Unrest spreads to nine French towns

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.
Police in riot gear fired rubber bullets late Tuesday at advancing
gangs of youths in Aulnay-sous-Bois -- one of the worst-hit suburbs --
where 15 cars were burned,

Youths lobbed Molotov cocktails at an annex to the town hall and threw
stones at the firehouse.

Four people were arrested for throwing stones at police in nearby Bondy
where 14 cars were burned, the prefecture said. A fire engulfed a
carpet store, but it was not immediately clear whether the blaze was linked
to the suburban unrest.
Officials gave an initial count of 69 vehicles torched in nine suburbs
across the Seine-Saint-Denis region that arcs Paris on the north and
northeast.
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.
No trouble was immediately reported in Clichy-sous-Bois, where rioting
began Thursday following the accidental deaths of two teenagers hiding
to escape police in a power substation.
They were electrocuted while trying to hide from the police. A third
was injured. Officials have said police were not pursuing the boys, aged
15 and 17.
Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin met Tuesday with the parents of
the three families, promising a full investigation of the deaths and
insisting on "the need to restore calm," the prime minister's office said.
Interior Minister Nicolas Sarkozy -- blamed by many for fanning the
violence with tough talk and harsh tactics -- met Tuesday night in Paris
with youths and officials from Clichy-sous-Bois in a bid to cap days of
rioting. But the unrest spread even as they met. Sarkozy recently
referred to the troublemakers as "scum" and "riffraff."
An Associated Press Television news team witnessed confrontations
between about 20 police and 40 youths in Aulnay-sous-Bois with police firing
tear gas and rubber bullets.
Officials said that "small, very mobile gangs" were harassing police
and setting fires to garbage cans and vehicles throughout the region.
France-Info radio said some 150 blazes were reported in garbage bins,
cars and buildings across Seine-Saint-Denis. The unrest highlighted the
division between France's big cities and their poor satellites.
Tension had mounted throughout Tuesday after young men torched cars,
garbage bins and even a primary school 24 hours earlier. Scores of cars
were reported burned Monday night in Clichy-sous-Bois and 13 people were
jailed.
Youths set two rooms of a primary school in Sevran on fire Monday along
with several cars, Mayor Stephane Gatignon said in a statement.

Al-Jazeera and Al Qaeda
By Cliff Kincaid | November 2, 2005
Al-Jazeera has responded by reiterating its support for Allouni and "his
professional integrity and courage as a journalist," according to the
Islamic Republic News Agency.
The Washington Post on September 11, in a page 16 story, noted that
a Spanish court had sentenced 18 people to prison on charges of
cooperating with Al Qaeda and facilitating the 9/11 terrorist attacks on
America. The story also noted that "Tayssir Alouni, a journalist with
the Arabic-language television network al-Jazeera, was sentenced to
seven years in prison. Prosecutors used an interview that Alouni
conducted in 2001 with Osama bin Laden as evidence that he had a
link to al Qaeda."
The evidence of his cooperation with Al Qaeda was that he had
interviewed bin Laden? In fact, he was accused and found guilty of
carrying money for Al Qaeda, and was a member of that
Spanish-based Al Qaeda cell. Reports indicate that he took over
$4,000 to terrorists in Afghanistan on two occasions. Some of the
money went to Mohammed Bahaiah, one of Osama bin Laden's closest
aides, who is still at large.
The BBC noted that "Until his arrest in 2003, he was among
al-Jazeera's most prominent and popular correspondents, fronting the
network's coverage of the conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq." Alouni is
a Syrian with Spanish citizenship.
Newsweek reported that internal Spanish police documents showed
that Alouni had been under scrutiny since at least early 2000, when
phone wiretaps revealed he was in "frequent and continuous" contact
with Imad Eddin Barakat Yarkas, the suspected leader of Al Qaeda's
Spanish cell. He was sentenced to 27 years in prison. The magazine
said, "Before moving from Granada to Afghanistan in January 2000 to
open up the Al-Jazeera bureau, Alouni called Yarkas to let him know
he was leaving." The report said that "It sounded like he was
informing this fact to a superior in a hierarchy."
However, Al-Jazeera has responded by reiterating its support for
Allouni and "his professional integrity and courage as a journalist,"
according to the Islamic Republic News Agency.
Washington Post media reporter, Howard Kurtz, playing catch-up with
USA Today over its breaking of the story about ex-Marine Josh
Rushing joining Al-Jazeera, has done a story highlighting the fact that
BBC interviewer David Frost is signing on to the Arab propaganda
outlet. Frost has disgraced himself with this shameful decision.
In an understatement, Kurtz noted, "Al Jazeera's reputation wasn't
helped when a Spanish court last month sentenced former
correspondent Taysir Alouni to seven years in prison on charges of
collaborating with al-Qaida."
That's bad enough. But USA Today, Kurtz and many others have
ignored the controversy over Al-Jazeera's first managing director, who
was let go when it was exposed that he was closely tied to the
Saddam Hussein regime and was in fact taking "directives" from
Saddam's evil son Uday. You can read all about this in our AIM Report.
