a few dayz back the Independent's front page said it so well in light of the rioting that is burning Paris and areas of France....

Liberté?
Muslims banned from wearing headscarves in school

Egalité?
France's non-whites twice as likely to be unemployed

Fraternité?
French Government admits integration policies have failed

---->>>>Realité.
Chirac vows to restore order as France is engulfed by riots

The French Interior Minister Nicolas Sarkozy added fuel to the fire saying that the "scum" will be hosed down i.e. the marginalised, impoverised youth living in woeful conditions in a land so called founded on "Liberty, Egalitarianism and Brotherhood" who are rioting now all over Paris and areas of France. He is equally as rabid saying "He had no intention of resigning, if his approached failed, the law of drug barons and ISLAMISTS would prevail" - despite France's police intelligence saying it has nothing to do with drug overlords and "Islamists" i.e. MUSLIMS....but the rioters being gangs living in French style "projects" as young as 10 years old to 22 years old.

Assalam Alaikum,

Recent developments out of France is that the rioters have just recently used a gun against police, injuring an officer. This creates an added chaos, because it may be that Police may be allowed to fire at the rioters.

Let's what happens next.
