France's inability to get a handle on the situation? ......

President Bush should send special envoy John F. Kerry to France to straighten out that mess. If anybody understands the French, he's their man. I believe that they polled the French, and he won the election for President of the United States by a decisive margin. He will show Chirac how to talk nicely to those rioters. Obviously they are not doing enough to appease them.

His reprint of Mark Steyn's Chicago Sun-Times piece is the most potent of part of the entry:''French youths fired at police and burned over 300 cars last night as towns around Paris experienced their worst night of violence in a week of urban unrest.''

''French youths,'' huh? You mean Pierre and Jacques and Marcel and Alphonse?

Granted that most of the "youths" are technically citizens of the French Republic, it doesn't take much time in les banlieus of Paris to discover that the rioters do not think of their primary identity as ''French'': They're young men from North Africa growing ever more estranged from the broader community with each passing year and wedded ever more intensely to an assertive Muslim identity more implacable than anything you're likely to find in the Middle East.

After four somnolent years, it turns out finally that there really is an explosive ''Arab street,'' but it's in Clichy-sous-Bois. The notion that Texas neocon arrogance was responsible for frosting up trans-Atlantic relations was always preposterous, even for someone as complacent and blinkered as John Kerry.

If you had millions of seething unassimilated Muslim youths in lawless suburbs ringing every major city, would you be so eager to send your troops into an Arab country fighting alongside the Americans?

Great questions from Brian Maloney. . .

(I do not use a battery-operated radio however; so my reception has been great).

Think the challenge for a real news; as per Brian's challenges above - is one that must be redirected back to the MSM. . .they are reporting this story for sure at too low a level.

No, I am not exaggerating. Click the pic, go to "last," and read backwards.
If you are not informed about this stuff, you will be made sick. If you are informed, you will be made mad, all over again.

Is this guy on crack?

Yes he is.

Talk radio, doing the job the Enemedia will not do.
