With out going on about this, yes! the thing is way underplayed. the riots were not reported until about 3 days after it started, so what is that telling you? its really all about power and who will run what after this is over, over there:wink: within 5 years you will see a Islamic government with real power to attack us all. we will see this kind of evil here but with the Mexican take over inside the non nation. is paris still burning:?:
They are “Arab youth” ! I just wish they would say what it is!
2, Political Correctness prevents the MSM in France from being accurate and fully truthful.
According to the MSM, the rioters are “youg people” and “youths”. They have finally allowed that they are of “North African” origin, but just as quickly paint them as victims, because they are angered by years of discrimination and poverty.
Oh, I feel so sorry for them! They are the real victims for sure! Where’s my Joan Baez peace songs tape? I must put it on right away. Visualize world peace! I just love Kool-Aid!
Not…
If you want a different point of view in reporting this, take a look at Israel National News. Just put a dot com after that to get their website.
These Muslims don’t want to blend in. They want to take over and the French are just bending over. They don’t deserve to have a country, and they are losing it without a fight.
“the French don’t deserve to have a country”
-pcd
(just thought it was a funny line)
It is right on the money.
Liberalism is a form of mental illness.
Fred, you should be careful what you post on the internet (“building bombs”). We are all passionate about what we believe, but remember that this is a public forum and that anyone can see what you posted. Someone might take what you post literally.
So in the poll, 4% say “No, absolutely not.” Well, I guess you could have a group of people standing outside in broad daylight, and someone in the group would insist it was night time. That’s the nature of politics.
To Robert, someday my head will be cut off but i will die as a real American and not as a fool for the one world ideals of total human corruption, long live the USA.
Fred, I think your heart is in the right place. I just wouldn’t want some goons to kick in your door and drag you away just because of something you posted here.
5% now say “No, absolutely not” regarding the media? Maybe it’s time for a new poll “Is the Earth flat?”
I predict about 5% saying that it is.
No, not in any way! And the U.S. troops are like Nazis. They’re worse than the Stalin death squads! They’re the most evil thing this planet has seen for decades!!!
Now has anybody seen my Turban?
Of course its underplayed, especially in Europe.
Since the Europeans seem to have good memories according to them, most of them still remember what happened to Theo Van Gogh.
After the release of the small film Theo Van Gogh was brutally butchered in broad daylight in public by a Muslim man.
The video by the way is of a Modern Muslim woman Stuck in a catch 22 world of Islam that is in dire need of reform.
