But that has not happened yet. And the reason that the police do not simply massacre the rioters in the streets is so that it won't.

I think the non-Muslim French are becoming increasingly frightened of this.

I think that the longer it goes on, the more willing they will be to accept any measures the government chooses to take to put an end to it.

And, unfortunately, it may take steps that would make Rwanda look like a Chucky Cheese birthday party

I just heard John Gibson interview Lawrence Eagleburger on Fox and, when Gibson asked Eagleburger if the rioting in France might be a Ramadan offensive, Eagleburger said that thought had never occurred to him. Eagleburger went on to say if that is true, we (the west) have a big problem.

I am astonished that a former Sec. of State would be so in the dark as to potential Islamic trouble in Europe.

If he doesn't get it, I have to wonder if others in the current administration don't get it either. Perhaps some in the administration really do believe Islam is "peaceful and benevolent."

Scary thought!

The rioters will get tired before that happens.

Also, there are many arrests being made each night. There is only a certain quotient of young angry men willing to torch cars. As they are arrested, the remaining willing groups will be reduced.
