| Shots fired at mosque in northern France |
| 2004-06-20 |
| Gun-shots were fired overnight at a mosque in northern France and racist graffiti daubed on its walls, police said Friday. Three bullet marks were found by the imam of the mosque in the town of Escaudain when he arrived for morning-prayers. The graffiti included the Nazi "SS" symbol. Last weekend a swastika and graffiti extolling Nazi Germany were sprayed on a mosque in the nearby town of Lens. The conflict is beginning .... |

| #13 Neo-Nazis & jihadees have a shared history when it comes to butchering the Jewish people. France is a classic example. |

| #12 #6: I was being sarcastic on that last part. Of course I know what happened to the Jewish community in France. |

| #11 Islamics would make more interesting enemies for skinheads, rather than Jews (who are kind of peaceful and boring, if you think about it). Since the neo-Nazis just want to cause a ruckus, and have absolutely nothing to contribute to society, oh-man-oh-man have they found fertile ground in the worshipers of a pagan diety commited to war! Ideological "twins" -- but: they're can be only one! Guess I'd be more worried if they had made friends with the Islamics. But that won't happen. It's like gang turf wars. The Islamics think they're the super-race/religion and so do the neo-Nazis. I expect it's gonna be a showdown for some time to come. thx Barbara S., RWV & Laurence :-) |

| #10 rwv - lol! But I'd put my money on the mosque congregants themselves. Oh woe is we! |

| #9 If you're going to shoot up a mosque, don't bother with anything less than 105mm. |

| #8 "Nazi vs Izzoid Terror" Now that's poetic justice. |

| #7 Nazi vs Izzoid Terror? Just how red-on-red can it get? I believe this might just be it. |

| #6 Charles - Not so mysterious, the attendee's were rounded up by the French government (which did so without being made to by the Germans) after their army bent over for Hitler in '40. |

| #5 I'm with RWV. Alot of mosques are also most likely old synagogues too. 60+ year old synagogues whos attendee's mysteriously disappeared. |

| #4 No, the skinheads are so dumb that they probably thought the mosque was a synagogue. |

#2 Three bullet marks were found by the imamHe's lucky it wasn't "three bullets found in the imam." Or maybe they were just lousy shots. |
