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.

On that last, I have in the past made the prediction that we might again see concentration camps and gas chambers in Europe. I am not at all happy at making this observation, but nevertheless think it not at all unlikely. And within my lifetime, and I have not reached fifty.

So, do you predict the French, Belgians, Spanish and Dutch marching so willingly into the ovens as the Jews, Catholics and Gypsies did?

It sounds like you are pretty much an America Hater yourself.
Are you sure you are on the right website?

The tally is well over twenty thousand for the year - I'm wondering how high the insurance premiums in France are? Maybe it's all a plot of the capitalist car manufaturers, hmmm?

In reporting the headline "Paris Burning", Catherine Herridge from Fox News just said the French had warned the Bush adm. that war with Iraq would inflame muslims.

They just found a way to blame Bush for Ch(Iraq)'s problem. Find me some Kaopectate!

That does it. I knew this was coming. It's Bush's fault.

Now there's the real question. Who will be running them?

Did you see that AFP is reporting that the cars in the center of Paris were set afire with a flame thrower?

It is kind of hard to figure out how such a terrific number of vehicles could be burned without something like that. I mean, I could go to the mall parking lot and maybe get one or two to burn all night (and, of course, someone might notice my attempts and stop me).

You knew that was coming. Chirac fiddles and blames Bush while his country is burning.

France has been taken over by madness.

"Catherine Herridge from Fox News just said the French had warned the Bush adm. that war with Iraq would inflame muslims."

That sounds like her own personal commentary, if so, she's inept!

[In reporting the headline "Paris Burning", Catherine Herridge from Fox News just said the French had warned the Bush adm. that war with Iraq would inflame muslims. ]

But that means it's taken them three years to "inflame". Isn't that a bit of a delayed reaction to a three year old invasion?

He is saying that the riots are spreading to the heart of Paris (downtown) and there are cars burning there.

"I'm beginning to wonder if this whole thing wasn't planned. Perhaps the burning were going to take place anyway. Riots this long and intensive usually have long intentioned planning behind them."

I agree!!

Catherine Herridge from Fox News

Not to go off topic, but is Catherine Herridge the scariest woman on television? I am only clairvoyent some of the time (and I never know when), but I think she has a cleaver in her purse (prolly with my name on it).

This is irritating. Now we know that Miss Herridge and Shep Smith are of the same ilk.

Pandering to thugs and bullies does not work. How hard is that to figure out? It didn't work with Hitler and it won't work with Islam. France will not learn.

"Yet in a country where 28,000 cars have been burnt on housing estates this year alone,..."

That's ~80 cars a day. No wonder the MSM isn't covering this.
