you will love this spin then:

http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/common/story_page/0,5744,17134239%255E601,00.html

The article ends by saying:

"France since 1905 has had an official separation between church and state.

The Interior Minister wants the system reformed to allow the state to fund mosques and Muslim associations of moderate religious and political views"

France's solution seems to be to allow the Muslims to have STATE FUNDED MADRASSA'S. France is Lost!!

Many of the residents of the Paris suburbs are Muslims outraged by Sunday night's tear-gas attack on a mosque at the heart of the unrest. The week-long wave of violence began after two teenage boys were electrocuted after seeking refuge in a substation at Clichy-sous-bois, believing they were being chased by police.

I've just hit on the difference between France and America. There, teenage boys are electrocuted when seeking refuge at a substation, and the community riots.

In America, the boys' families would probably sue the county, the electric company, and the police, settle a wrongful death suit out of court with enough money to get them out of the ghetto. After all, the substation should have been adequately protected to prevent accidental electrocution, signs should have been posted in every language and with pictures, etc. (/sarcasm)
