subject: Two busses torched in Paris

From: "George Sherwood" 

But guess not such a big deal since 30-50 cars are torched still every
week.  I can't believe this doesn't get more attention.  If this was
happening in the State there would be rejoicing in this group since it
would show how much every one was against President Bush.  But for Europe
guess just normal now.  Also editorial on whether Europe become Eurabia.
Still seems a little extreme, but Europe will be changing greatly.

CLICHY-SOUS-BOIS, France - Police deployed 4,000 reinforcements as
marauding youths torched at least two public buses Friday, the anniversary
of the deaths of two teenagers that ignited weeks of riots in largely
immigrant housing projects across France.

Some 100 cars were torched nationwide overnight, half of them in the Paris
region, police officials said. The figure was higher than usual   police
say between 30 and 50 cars are set on fire during an average week, though
some weekends the figure jumps to 100. On the most fiery night of last
year's riots, more than 1,400 cars went up in flames.

The signs of this passing are sometimes difficult to pick up but they are
there and an increasing number of observers are beginning to think and
comment about the phenomena. Paul Belin of the Brussels Journal notes, for
example, that  Mohammed is the most popular name of new born males in
Brussels, Rotterdam and other major European cities.  And no wonder,
considering that:

 The number of emigrants leaving the Netherlands and Germany has already
surpassed the number of immigrants moving in. One does not have to be
prophetic to predict  | Europe is becoming Islamic. Just consider the
demographics. The number of Muslims in contemporary Europe is estimated to
be 50 million. It is expected to double in 20 years. By 2025, one-third of
all European children will be born to Muslim families.  These figures
remind us that, as demographers well know, demographics are destiny.

Belin was prompted by an interview in a Dutch newspaper in which German
author Henryk Broder lamented that young Europeans who value things like
individual freedom should emigrate to New Zealand or Australia now because
in 20 years they will not recognize Europe. French police who nightly
battle Muslim youths who increasingly describe their struggle as an
intifada might say Broder s timetable is optimistic, as an average of 112
cars are burned every night in France these days, according to the London
Times.
