Somebody should write a conspiracy theory book under the pen-name "Terry Mason" about how the French actually instigated the riots so they would have an excuse to hammer their minority (note the lack of plural).

The Mujahedeen (who else wears balaclava's while committing terrorist acts?) now know that the French police are powerless against them.
They should have crushed this uprising on the first day. It's too late now, it will only grow into a better organized and deadly "insurgency" of Islamic 'freedom-fighters'. (They coined the names, now let them live with them) Iran and al queda will keep them supplied. France won't "hammer" their Islamic minority, they will be defeated by them. They've already begun destroying all the businesses, the infrastructure, schools, libraries, police stations. Economic collapse has already begun in an already tetering economy and will keep spreading along with the "insurgency". (let's see how France likes that word)
