For the past six days, Muslim youths and others have been rioting on the outskirts of Paris. You can read all the stories. To me, the interesting aspect is the lack of focus these stories have placed on the fact that Muslims are at the center of this controversy.
This story from Yahoo tells about the mayhem, but it takes about 17 paragraphs before the word Muslim is mentioned.
Here's another one from CNN, a little better in that it mentions Mosques and Imams, but still a little lacking on describing the sides.
Here's one from a few days ago that didn't even mention the word Muslim. Here's another. But notice the picture.
Ah, here we go.
