This is sounding more and more like the "Great Fear" of 1789 that brought down Louis XVI! I like it!

The unrest cast a cloud over the end of Ramadan, the Muslim holy month. This sentence was just tossed in there without explanation. How did the violence cast a cloud over Ramadan? It's a "holy" month during with one gains extra rewards if one dies for allah. Only could hanging in the air is over France...not Ramadan.

AULNAY-SOUS-BOIS, France -- A week of riots in poor neighborhoods outside Paris gained dangerous new momentum Thursday, with youths shooting at police and firefighters and attacking trains and symbols of the French state.

Wow, you have to hand it to these Islamics. I am impressed with their marketing campaign. Ramadan, virgins, more goodies from Alla...maybe someone should set up a used car dealership for Islamic radicals...hmmm.

Much as I hate to say it, I'm praying for France. If these people are allowed to set up semi-autonomous enclaves in France they will export terror all over Europe. I hope the French come to their senses and take the fight to the Islamofacists in their country.

There has been specific area "civil wars" -- called "no go" areas by the police, fire, and ambulance services in nearly every EU city.
I've been thinking there is a growing potential for a hot - wide -- civil war in Europe natives VS. muslim immigrants.
Maybe the time for Europe to pay the piper has come?

Hmm.
We're fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan.
They are fighting Islamofascists in their own homeland.
Waiting for Chirac to again explain the wisdom in his choice.

We have better riots here in the U.S.

France is now observing what happens when a country allows the influx of muslims. Look out U.S.
