First Fatality Reported in French Riots
Fox News, German News. ^ | 11/7/05

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.

Australia, Austria and Britain became the latest countries to advise their citizens to exercise care in France, joining the United States and Russia in warning tourists to stay away from violence-hit areas.

Clashes around France left 36 police injured, and vandals burned 1,408 vehicles overnight Sunday-Monday, setting a new high for overnight arson and violence since the rioting started Oct. 27, national police chief Michel Gaudin

What the mohammedans don't appreciate is that unlike in the former West Germany, the Russians never de-Nazified the former East Germany

Does it matter? Just as some blokes can't help but start a fight in a bar...win or lose...'cause it makes 'em feel better, violent conflict and domination , or irritating servitude...not social compact and mutual prosperity...is the identity and intoxicant of Islam. No? They are getting drunk.

Nah, I think this stew have been simmering in the Crock Pot for some time. AQ goes for shock value and they couldn't possibly coordinate something this large under the nose of French law enforcement. Say what you will about the French, they have an extremely good record when it comes to breaking up domestic terror operations.

This is the Arab street in revolt, alike to the Palestinians. An opportunistic AQ cell, however, has to be licking its chops.

It was widely reported in the beginning that they were Muslims and then political correctness wiped that away. I saw it on BBC, FOX, even the AP reported they were Muslims early on.

It only makes since to believe that they are still only Muslims. No other ethnic or religious group would go near a bunch of crazed Muslims because they themselves would be infidels and the crazed Muslims would just have to kill them.

Nobody parties with crazed Muslims but other Crazed Muslims.

Perhaps it's the encouragement of the president of Iran that puts a Muslim tinge on the scene.

Something tells me these aren't liberal arts agnostics.

Has this been confirmed that this is just Muslims? No offense, but it seems like some people are quick to jump on that bandwagon in regards to Muslims. Just curious of the source of this info.

Oh good grief, of course it's not "just" Muslims. A crowd attracts a crowd, and trouble makers attract trouble makers. But this does not negate the face that these "riots" were begun, maintained, chefly populated with, organized and encouraged by Muslims. These giggling Clockwork-Orange types rush to join any excuse to get their kicks.

And it even fits as a tagline. Proving, once again, that Churchill is the most quotable man ever.

It still sounds like every one of these cities could easily tramp down these INSURGENTS (which is what they are) if they had a set of cojones...

Waiting to hear about RPGs. Perhaps they won't need them if the government maintains its politically wimp status.

P.S. to my other post...

Another good way to tell if its Islam at the helm is to search available photos for girls or women who are involved in the violence. Remember Islam keeps its women caged inside, and you never see them out during fire bomb parties.

In most other cultures women will at least stand around and watch their men burn down society.

"First fatality?" I wonder how many other have gone unreported? I read somewhere on another thread that the wheel chair bound lady that was burned in a transit bus had died, but that was unconfirmed. The MSM makes it exceedingly difficult to get accurate information.

Well I realized that I worded that incorrectly. I should not have put the focus on "just" but rather that these were started and being prepetuated by Muslims. Like I said....I haven't heard this anywhere other than here....and again, this should not surprise me that this little tidbit is being left out of all of the reporting.

I actually heard talk radio discussing this on the way into work this morning. They were calling it the French intifada. The truth will get out eventually. This is too big even for the MSM to cover up forever.

f Kerry was Prez(shudder) there would be wall to wall coverage; 24/7/365.

But whose side would the US be on? Would Kerry not be demanding that the French accomodate the just demands of the oppressed minorities? Or is he truly a Phrankophile? Would Kerry support the French, even against the Mohammedans?

Shouldn't we start a counter on the number of people killed by the riots a la Reuters?

Gotta get some numbers first. So far onlyone and that might be just a garden variety mugging.

I was thinking about the reduction in the stock of automobiles now occurring.
