| Are the French Insane? |

| Check out this pic of an "anti-globalization" march in Frogistan. Is that Hamas? Why yes, I believe it is. My question: if that's a real weapon hood-boy is waving around, why aren't the French police putting a warning shot through the middle of his forehead? Just a thought. |

| #3 I'm pretty sure this picture was not taken in France - the gun, even if plastic, is a big no-no, for starters, as is wearing a hood. Gaza, I presume. Still, a few time ago, arab protesters in Perpignan marched on to protest the death of one of them at the hands of gypsies to the tunes of allah u akbar and muslim professions of faith, security being provided by young men in green t-shirts. according to onlookers and a few tv time, it was shockingly similar to a palestinian demonstration. Worrying, to say the least... Note this was followed by race riots, (infidels') cars burning, shop smashing, verbal threats, one another murder of an arab by unknown parties, the appearance of self-styled "spokemen" intercessing from Morocco of from religious authorities, and the exodus of gypsy families from the city. The situation is still tense, and is put a lid onto by massive police presence; Sarkozy (now minsiter of interior) did his show, preparing his "tough on crime" image for the presidential race, and assured "everything would be done to restore order", adressing mostly the muslim community (he's one of the most muslim-friendly pol around, for electoral reasons). As one onlooker told him the problem was having "too much muslims" in the first place, he elegantly responded "piss off". |

| #2 I assume the headline is a rhetorical question. |

| #1 I suspect the picture comes from a different story. |
