Nope.

They complain about this in the WEST? Shi-fire the men don't even get a look from females until they are middle aged in the ME. That's why they fight to the death. The old dudes get a trophy wife for waiting. The young dudes fight. And they bitch about treatment here? Unreal.

"When you watch your brothers - five or six of them - trying to get a job and getting nowhere, you wonder what the point is. "Everyone's on the dole here, and nobody sees any way of getting out."

Why don't you ask your parents why they had such a huge number of children (one assumes there were a bunch of sisters around too), when they couldn't provide a decent future for a single one of them?

Clearly they need to raise taxes.

I would have liked to know more about these "young people." For instance, have they stayed in school and become educated? Have they developed skills that are marketable? Have they made themselves the best that they can be? Or are they waiting for some one to "give" them a top job. I don't care what your race is if you have made yourself valuable to society, society will value you.

I appreciate the quote, but since it's from a Muslim, I have to think that it's simply another complaint made simply to complain and excuse violence. The actions of their faithful for the past few decades have earned this doubt.

Yes - raising taxes is the only way they're going to be able to keep these fine young people on the dole. It's the only decent thing to do.

Exactly.
There aren't very many jobs that I'm aware of, needing someone who's only skill is that he has totally memorized the Koran from cover to cover.

This is France we're talking about, not a free market liberal economy.

Resentment against the police, as representatives of the French state, still runs high.

The same state that provides their livelihood through welfare.

They can go back to scratch dirt in Algeria or Morocco and learn what living in a real police state is like...pansies.

"The words chosen by Sarkozy," he said, "show he's the one who's not civilised," he said.

So a politician calls you uncivilized and you retaliate by proving him right?

What's the French word for dumba$$?

LOL! This may be the reason that no one want employ these "young people." Many employers here hire temps nowadays just to see what the temp's work ethic is. It makes sense to me. It is a lot harder to fire employees who do not work than it used to be.

Why can't folks just be honest these days ?

Tell them we frankly don't care if you are upset angry despondent or anything else just live your lives within the law or we'll throw you into the brig, the hole, or if those are full right back into the power substation.

I think this reporter wasted a lot of his time.

Never mind French and English. These clowns come from a planet where commonly known words, familiar with most of us, like discipline, responsibility, education and initiative have the opposite meaning that they do in our universe.

They have been kept as pets for generations. Why expect change now? What's different?

Buy Heckler and Kock or Smith and Wesson to protect yourself and your families.
