Vichy-jihadists. What an abominable combination of fiendish barbarians.

France has one of the biggest Jewish communities in the world, estimated at up to 600,000 people.

They neglect to mention that France has one of the biggest Muslim communities in the non-muslim world, estimated at up to 6,000,000 people. This is where most of the hate and violence is coming from.

There are also plenty of non-Muslim anti-Semites in Europe.

Look at eastern Germany. Are you going to argue that the racist neo-Nazis there are Muslims?

BTW, agree that this could have been done by Muslims; just pointing out that there was anti-Semitism in Europe long before this recent increase in Muslim immigration to the European subcontinent--and that this anti-Semitism still exists.

I'm shocked, shocked, I tell you.

France has become just so much trash.

Anyone want to bet that "French youths" were behind this?

French crime = youths = Muslims.

"French crime = youths = Muslims."

Good point.

Here is some data on France's Muslim population.

FRANCE

Total population: 62.3 million

Muslim population: Five to six million (8-9.6%)

Background: The French Muslim population is the largest in western Europe. About 70% have their heritage in former north African colonies of Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia. France favours integration and many Muslims are citizens. Nevertheless, the growth of the community has challenged the French ideal of strict separation of religion and public life. There has been criticism that Muslims face high unemployment and often live in poor suburbs. A ban on religious symbols in public schools provoked a major national row as it was widely regarded as being a ban on the Islamic headscarf. Late 2005 saw widespread and prolonged rioting among mainly immigrant communities across France.

Sources: Total population - National Institute for Statistics and Economic Studies, 2004 figures; Muslim population - French government estimate.

They pick the tombstones because tombstones don't fight back.

Fast track to Europe's future.

"They pick the tombstones because tombstones don't fight back."

Plus these cowards commit their hate crimes in the dead of night.

The recent French riots which were mostly Muslims was reciprocity for Chirac not assisting in overthrowing Saddam, since he had too many sweet oil deals with the ex-Iraqi tyrant.

I do not think that it will take that long.

It's too late. Judeo-Christian values are already prevalent and progress is the name of the game. If you want to live like cavemen, Nazis or as things were 1,400 years ago, that is your right, but the rest of us choose, get it? CHOOSE not to and you don't have the power now and NEVER WILL have the power to force us otherwise. So just keep up your pathetic little acts of hooliganism -- all it will get you is in jail and ultimately -- in Hades for eternity. Good day.

[Verdelet]

what progress do you mean?
