In an initial tally early today, the Interior Ministry reported 127 vehicles burned throughout the country

C'mon guys. You can do better that that. Last year, on New Year's Eve, over 300 cars were set on fire in France. On an average day 100 cars are burnt.

At least they have a hobby. And, on the bright side, this should help France meet their Kyoto targets because that's 36,500 fewer cars every year that will not contribute to global warming.

France has been in a shadow since 1939. Too late for the froggies.

All those burning cars should get rid of the shadow.

But they're happy fires. You know, like when sports fans celebrate after their team wins a championship.

"About 25,000 French police were on alert for the holiday. Every New Year's Eve, youths set several hundred cars ablaze as festivities get out of hand...A state of emergency imposed during the rioting is still in effect."

EVERY NEW YEAR'S EVE???? Several hundred cars???

I've never of such a thing before, just really not! How wonderfully tolerant these Euro-socialist eqalitarians are.

Let us hope that the Europeans come to their senses and awaken to reality in 2006.

"Every New Year's Eve, youths set several hundred cars ablaze as festivities get out of hand."

But can the news media explain why the Public was never told about those New Year's Ever French car attacks in all of those previous years?
