It's the 5% rule.
Before a minority hits 5% they are "exotic". Once they hit 5% they are "those people".
Now, blacks in France are becoming "those people" instead of Josephine Baker, Nina Simone exotic.
everyone in the photos are from north africa except one he looks senegalese.

France must be brought before the UN and the International Criminal Court.
The French government killing innocent minority Muslim youth must be against international law.

Well, not quite a thousand years. But you are right that the Romans had to deal with invaders for a long time before their empire was established. Caesar's conquest of Gaul was the final push-back of that ancient threat. And by that time they were in contact with the Germans. And of course, "Rome" never fell until 1453. Most people have never read that part of Gibbon. I understand that Napoleon intended to re-take Constantinople and makes it the capital of an empire that reached to India. Good thing he never had the naval power.
That's actually kind of a funny pun, since "beur" is French slang for a Muslim youth.
Looks like they have learned about co-opting the pejorative from Western leftists.

I like the way you think brother
I don't know, it seems pretty nasty to me, it implies they are blacks. That's going to be the impression people get when you say African.
Where's Jessie Jackson?
Here's an interesting article by Theodore Dalrymple from 2002 discussing the problems engendered by the North African slums in the Parisian suburbs.

Nothing about Muslims there. Move on, nothing to see here...
Those idiots will ignore Islam until the last European is beheaded.
That is just wrong!
They're still using the single shot, instead of the endless-chain auto loader model!
And here I thought the Muzzies were backward!
Moslems? Africans? Moors? It's really Third World scum no matter how you cut it. Why did (does) France let them in???

"I would be happy if they called then North Africans."
I would be happy if you called them turds.
Actually, that was only the intitial movements by the Germanic peoples. The serious invasions came less that a century later, when the tribes arrived that every one else was running from.
The Huns and their allied tribes, such as the Goths, were barbarians by any measure. So were the Vandals, the Saxons, the Angles and quite a few other tribes.
