"Many people who watch their cars, shops and schools go up in flames, however, are not buying it. They blame unemployment, racial prejudice and widespread youth boredom for the outbursts."

France is lost....completely...

"and against the mosques"

Bull$hit. THey are on every frickin street corner in France. The french government has even let them turn churches into mosques and even provides public funding for them. Completely going against the socalism concept of total seperation of church and state. As long as it involves Islam, the french are always in the bent over position.

We tell them that they're house is on fire, and they say what fire. How much farther can they stick they're head up they're a$$es?

[paul51]

They're bored. That's the reason they burn down buildings and ignite cars. I see.

They have been for decades. Socialism as sucked any national identity or pride in their country out of the people. Nobody goes to church. The country is run by a never ending series of clownish leftist elitists who have cultivated a culture of america bashing for political gain.
They've allowed their country to be over run by 3rd world muslims who refuse to assimilate, and they bow down to their every demand. None of the ethnic french are having children.
They have no real military. They depend on the UN for them to be able to weld power on the world stage. Their economy is dying.

France is completely lost and there is no way to regain it. THey are past the point of no return. It will be an islamic country within 30 years.

Note to self: When bored, initiate Islamic uprising...

This is all a negotiating tactic the French are using to help us make sure Iran doesn't develop nukes. Sarcasm

[Dark Skies]

As amazing as it seems to Americans, France may be the first to awaken in this battle (not Chirac or de Villepin...but that minority that maintains the drops of blood holding French courage). Just because the leaders are cowards is no reason to forget the strength of Enguerrand de Coucy and men like him.

Against the scourge of Islam...I say "vive le France."

The first place I would look is the French Communist Party.

or tell neighbors to take tire irons out of cars and use them. Are they all waiting for some else to do it for them?

"Many people who watch their cars, shops and schools go up in flames, however, are not buying it. They blame unemployment, racial prejudice and widespread youth boredom for the outbursts."

So how come all the non-mulsim immigrants aren't involved too? Islam is a failed culture - when they don't get their, they resort to violence against innocents.

I'm at a loss as to how this could possibly benefit drug traffickers. Seriously. If somebody can figure that angle I'd be very interested in hearing about it. I would, of course, use the information for educational purposes only.

[Tempest]

Yeah boredom and unemployment.... that's the root cause...

And right now the people in those district are trying to impress potential investors with their resume????

Copuout or denial, that's about sums up this article.

[Fred Nerks]

Now that the clerics have schooled the 'beur yoots' in vandalism and destruction, all the while the government does nothing, and the french stand by watching and wringing their hands in abject cowardice, just wait until islam brings in the professionals; the molotov cocktails will look like little birthday candles in comparison.

Islamofascists will go as far as france lets them, and then they will fan out across europe. The excuses will need to become more creative, but lie to us the socialists certainly will. It's their ideology europe has to thank for this. Marxism.

The MSM sure does like to base stories on and take quotes from 19 and 20 year olds. The only place in the world wisdom is supposed to reside are moose-limb kids in froggieville.
