On the part of the Western media, there is that unfounded concern about these young protestors becoming jihadis in order to seek justice, as seen in the aforementioned Newsweek report. Such simplistic analyses are not based on any evidence or hard facts. The causality that is assumed in such reports is fictitious at best.

Good article. It would have a larger French audience if the last name of the author was de Lespens or de Gaulle.....with heavy emphasis on the 'de'. Its not until the non Arab French start writing articles like this one will France do something to alleviate the problems in its ghettos.

Let me add.....Chirac's, Villepin's and Sarkozy's response to the riots is some of the worst I have ever seen. Their response is even worse than the one in 1992 by the mayor and police chief of Los Angeles who were embroiled in a feud with each other. If there were a rule book on how to screw up riots, Chirac et al would have hit every mark with perfection. ;~)

As for the take by the American media........once again, Americans show their lack of understanding of things outside their backyard. The Harrises of the world actually became hysterical and insisted that the US and Russia go into France and deactiviate their nuclear weapons and reactors. With so many idiots at the helm of so many key countries, if the world doesn't implode in the next 5 years, it will be a miracle!
