The reason for this isn't because the muslims have been segregated by others. It's because they refuse to enter mainstream society, and they've brought their hell-hole lives to France. Because French society gives them a sustanance living without having to integrate into, and become a vibrant part of French society, you've now got an underclass that's a breeding ground for violence.

Sound familiar?

Rioting by youths in a Paris suburb has highlighted the discontent among sections of France's immigrant population.

Has the State Department urged restraint on the part of the French and immediate withdrawal from occupied territories?

Where is UN to put an end to these recent French atrocities and the humiliation they inflict on the Muslims every day?

Ghettos shackle French Muslims -

- With good reason.

Sheesh, the BBC finds no length too far to go to support radical Muslims, even in their criminal activities.

Those are not ghettos, they are 'suburbs'...Please do not confuse the two. As usual, the BBC shows their utter lack of understanding about the nature of the Islamofascist threat facing France. Welfare, segragation, and rascist French have provided the fuel for the rise of radical islam in disaffected french muslim youth.

HANDS UP! Does anyone one with an IQ above their waist size give a crap about Muslim discontent? I don't. And my waist is at least half my IQ.

Of course. (as in: *their* course) the BBC
takes the side of, and lies for, the
rioter, the terrorist, and the anti-west
murderer.

These aren't riots..they are an insurrection.
Insurrectionists should be shot on sight.
France's very existance is on the line.

The great majority of Muslims resent the extremists in their midst

Then why don't they get rid of the extremists in their midst?

Were they ghettos before the current tenants moved in?

But as Islam expert Olivier Roy notes, bombers should not be seen as the vanguard of the Muslim people. Jihadis everywhere, he says, are rebelling both against the West and their own community.

True, the Muslims are bombing and attacking in counties worldwide.

The great majority of Muslims resent the extremists in their midst - although many in France do not recognise this.

Yazid Sabeg, an industrialist and writer, says the French have "a real problem" with both Arabs and Islam and equate both with extremism.

Any Muslim disagreement with the extremist and bombers is a well kept secret as virtually no Muslims are speaking out against the violence.

"We were all poor, but there were French people, East Europeans, as well as blacks and Arabs . . ."

When did "black" become a nationality??? What an idiot!

Separatism, the French are told, is a plague afflicting the Anglo-Saxon multicultural model.

The average French person believes that racism, poverty, violence, etc. does not happen in France. It's incredible when you talk to one of them. They exclaim loudly about all those problems in America and insist that there is none of that in France. Further proof of the power of propaganda I guess.

Time for the French to get ready to "sneeze into the sack" again.
