France's interior minister threatened today to expel any Muslim religious leader considered extremist after a fundamentalist Muslim organization unexpectedly won a large number of seats in an election for the country's first national council of Muslims.

Not exactly. This national Islamic Council was an attempt by French politicians to win the vote of Islamics by giving them more influence in the government: "It is precisely because we recognize the right of Islam to sit at the table of the republic that we will not accept any deviation," said the Interior Minister, calling it "the official Islam for France."
The NY Slimes writes that "The other mainstream religions have long had similar councils," but neglects to mention that these "councils" were formed by the religions themselves, whereas the Muslim Council was formed by the government of France.
Now the French government is dismayed at the predictable result: extremists were elected. France is playing with fire by trying to placate Muslims at home and abroad, and they will definitely get burned.
There is some grim satisfaction in reading the complaints of Cardinal Jean-Marie Lustiger, who was "shocked" by George W. Bush's calls for prayers for a U.S. victory in the Iraq war, now moaning that the French government was making Islam a "state religion." Quel dommage!
