I'd have thought, because the rioters seem to be primarily Muslim, that someone in the US would have latched on it as a "Look the terrorists are everywhere" kind of thing. Especially since you could browbeat France with it, in a "SEE WE TOLD YOU THEY'RE EVERYWHERE" kind of manner.
I can't say I've read enough about this to understand what the deal-y is. On the way home from work, I listen to the BBC World Service, it's been high on thier list. The gist I got was that yet more poor, unhappy, mulsim young men are rioting. Not sure what the truth of the matter is.
Any help from a European TFPers would be appreicated. Judging a story by what we hear in the media over here is bound to be an exercise in futility.
