The Mohammedans are not using guns yet because that wuld convert this all into a military confrontation which would allow the government cover to send in the army and shoot some folks. It would send most of the rioters home. The guns and RPGs must come out eventually just because AQ or whoever can't completely control the crazies and when the shooting does seriously get underway AQ will use that for all they can, too. That's when we will see the stock Islamoarmory deployed.

There were three or four Molotov cocktails in SF at the latest anti-American protest, but that was last Sunday I believe.

At least one Frenchman has perception

His Hungarian heritage just might have something to do with that.

Alain Rahmouni, a national police spokesman I suspect this person is of Middle Eastern descent as well, despite his french first name.

Let's just say, he isn't exactly a fan of Jerry Lewis.

"The law must have the last word,"

And is that last word "surrender?"

i for one am just dam enjoying it.

Don't enjoy it too much. However much the French deserve what they are getting, a Mohammedan Europe is not a bright future for our own country. Even it the fall of Europe silences our own Left and steels American will to remove the cancer here, there is still the prospect of another large chunk of Western Civilization and, yes Christendom, falling under the blanket of Islam.

Rahmoui appears to be an Algerian name.

a Molotov cocktail in Bakersfield, Ca. This copycat thing could go worldwide.

I wonder how our own "authorities" would react. Alas we don't have the ghetto pools that Europe has. Our Mohammedans tend more to be pretty affluent. I don't think the medical community in my town would burn cars. These Saracens all drive Lexus and Cadillac.

I have been convinced for some years now that Europe is a civilization in disintegration. The violence in France is just a vivid manifestation of that cultural decay.

Constantinople fell to the Muslim Turks 550 years ago because Western Europeans refused to defend Eastern Europeans. Today Western Europeans will not even come to the rescue of themselves.

I do believe that much more violent events lie ahead for France, Germany, and England. European Civilization is coming to an end. It may take another 100 years for the final collapse, but I don't think any Europeans have the will to change course.

Maybe Chirac figures that when all the cars in Europe are gone, the rioting will stop...These muzlims must really hate cars...

I doubt that the riots have much to do with religion or Islam per se. As usual, racial or ethnic issues are at the bottom of it just like in Northern Ireland.

despite massive police deployment and continued calls for calm.

This isn't working because they have it backwards. There should be continued police deployment and massive calls for calm.

Something like 10% of French population are actual believing Christians. Sure, most folks are baptized but they never practise their religion. The same goes for the descendants of Muslim immigrants. These riots are about race and ethnicity, not religion.

How dare these rioters continue to riot when there have been "calls for calm"?

If that is the case then time is approaching for an American Crusade into Europe.
