France stunned by rioters’ savagery

Stunned, just stunned, I can't believe rioting could take place in France. Not to put down the French themselves, because much of the rest of Europe and America are in the similar position of having their governments kow-tow to Islamic thuggery. I wonder at what point Europe and the West will wake up and repulse the Islamic onslaught. It better be pretty damn soon.

France stunned by rioters’ savagery
Matthew Campbell, Villiers-le-Bel
In retrospect, it was not a good idea to have left his pistol at home. Called to the scene of a traffic accident in the Paris suburbs last Sunday, Jean-François Illy, a regional police chief, came face to face with a mob of immigrant youths armed with baseball bats, iron bars and shotguns.
What happened next has sickened the nation. As Illy tried to reassure the gang that there would be an investigation into the deaths of two teenagers whose motorbike had just collided with a police car, he heard a voice shouting: “Somebody must pay for this. Some pigs must die tonight!”
The 43-year-old commissaire realised it was time to leave, but that was not possible: they set his car ablaze. He stood as the mob closed in on him, parrying the first few baseball bat blows with his arms. An iron bar in the face knocked him down.
“I tried to roll myself into a ball on the ground,” said Illy from his hospital bed. He was breathing with difficulty because several of his ribs had been broken and one had punctured his lung.
His bruised and bloodied face signalled a worrying new level of barbarity in the mainly Muslim banlieues, where organised gangs of rioters used guns against police in a two-day rampage of looting and burning last week.

French police: “Rioters want to kill us!”
By Judith A. Klinghoffer (bio)

This is getting serious.
Sarkozy is talking about charging rioters with attempted murder. I watched a France 2 interview with Interior Minister Michele Alliot-Marie she was livid. I do not blame her:

“It felt like they were out to kill us. We knew there were weapons in the suburbs, but never turned against us like that,” one of the police officers shot during youth riots near Paris said on Wednesday.Sent to the suburb of Villiers le Bel to quell an outbreak of violence that followed the death of two teens in a crash with police, Francois, who asked not to be fully identified, found himself under siege.
“We were attacked from all sides by youths armed with hunting rifles. . . .
“The kids were shooting at us at close range, loading and reloading their weapons. I’ve never seen anything like it. It was like in a movie. They were picking us off from 10 or 15m away.

"Youths" rioting again in Paris suburbs

More rioting "youths" (read Muslims) in Paris. And it will continue till the French expel Islam. So this was "was not violence but an expression of rage". Expression of rage over what? Being invited into a civilized nation? Being given public assistance? Over France not bending over to Islam? Just what is their problem? When Muslim fanatics get away with burning police stations, it's time to get rid of the Muslims.

"Youths" rioting again in Paris suburbs
"A brother of one of the dead teenagers, Omar Sehhouli, said the rioting 'was not violence but an expression of rage.'" Right.
Omar Sehhouli. Typical French Catholic youth, I suppose. Note the non-specifics about the perpetrators, and the frequent recourse to passive voice.
"Riots break out in Paris suburbs," from the BBC (thanks to all who sent this in):
Youths have damaged police stations, shops and cars in two Paris suburbs, following the deaths of two teenagers whose motorbike hit a police car.
Police said 21 officers were injured in the rioting in the northern suburbs of Villiers-le-Bel and Arnouville.
The Villiers-le-Bel police station was set ablaze and another in Arnouville was pillaged, police say. At least seven people were arrested.
The violence - reminiscent of riots in 2005 - lasted for more than six hours.
In 2005, the deaths of two youths in nearby Clichy-sous-Bois led to France's worst civil unrest in more than 40 years.
Clashes broke out on Sunday night after two teenagers - aged 15 and 16 - were killed when the motorcycle they were driving collided with a police car.
Police sources said the two were riding a stolen mini-motorcycle, and that neither was wearing a helmet.
The police car was on a routine patrol and the teenagers were not being chased by police at the time of the accident, police said. The collision wrecked the front of the car and smashed the windscreen.
Burning cars
Witnesses have accused the police of leaving the scene and of preventing local people from trying to help the youngsters as they lay in the road. The brother of one of the victims has called for the officers involved to be convicted.
After the accident, dozens of youths went on a rampage, setting the police station in Villiers-le-Bel on fire, ransacking the Arnouville police station and torching two petrol stations.
Riot police were sent to the area, but youths blocked their way with burning cars.
French media report that the rioters also damaged the Arnouville-Villiers-le-Bel railway station and nearby shops.
The mayor of Villers-le-Bel, Didier Vaillant, appealed for calm and said he would ensure there was "an impartial investigation, for full light to be shed" on the accident.
A brother of one of the dead teenagers, Omar Sehhouli, said the rioting "was not violence but an expression of rage".
