French City with 40% Muslim Population is the Most Dangerous City in Europe

The gritty Mediterranean port, France's second-largest city, was appointed the "cultural capital of Europe," a rotating European Union honor. City fathers launched beautification projects, created new tourism attractions and invited people from around the world to visit. A splendid stone esplanade was laid around the Old Port, peppered with novel sculpture, and a high-tech historical museum went up next to City Hall.

How did that work out?

The eruption has refocused attention on Marseille's long-standing reputation as a European drug-smuggling hub, a place where entire neighborhoods have slipped away from police control and fallen under the command of gangsters who earn millions importing and selling North African hashish and settle turf disputes with AK-47 assault rifles.

"Marseille is sick with its violence," Interior Minister Manuel Valls said.

Vowing to squash the drug trade and end the violence, Valls last week dispatched 250 paramilitary and other national police officers to reinforce the usual deployment of around 3,000. The night after they were deployed, with television cameras in tow, another body was found, burned to a crisp with a bullet in its charred skull, the execution method local traffickers call the "barbecue." The next day, two Turkish immigrants were shot and wounded, and a pair of youths driving by on a motor scooter opened fire with a pistol on a third man, wounding him in the legs.

Marseille doesn't have a violence problem. It has a Muslim immigrant problem.

Wow. Gross.

Re the article: Daniel Greenfield should really relax. The French are totally capable of being appallingly racist and spuriously blaming broad social problems on "omg immigrants!" on their own, without any help at all from rampaging freelance Islamophobes. Is he trying to sell a book these days? I'll bet he's trying to sell a book these days.

Ah but the French do it with such flair and that quaint gallic shrug
