French Police Raiding Housing Projects Filled With Immigrants Of Unknown Religion (Plus: At Least Radical Muslims Are Honest Anti-Semites)

Immigration

The AP clocks in with yet another wonderfully informative article:

More than 1,000 police, some wearing black hoods, raided housing projects outside Paris in a massive sweep Monday, kicking open doors and detaining 33 people in a search for rioters who led an outburst of violence last year, a prosecutor said. Critics called the early morning operation, captured on television cameras, a "security spectacle" aimed at bolstering President Nicolas Sarkozy before municipal elections next month. Sarkozy recently vowed to better police the neglected neighborhoods, populated largely by families of immigrant background, that exploded in nationwide riots in 2005. Riot police and other officers were mobilized for Monday's raids in Villiers-le-Bel and in the neighboring towns of Sarcelles, Gonesse and Arnouville as part of the investigation into a flare-up of violence there in November, according to police.

There's a very brief mention of the race of the suspected rioters - "Arabs or black", as if that's somehow a clue to their motivations - somewhere below where 95 perfect of newspaper readers stop reading.

How long do you think it'll be before someone blames the raids on the "Jewish Lobby" that supposedly controls France? We're actually glad to see that kind of anti-Semitic language out in the open. It's so much more honest than the liberal grassroots "neocon" or nudge-wink Walt and Mearsheimer "Zionist".
