Now is the time to stop the IslamoPukes!

I wonder if the French will consider a "land for peace deal' - maybe the West Bank of the Seine?

Rioters to Chirac: "We will take the qualities you possess and combine it with our own. You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile."

Chirac to Rioters: "yes massa"

[Antonello]

It's a quagmire! France has no exit strategy! They should pull out of Paris now!

[mortal19440]

Their White Flag factory must have burned down!

Interesting that the word Muslim appears several times at the top of the article, and that they say it is frightening because some of the rioters are shouting "Baghdad" and "Jihad."

Of course they go on to portray the Muslims as victims of discrimination and whatnot, but this article, unlike any others I have seen, makes it clear what the real causes are.

Gee, when NOLA residents looted businesses and fired on resuce officials, we were told that we just needed to understand their frustration, fire FEMA Dir. Brown and impeach President George W. Bush.

I'd like to be one of the first to tell the French to employ the same philosophy, understand the plight of IslamoFasists, fire Min. deVillipin and impeach Chirac!

[Danae]

Quagmire ping

France is imploding....and it is good

[RobFromGa]

the European social model is a failure, tolerance of the intolerant is insane, and appeasement never works.

France will react, or fall to the Muslims.

France's welfare state brought on much of this mess. It's where the braindead welfare state meets the brainwashed radical Muslims.

Not all Muslims are terrorists. But in today's world all terrorists are Muslim. At least all modern day terrorists.

What the MSM doesn't 'get' is that the people feel there's a connection between the beliefs of Muslims and the violence they inflict on the rest of us. And there needs to be an open discussion about it.

I'm with the people who don't like it when there's prejudice against people because of their faith.

I don't like it when CBS looks down on Christians, or when Nazis look down on Jews or when all Muslims are painted with one brush.

But the truth is that something in the Muslim faith is encouraging this type of antisocial behavior and we need to discuss it openly. There's a place between blind hate and total silly acceptance of differences. And that place needs to be found.

USA Today not bashing the USA...today? Have I woken up in an alternate reality?

[massgopguy]

I saw a chattering skull on one of the cable news networks last night praising Chirac's "slow response".

[Uncle Miltie]

Chirac needs to ask what he's done to anger these people and apologize!

[sarasota]

"Chattering skull". Good one!

So surprising after appeasement worked so well against Hitler that it didn't work against the Mooselimbs?? Grow a pair Frogs and load your guns.
