The `youths' ring in Ramadan with riots in Britain, France and Belgium


And with almost no mainstream media attention, I might add. And certainly no mention of the Muslim nature of the youths...which you can basically discern by noting the location of the riots and the careful avoidance of any mention of Ramadan or Islam!


In France, there was another attack on police after a previous ambush set up by the `youths' at the start of the holiday that badly injured two members of a CRS anti-riot unit in the southern Paris suburb of Corbeil-Essonnes.

Seven French police officers were hurt during clashes with scores of `youths' that broke out after a car chase in Les Mureaux, in the western Paris outskirts, police vehicles were damaged and at least one police car merited a car-becue, in the time-honored `youth' tradition.

The incident followed the arrest of a `youth' who drove his car into a police vehicle after being chased for a traffic offence. As he was being taken to the police station in another vehicle, it was attacked by a mob.

"There were around 250 people — very angry and very hostile," police officials said.

Qu'attendez-vous, mes amis ? After last year, with no response from the French government to weeks of rioting, did you expect anything different?


In Belgium, The Brussels Journal appears to be alone in reporting on three straight nights of Ramadan rioting.

The riots occurred on the Brussels Marollen quarter and the area near the Midi Train Station, where the international trains from London and Paris arrive. `Youths' stoned and assaulted passing pedestrians and cars, bus shelters were demolished, cars were subjected to car-becues, a youth club was burned down and a shop or two was looted.

Two molotov cocktails were reportedly thrown into St.Peter'’s hospital, one of the main hospitals of central Brussels. The local fire brigade was able to extinguish the fires at the hospital, but not before the `youths' managed to steal the keys to the fire engine!

During the month of Ramadan, for those of you who don't know, Muslims are required to fast during the day and are only allowed to eat after sundown. As the Journal points out "What should be noticed about the riots is that they start after sunset. Besides the fact that they start after dark, it also gives the rioters enough time to break their fast and enjoy the traditional family meal. Sunset is around 7:30pm."

The Belgian municipal elections are being held on Sunday October 8th. It'll be interesting to see what effect the rioting has on them.

And in Britain, the action centered on the Jamea Masjid mosque in Clarendon Street, Avenham,in Lancanshire, with massive street battles for two straight nights. It's uncertain whether Muslims were responding to an attack on cars parked outside a local mosque, whether it was a battle between Muslim factions, or simply some of the local `youths' rejoicing in British dhimmi-itis.

Here's the money quote from the article: `It resulted in one 16-year-old Asian youth being stabbed in the arm, but ambulance crews were turned back as the police felt it was too dangerous for them to enter the scene.

Almost sounds like the banlieus in France with their no-go zones, , doesn't it?

Hat tip to snapped shot and Charles at little green footballs.

Sharia, Ramma-Damma-Ding Dong!!

Nothing like some good riots to lighten up the mood.
