A Lesson in Western Europe

I don't normally comment about world affairs, however, the riots in France are going to become an instructive event. Virtually every country in Western Europe is in the midst a native population decline. In order to stem this decline and to keep up economic activity, they have allowed virtually unfettered, immigration of Muslims, mostly from their North African ex-colonies. Many of these people are uneducated and perform menial labor.

For the past week for a variety of reasons groups of these people have been rioting in Paris. According to the AP
"A week of riots in poor neighborhoods outside Paris gained dangerous new momentum Thursday, with youths shooting at police and firefighters and attacking trains and symbols of the French state. "
Television pictures of the riots bring to mind Baghdad or Beirut not Paris. According to the French interior minister
"What we saw in the department of Seine-Saint-Denis overnight was not spontaneous, it was perfectly organized. We are looking into by whom and how,"
Organized. Hmm, perhaps from within the Masques. It wouldn't surprise me to see an upcoming wave of terrorism in France. And, no amount of outlawing criticism of any ethnic group as hate speach is going to stop what is coming.

It would be wise for the Brits and the Dutch to pay close attention.
