PARIS INTIFADA CONTINUED (DAY FOUR)

BBC: Paris riots prompt extra security -- Interior Minister Nicolas Sarkozy in Clichy-sous-Bois France's Interior Minister Nicolas Sarkozy has promised to step up security after violence flared for a fourth night in a Paris suburb. Six policemen were hurt and 11 people arrested in the latest clashes with youths in Clichy-sous-Bois, although it was calmer than on previous nights. Police said somebody not yet identified had fired tear gas into a mosque.

Of course, the rioters in Paris do not represent "true Islam." ALTERNATE ASSESSMENT: "The riots are just punishment for the fact that France sent troops to Iraq."
