for me, the most unsettling thing to come of this are the activities of mosques and various muslim clerics within france. their role in trying to quell the violence must have good-intentions at their immediate roots but their success (the only ones who appear to have had any degree of success) belies a disturbing part of the Franco-Muslim psyche... Islam has replaced French law as the highest legal authority. No amount of pleading from the French government could do what the Bilal mosque did.
This mirrors the activity in Muslim enclaves within Australia, the Netherlands, and Great Britain... pockets of immigrants where the Ummah are asserting dominance within the kafir homeland, where dhimmitude as a worldview is gaining ground.

If you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly, you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance for survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.
