PARIS (Reuters) - Gangs of youths torched more than 1,000 vehicles overnight in the tenth straight night of violence in Paris's poor suburbs, despite the deployment of thousands of extra police.

In the past few days the rioting has been spreading to other French towns. On Saturday night, cars were burned out for the first time in central Paris, in the historic third district. And in the normally quiet Normandy town of Evreux, a shopping mall, 50 vehicles, a post office and two schools were gutted.

The violence began after the deaths of two men apparently fleeing police, and as the expression of pent up anger by young men, many Muslims of North and black African origin, at police treatment, racism, unemployment and their marginal place in French society.

Authorities have increasingly blamed the rolling nightly riots on organized crime gangs. But despite consultations with community leaders, young people and local officials, Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin has failed to offer a clear path out of the crisis.

Muslims no longer fear the French.

NO ONE FEARS THE FRENCH!!!!!

Amazing, out of the one place that did more than any other nation to save Saddam. I guess the Balkans just got enlarged.

This is why we need liberals in charge- there just aren't any quality riots going on in this country.

Ah yes, the good ole days of Mayor Dinkins and the Crown Heights Riots......

Jihad!



The picture below is from a mosque in Pakistan:

Eurabia is the first front in the Jihad for the Global Caliphate!
France is always among the first to fall.

Zoot alors!

Where is Sadddam? Where is Osama? Where is Kofi? Where is Muammar when the French really need them?

All this appeasement for rien?

I was about to make that point. From now on, every time a liberal complains about Iraq and that we are just creating new enemies, we can point to France and the result of 'being sensitive' to these animals.

“There were no reports of serious injury.”

Does ANYBODY believe this?!

despite the deployment of thousands of extra police

Were they armed? Did they have orders to shoot?

Well I would use the word uncivilized rather than "animals" for these people, however, I tend to look at it like this. The Frenche had NO problem protecting the butcher of Baghdad, so maybe the Frenche need a dose of what they considered common and fine for the people of Iraq.

Were they armed?"

==================================

They were all armed with white flags which they a waving vigorously, but they don't seem to be working.

Don't forget that France harbored the nucleus of the genesis of the current leadership of Iran too.

What a country!

French culture indeed. Now is the time to kick them off the security council of the UN, before sending the UN to Zimbabwe.

Must be a misprint. Everybody knows racism and unemployment don't exist in socialist societies.

There was reports of looting in some Commercial centers a few days back.
I am sending you a french website that is not afraid of telling things as they are.

If you press on the British flag you will get an english version. Sometimes the translation is poor but worth a look.

Anyone else bored to death over the lame B/S being circulated about those two muslim idiots who ran from the police (BTW ... the police weren't chasing them) and fried themselves, as the cause for this "rioting"?

This muslim onslaught (though not nearly as large as at the present) has been going on for quite some time.

"In the no-go suburbs, even before these current riots, 9,000 police cars had been stoned by ''French youths'' since the beginning of the year; some three dozen cars are set alight even on a quiet night. "

What a complete and total mess. I shudder at the thought had JFKerry deceived enough voters to be President.

[G.Mason]

Screw you and the (spit ... spit) French!

Police arrested 193 people. The spokesman said the rioters were avoiding direct clashes with police. "There is some harassment of police, but not direct confrontation," he said.

The big question is "WHY the police are not harassing the rioters?"

La 5ième République, mort à cause de la politique Arabe de France?

Quel fromage!
