Paris/France burns, Live thread (night #10)

Posted on 11/05/2005 9:39:59 AM PST by Dane

It is now getting dark in Paris and in all of France(appx. 6:40 PM Paris Time), and if there are any French FR lurkers(lurquers), this may be the thread to post your reports about any further violence.

It seems the French govt. is impotent in it's response to what seems are jihadist thugs and it seems the American media has put a news blackout filter to what is really happening, so as not to embarass their heroes, Chirac et al.

So any news reports or personal reports from what happens tonight are welcome, and don't worry about broken English, reports in French are welcome also, I have no doubt someone can translate.

I really dread putting up a live thread about such a matter, but it seems that the American MSM is following French govt. orders to play down to what it seems is an insurrection.

I just had a thought! We could send them back their tents and cots for the people who've been burned out of their apartments...

Ha! A rare perp photo, picked up from the Spanish newspaper link! This is from last night. It's almost impossible to find riot perp pics in any media outlet...

>>To my French brothers I promise this: I will stop at nothing to make sure that the United Nations condemns this kind of behavior.


LMBO! Can't wait to throw that in the face of some Libs.

Don't sweat it kids. The French will get over this as they did 9-11 here. Chirac seemed untouched by our sorrow and shock, he'll care even less about what is happening there. More importantly, the French people will go back to eating croissants and making artsy films when the Muslims stopped burning things. It will all be like it never happened, that is until the next time.

That's right. It's not a riot, it's national spontaneous combustion!

"Chirac seemed untouched by our sorrow and shock, he'll care even less about what is happening there."

Chirac better pray that these "young people" don't get a hold of some real weapons like RPG's. He may have a civil war on his hands if he doesn't handle this soon.

Those can only be used on black people, unless they've been deployed somewhere else in the last few years?

"and it seems the American media has put a news blackout filter to what is really happening,..."

It must be a neo-con conspiracy. LOL! [...little sarcasm and irony there.]

There are currently only "about 1,410 related articles" from the web media on the riots in France.

Next...Britain, Germany, Italy,...

>>What are we missing? Are Algerian/Frenchies not drafted like white Frenchies are being drafted?

The fact that practially, it isn't a particularly wonderful idea?
