Hooded Youths” seems to be a “veiled” reference to the Muslim youth who caused untold damage last year throughout France. In the latest of uprisings it seems as if gangs of them are beginning again what was thought to be over this year.

FRENCH TV ATTACKED BY “YOUTHS” Reuters

Paris - Hooded youths attacked a crew working for French state television on Tuesday in a violence-prone suburb near Paris, injuring a cameraman, police and France 2 television said.
The youths attacked the six-strong team with iron bars as they tried to film in the Clichy-Sous-Bois neighbourhood early in the afternoon.

The cameraman suffered a blow to the head and needed medical treatment.

Clichy-Sous-Bois was the centre of riots that rocked France’s poor, ethnically-mixed suburbs one year ago.

Violence has flared regularly in the run up to the anniversary but police say most neighbourhoods have remained relatively calm.

What is amazing is that over 2,500 police have been wounded in the riots this year. People complain about the violence in Iraq but seem to ignore the attacks in France. Is this what American voters want to happen in America. It will if we fail to win the war.

Another Muslim intifadah rages in France. Hundreds of cars are torched nightly and passenger buses set ablaze with Molotov cocktails. One such fire in Marseille leaves a 26-year-old woman in a coma with burns covering 70 percent of her body. “We are in a state of civil war, orchestrated by radical Islamists,” says police union leader Michel Thoomis. “This is not a question of urban violence any more. It is an intifadah, with stones and firebombs.” So far this year, more than 2,500 police have been wounded in clashes with rioters.

    [...] have noticed slow leaks and bits of news about France. It wasn’t all that long ago that it was huge. I appears to be rekindling…. but don’t let reports that the election has caused it. [...]
