The European French have been leaving France for a few years now and their is an estimate that the countries majority are Muslim North Africans. I am certain that the PM has boosted the security poster for good reason.

Whats strange is a presence of soldiers on the streets already during the holiday season?

"Crowded shopping and tourist areas are already being patrolled by about 780 soldiers, and those numbers were being by another 200 to 300 Tuesday, he said."

In NYC, under the Bloomberg admin there was a number of incidents were cabs "jump" the curb and killed or injured x number of people on regular basis. It was frequent, someone finally connected the dots. But, due to PC, it went unpublished -the names of the drivers were all Mid East, or Southwest Asia.

Most of the EU states do not have the seperation of law enforcement that the USA has. In many, it is simular to the distinctions we have between the US Navy & Coast Guard. It is administered at a National level, with a jurisdictional truff thingy. Operational execution often involves horizontal & vertical organization match-ups.

Very interesting WD. Can you cite a credible reference for that estimate? Inquiring minds want to know.

TJ, I have never seen an actual official estimate the estimates are from the former French citizens I know who have come to the U.S. who say that French non-Muslims are routinely threatened by Muslims. In Paris a friends entire family left France to the U.S. and Canada due to the children in their district being threatened by Muslims in the schools to either join Islam or have their female family members raped and killed. The perception of many French is that France is more N. African french than European.
