France's run-down city suburbs are becoming separate Islamic societies cut off from the state, a report has warned.
Arab communities are increasingly rejecting French values and identity to immerse themselves in Muslim culture and lifestyle, it was found.
Muslim pupils often boycott school dinners if the food is not halal and most Arabs oppose marriages to white French citizens, the study by respected political scientist Gilles Kepel revealed.
As a result, France whose five million Muslims make up Europes largest Islamic population was turning into a divided nation, the study called Suburbs of the Republic found.
Dr Kepel wrote: In some areas, a third of the population of the town does not hold French nationality, and many residents are drawn to an Islamic identity rather than simply rejecting or failing to find a secular one.
French schools, which are rigorously non-religious, have traditionally been seen as having the role of training young citizens of the republic.
But local officials say Islamic pupils are heading home for a halal lunch.
Most people in France do not object to mixed marriages, but in the suburbs we were surprised to find a very large proportion of Muslim respondents said they were opposed to marriages with non-Muslims.
The study was commissioned by the Institut Montaigne think-tank. It will make recommendations to the government in January.

Build walls around them, with manned (armed) gates. If you come out, you can't get back in. And why should any of them want to come out, since they don't want to mix with the French? (That way, the women who don't want to live in the 7th Century can leave, and the clowns who want them to can't follow and murder them.)

Then you're dumber than a box of rocks and shouldn't be let out of the house without close supervision by someone with a clue.

because solid walls = "Ghetto" = PC/actual bad. If they impose internal walls, it's "diversity" and "cultural heritage" non-dilution = "PC good". You wouldn't understand

A real Planet Chiron mind-worm that one.
The Mind Worms get their name from their primary method of attack. After finding prey, they assault their target with a barrage of terrifying psychic attacks, paralizing them with fear. After the victim is paralyzed in terror, they burrow into the still-conscious host's brain and carefully implant their ravenous larvae. They are also able to burrow through most substances that are softer than Plasma-Steel. Only the most disciplined soldiers can resist this horrific attack long enough to trigger the Flame Guns that hold them at bay.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
