Apparent copycat attacks spread to other European cities for the first time, with five cars torched outside Brussels' main train station, police in the Belgian capital said.

It did start slowly, didn't it? So you think c. 5,000 is right then?

More Info for all:
Muslim businesses are NOT being attacked.
Muslim internet poster: Brahim. I quote:
"Nice work people," he writes. "The cops are petrified of us, everything must burn, starting Monday, the operation 'Midnight Sun' starts, tell everyone else, rendezvous for Momo and Abdul in Zone 4 ... jihad Islamia Allah Akhbar."
User "Samir's" message is just as threatening. "You don't really think that we're going to stop now? Are you stupid? It will continue, non-stop. We aren't going to let up. The French won't do anything and soon, we will be in the majority here."

My point is the MSM. They have been under-reporting this because the riots in France validate Bush (e.g., Bush was right about terror and Jihadists).
If a Dem was president, they would be all over this. Anytime Clinton *appeared* to take a leadership position, the MSM would proclaim it to the high heavens.Look at his decision to bomb Iraq just as the Monica thing was starting to explode. The MSM were wetting themselves trying to get the story out.
Actually, I fear a Democrat presidency, especially with the likes of Kerry at the helm. There would be accomodation and pullback and withdrawal until the saracens take advantage of our lack of any sort of security and Boston Harbor gets a nuke in a freighter. A Kerry would go nuts and start throwing everything we have in all directions.
they murdered a 61 year old man when he attempted to put out a fire............sad day for France when they cannot protect an elderly man.
