BOBIGNY, France (Reuters) -- French Interior Minister Nicolas Sarkozy defended his tough crime policies on Monday after a fourth night of riots in a Paris suburb in which tear gas was fired into a mosque.

Sarkozy, addressing police officers, vowed to find how tear gas had been fired into the Muslim place of worship, an incident which had helped fuel the disturbances.

Youths hurled rocks and set fire to cars in the northeastern Clichy-sous-Bois suburb of the French capital, where many immigrants and poor families live in high-rise housing estates notorious for youth violence.

French television said six police officers were hurt and 11 people arrested in violence partly fueled by the incident at the mosque. Sarkozy promised an inquiry.

"I am, of course, available to the imam of the Clichy mosque to let him have all the details in order to understand how and why a tear gas bomb was sent into this mosque," he told about 170 police officers at the prefecture.

Good point. But of course, Al Qaida can easilly look like they're from Mexico. It's too easy for them to blend in.

Funny, the French are doing the same thing they slammed Israel for doing 5 years ago. Using chemical weapons and rubber bullets to quell riots by Mooselimbs. Israel was banned from weapons shows in Europe for selling these items...

Ironic too. Wonder where they buy them now?

IF we had Muslim riots in America it would be WORLD front page news! But here if the police can't contain it the citizen soldier CAN DO.

RELATED FR THREAD:Sixth night of riots in Paris

UPDATED Article on CNN this morning...

Unrest spreads to nine French towns

CNN.com - POSTED: Wednesday, November 2, 2005; Posted: 2:07 a.m. EST (07:07 GMT)

EXCERPT:
PARIS, France (AP) -- Unrest spread across troubled suburbs around Paris in a sixth night of violence as police clashed with angry youths and scores of vehicles were torched in at least nine towns, local officials said.
(...)The area, home mainly to families of immigrant origin, often from Muslim North Africa, is marked by soaring unemployment and delinquency. Anger and despair thrive in the tall cinder-block towers and long "bars" that typically make up housing projects in France.

Your SO right, Farlander. Infact its because of those harsh anti-terror laws that the "secret" multinational alliance task force called "Alliance Base" is based out of France. France was the only country after 9/11 that such a facility could be put in place because of their anti-terror laws.

The French have housed the purveyors and implementors of most of the evil ideologies of the 20th Century and beyond, during important formative periods.

Examples: Marx, Engels, and many other Communists, to include many of Mao's cohorts, Ho Chi­ Minh of Vietnam, and Pol Pot of Cambodia.

On the Islamonazi front, the Ayatollah Khomeni is formost among the radical Islamists who spent significant time in France.

While I hate to see it happen to anyone, if it has to happen to someone, it's more than France's turn to feel some pain for the evil they have helped incubate.



Wow! The french are so much more sophisticated! and
Moraly Superior than We Barbaric Americans...Once again
We will be called on to bail out these "Surrender-Monkeys"
How many American Lives will John "F-in" kerry donate to His beloved France?..and Then have them Spit on us as we leave?....Now thats a war a Democrat can Support!.!!!

Yes, I'm familiar with Sarkozy. I was just wondering how riots can be allowed to continue for four days (now six). Dinkins and Sarkozy must go to the same therapist.

Sarkozy is under attack by the left for inflaming the riots by his hardline tactics and language. I don't think he has a free hand here.

Have you caught this -- riots in Denmark too.

Michel Thooris from Action Police CFTC, said. 'My colleagues neither have the equipment nor the practical nor theoretical training for street fighting.'

I can't tell if this is something from 1940 or 2005.

Please excuse my Schadenfreude, but this is sweet after the way France has looked down its nose at racial strife in the USA.
