'Why did they set my car on fire, why mine?' asks one young man as he watches it go up in flames. He knows the perpetrators, he says. They're neighbours of his, but he refuses to name them.

That really puts it all into perspective, there. If I caught my neighbors setting my car on fire, getting reported to the police would be the least of their worries.

The French need to either cave in and give the young punks what ever they want (which would solve the problem for about a month) or radically up the response. I'd suggest telling the police that anyone seen flipping a car, holding a weapon or setting a fire is to be shot. The body count would be huge and the civil war would get much worse before enough of the radicals died and the message was delivered. Had they taken a much tougher stand 10 days ago this could have been prevented. Now, many must die. It is the Islamic way.

150 years ago, if you killed a man's horse or stole it, they would hang you the next day. This problem we see in France is spreading and will only get worse.

"On Wednesday night, a disabled woman in Sevran barely escaped death in a burning bus.

Youths barricaded the road with burning tyres and threw fuel into the bus. All the other passengers fled, but the 56-year-old, unable to move, was sprayed with petrol and then a burning rag was thrown inside.

The woman survived the attack with second and third-degree burns on one-fifth of her body, after the bus driver managed to pull her to safety...."

Respect to the bus driver. But otherwise does it get any more degraded or evil than this?

If it were really Baghdad each night large numbers of the Muslims youths would be turned into corpses. Be careful what you wise for Islamists. As Iraq is teaching you, the West capability of violence so out weight even your wildest fantasies. Be careful what you wish for Muslims.

France deserves this...they earned it, so I will enjoy this spectacle as long as it lasts.
