and no Plan B was apparent.

No 'plan B'? I bet many will differ with that statement...

When are the French police going to start with shoot to kill orders? I hope they dont destroy Monmarte. That is such a beautiful place in the south of Paris.

Hmmm. Lets see.

Two youths electrocute themselves by going into a location that is off limits because of the safety hazard and it is our (the French) fault?

Soon, dozens of angry young men ....

Angry my eye. They're vicious, idle and amoral. Anger has nothing to do with it.

Get back to the 'thesis' on why they rioted.

This is not "Rodney King". The police did not beat the youths. They did not throw them onto the transformer.

The kids electrocuted themselves.

Yet somehow they view this as a cause to riot.

Iran will have the a-bomb shortly, and Paris will be on the hit list.

Others cried "jihad."

Impossible. The AP in my paper never mentioned Islam in connection with the insurrection and conflagration in France.

Once mob mentality is in play, it's much tougher to bring any semblance of reason or calm to the frey.

You'd have to have a plan A before you move to B...at least in English...maybe the French alphabet is different.

Real classy.

"It was neither, in fact, and Paris—the capital known to tourists—was not burning. But by using cell-phone text messages to coordinate their incendiary flash-mobs, rioters in the city's suburbs managed to burn thousands of cars, as well as buses, warehouses and stores."

Have they not read "How to Win Friends and Influence People?

The police are spread to thin and have asked for the French Army to be sent to help.

Unless this is stopped soon, I think that it will only escalate. And giving in to whatever "demands" this scum makes, will embolden them.

It might make more sense if they burned a power plant mightn't it? How do the poor get cell phones? Are they issued in France like food stamps.

I always have assumed that their dream is to have the Islamic crescent flying at the top of the Eiffel tower and add minarets to Notre Dame
