France

[MaryN]

It is a terrible atrocity. Those poor people. Mind you, I don't think the French can get more angry than they are now. My friends over the Channel tell me that you could cut the tension with a knife, and it won't take much for a backlash to erupt throughout the country. It is not helped by the fact that the French absolutely loathe Muslims - seriously, anyone who has even the "look" of an Arab is guaranteed to be seen as the bottom of the pile. Things are going to get much, much worse.
