Boy are the French screwing this up!

No consequences, just promises of more state goodies...

Unbelievable. They are inviting far worse as the rioters think they're winning. And they are...

This is worse than apeasement they are doing, but complete surrender and a new form of confederate France unheard of. The 5th Republic is a deadhorse getting beat still.

Pouring money into neighborhoods who want to make their own law independently of France is basicaly subsidizing those states and making them stronger and vindicated.

It's screwed, because a rollback of this substatehood would mean an end to the disponibility of France to those substates, which would mean a defiance to socialism and corruption finger pointing as those too are systems which got French disponibility.

Look no further than a blackmail situation where the reds are poised to join the islamofascists to claim their goods.

By the way, while this is going on, there are major threats of strikes by public transportation across France...fun fun fun...

If I'm following this correctly, the tactics they're using are pretty clever. They firebomb property, but do not kill civilians or police, yet. They are terrorizing the govt. into making concessions. If they begin killing anyone, then the military will come in declare martial law and start shooting them, this way France will surrender to them bit by bit over time thinking its just disaffected utes.

France's response is analogous to a parent giving in to a child's temper-tantrum demands. The result will be more tantrums. In this case, the result will be more riots.
