France is learning you can not stop islamofacists with words

The French people have long held that they are immune to attacks from islamic radicals. They felt that if they were nice , polite and bent over back ward for anything the muslims asked for that France would be safe. Well , sadly the French have learned that some people of islam want too much and if you do not give it too them on a silver platter you will pay. How many islamists were shouting " death to France " in the muslim world is an interesting number given how much France has been good to islam and muslims , . . .but a more interesting number would be the number of muslims inside France yelling " death to France " even though France opened its doors wide to muslims and allowed them so many things and been so good to muslims.

Some way to say thank you ! It shows that you can not deal with radical islam by being nice. The islamofacists will bite the hand that feeds them . Now France has let in huge numbers of muslims , some good and some bad, they can not turn back the clock. Is there a lesson for us to learn here ?
