Jihad Watch has, as usual, an interesting post up which says in essence that the Muslims in France want an autonomous section that they can govern and rule by Sharia Law.

As some Muslim leaders have explained, what they want is autonomy in their ghettos. They seek to receive extraterritorial status from the French government, meaning that they will set their own rules based, one can assume, on Sharia law. If the militants are able to achieve this goal, even on an informal basis, then those declaring that France has fallen will be proven right.

It's a long post but well worth your time.

There is always the possibility that this is a Muslim sponsored attempt to create a Palestine on the Seine. Could be, or could evolve into it. What a coup that would be for Islam.
