France: Afghans Brawling in the Street


-FdeSouche/Valeurs Actuelles



Just another day in Gay Paree. People having coffee in sidewalk cafes, lovers walking hand-in-hand, tourists gawking at the Eifel Tower, and..........

Afghans "making mischief in the land" ( to borrow a phase).

This morning, about 30 Afghans took to the street in the 18th arrondissement with clubs and knives to engage in that traditional Afghan pastime-fighting, a tradition they have imported to the West, enriching us all.  Le Figaro has the report here, as translated by Fousesquawk.

The French blog, Francois deSouche, has video of the incident here (viewer warning).
