Extremism in all forms can be dangerous.

Indeed...and that was exactly my point. But with respect to France you seem to relish the predicament of radical islamists being in their country. I think this is ingenuine on your part, because if radical islam succeeds in France, or in any country in the west, it will be a blow to the entire world.

And now you somehow expect that France's geographical position on the globe, hanging like a piece of fruit over the Muslim coast of North Africa has nothing to do with the influence of Islam there? That the fate of France is somehow their own fault...and you will derive much glee from their difficult position. Interesting. As if France has any real control on their proximity to poor countries of Northern Africa. Did you know that many of the folks in France that came from North Africa came there illegally? Compare the situation on our southern border with our poorer neighbor Mexico. All I can say is that we might be fortunate that Mexico is not an Islamic country.
