They are hoping for cold rain.

Apparently the phrase "shoot to kill" means nothing to the Frogs.

Considering the weak response to the looters in NOLA, it doesnt mean a whole lot here either, unfortunately.

Hmmm, I guess they don't count this woman as a fatality:

I don't believe the woman has died, but I do see your point.

Yes, she most certainly should have been included in casualty figures...another innocent maimed in the battle of jihad.

It sure sounded like it to me:

I agree with that. They're going to see how far the "street" can take it without jumping in, because once that happens, it justifies an immediate military response (although I don't know why this situation doesn't already). If these hooligans want to carry the water for awhile, AQ will let them.

What disturbs me most is the thought that French authoritied are scared stiff of responding with force and setting off a massive Arab revolt (what I think we're envisioning coming next). It seems like the Arabs really have their number at this point.

The day after this lady was set on fire the MSM reported that she had survived but had severe burns over 20% of her body. I haven't heard anything else about her since. She may be dead now

Thanks for the update. I hadn't heard about that.

Does it matter?

I think it does because the former East Germany is where the bulk of anti-immigrant violence has been taking place and that's where the bulk of the neo-Nazi movement is. They too have high unemployment with plenty of free time on their hands. If the mohammedans start looking for trouble in the Eastern States of Germany, they'll likely find it.

Good parallel. The leftists could not report on the horrors of their fellow communists behind the Iron Curtain.

A perverted 'band of brothers' thing, IMO.....

I see.

I don't believe she has died, although it is clear she is quite badly wounded.

I'll try and find updated info and will post.

Copycat? I don't think so. How about a "new front"? This is war, not a street crime.
You got that right.

Gorgeous targets. Too bad there's nobody there with the cajones to pull the trigger.

The German political class is as sissy-French as Chirac.
And don't forget the green weenies. They are as eager to turn their rumps up in surrender as their friends the surrender monkeys next door.

Most recent news story I could find, 11/7/05 - "(CBS/AP) A man who was beaten by an attacker while trying to extinguish a trash can fire during riots north of Paris has died of his injuries, becoming the first fatality since urban unrest started 11 days ago, a police official said Monday."



The woman is suffering 3rd degree burns over 20% of her body. No update on her condition, but judging from the info we know, she is extremely critical.

Speaking of media with their heads up their butts, has anyone seen the War Slut in any of this?

Re: 1,408 vehicles overnight Sunday-Monday

Given the 30,000 cars that have been burned this year, they are on track to burn more than a quarter million cars this decade, can't we sell them a Saturn 'Le Boom' sedan with a 5 gallon gas tank in the truck and gas soaked rags in the glove box?

Think of the new sales potential.

We could make the car out of highly combustable materials that burn extra bright for CNN news camera, and even throw in a few piro effects to really hammer your political speech home in the media.

"Le Boom"
"Le Jihadi"
"Le Liberal"
"Le Terrorst"
"Le Socialist"
