The Astute Blogger wonders why the media isn't paying attention to this, the way they'd pay attention to burned mosques.

While the Reuters headline says French unrest dies down, the article reads,
Ninety-eight vehicles were set ablaze during the night, a sharp drop from the peak of the violence when 1,400 vehicles were torched in one night on November 6 by youths who say they are excluded from mainstream French society.

"The situation has returned to normal because about 100 vehicles are set on fire each night in France," a police spokesman said.
At least the Beeb's headline was more accurate than Reuters, French violence 'back to normal'
French police say levels of violence in France have returned to normal, following three weeks of unrest by urban youths across the country.
Let's hope they stay away from the churches.

Update: Maria sent Victor Davis Hanson's article, Europeans fooling themselves with utopia.
