I agree. The main problem in France is unemployment. It's already very difficult for a native-french young people with high diploms or a good formation to find a job (the unemployment rate of the youth in France is the highest in Europe). So for an immigrant children, with no diploms, living in a 'no-go zone' and almost unable to speak french without an horrible banlieue's accent and a very limit vocabulary (except for insults), I let you imagine the difficulty. And without a job, no integration possible.
As long the employment market in France will be so rigid, there will be for these youth only two alternatives : criminality and/or islamism.
In many poor places in the Islamic world, the way for a boy to get free meals and a place to sleep is to enter a madrassa (Islamist school), where he is indoctrinated with radical Islam. The Saudis, among otherrs, are spending a lot of money funding the madrassas.
I wonder to what extent the mobs of muslim "youts" are being paid to behave that way, by unfriendly foreign powers?
It may console you a littlebit if I tell you that Germany has exactly the same problems. A mixture between moronic socialism and buerocracy. We all have to do something fast if we want to have a wealthy future and not just a wealthy past.
:-(
Do they really speak French so badly as to be immediately identified by address? Not that the address should ever be grounds for discrimination, but trite use of language is an indicator of squalid intellect and education insufficiency, anywhere in the world.
Because I don't speak any French at all, I'd thought that these folks were all speakers, at native fluency. Also, having lived in the Middle East, I know that Arab Christians (Lebanon, Syria, Israel) and Northern African Arabs (Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria) speak French. Is their French poor also?
