PARIS (AP) It was bad enough when France learned that the minute of silence for victims of the nation's deadliest terror attacks in decades was not respected by all students. Some children contested it, others walked out. But when an 8-year old Muslim boy proclaimed, "I am with the terrorists," the alarm bells sounded at full strength.
The chilling call from a child so young brought into stark relief the divide between mainstream France and a portion of the Muslim population, often from neglected neighborhoods. But the official reaction hauling the boy into the police station for questioning also triggered debate, with many seeing it as a sign of mounting hysteria.
The fierce official backlash against expressions of Muslim extremism in the wake of this month's Paris terror attacks stems in part from the sheer numbers of homegrown jihadis. More French have embraced jihad in Syria and Iraq than in any other European country over 1,000. Dozens of these fighters have returned, feeding fears they could turn their battle skills on France. In early January, those fears were realized, as three Frenchmen with links to Islamic extremists went on their murderous rampage, killing journalists at the satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo, a policewoman, a policeman and shoppers at a kosher grocery store.
The French government is desperate to prevent more bloodshed. This week, it started a "stop jihad" website that mimics the media tactics of the Islamic State group luring youth to the battlefront while, crucially, adding a dose of real-life warnings about what the siren calls from Syria can mean. They range from being killed far from home to having a role in massacres of children.

We do, too. See parts of Minnesota, Maine, and NJ, where they have been imported en masse.

France opened the door and invited them in with open arms! So now they have problems?
History has several examples of the result of unrestricted immigration. If too many people are allowed into a nation and their loyalties are not to their new nation the nation falls.
This happened to the American Indians. This happened to Mexico with TX. It happened in Europe after Rome fell and the muslims had to be pushed back. France is beginning to re-learn that lesson from history.

They should give them each 72 virgins now, making them wait is obviously at the root of the problem.
Are they beginning to see this wasn't a good plan?

France and Eurasia history repeats itself in U.S. with full support of taqiyya president Obama.
Some people are just getting it? The beard and burka crowd teaches their children to hate and that the best thing they can do is to murder Christians and Jews.
Kick them all out.
These terrorists will have a lot of support in the No-Go Zones.... I mean Sensitive Security Areas....

Yeah. There's the source of the trouble. They've been "neglected".
