| FIMWA: French Interior Ministers With Attitude |
Interior Minister Sarkozy's latest fatwa against the suburban anarchists: "deport them all!"
Paris - Interior minister Nicolas Sarkozy on Wednesday issued orders for non-French rioters convicted in the wave of urban violence to be deported - a measure directed at youths of Arab and African background living in the high-immigrant neighbourhoods involved in the unrest.
Sarkozy told prefects, or regional governors, to apply the order to foreigners including those who have valid French residency visas. Pat Buchanan would probably approve. But once they're deported, what's to stop them becoming even more radicalized and sneaking back in ... maybe with similarly pissed off friends...? And then what?
Update: Paris' get-tough policies seem to be working, and meanwhile, French officials are holding two bloggers in the riot probe...
