To try to make the French riots into a religious affair demonstrates inherent prejudice and ignorance.

Having actually been to some of thes Muslim ghettoes I can say with authority that it is their fanatical religion which makes assimilation impossible.

The Muslim religion, when lived in the fundamental manner is not conducive to civilized society, never mind actual sophistication.

Women in Burkhas cluster indoors while men spend the time gambling on the sidewalk while the kids are busy with petty theft.

It's a religious issue. Only folks who have never been to these places can say otherwise.

These neighborhoods don't want to be French, German or (insert name of nation here) They want France to be a very rich Algeria/Turkey that panders to their desires.

The violent and ignorant are not excused just because they find themselves disenfranchised due to their religious beliefs.

The ones who successfully assimilate are NOT fundamentalist. They are women and men who educate themselves into their new nations language and culture. They are often bilingual and intelligent.

The women are not permitted to work in many fundamentalist homes and the men who hold these views are incapable of working with women in the real world. Making them unemployable in a western setting. They use vulgar slurs against any woman walking past without a Burkha and western women (or sophisticated Muslim women) are in real jeopardy in these slums

So they get jobs where they do not work with women or in the ghetto itself. The high unemployment is directly attributable to the number of fundamentalists in their community who are inflexible, unhirable or simply not even seeking work. Their predicament is almost entirely self-imposed and IS religious in nature, combined with the dumb leftist immigration policy that breeds massive poverty out of misplaced "charity".

Save your rhetoric for some bleeding heart liberals who haven't actually seen these folks firsthand.

It's ALL about religion.
