Arabs Blame French Society, Discrimination
By TAREK AL-ISSAWI
The Associated Press
Wednesday, November 9, 2005; 2:07 PM
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates -- France's riots have set off a round of =
troubled debate across the Arab world: Most here blame a failure to =
offer opportunity to immigrants, but others see a more ominous clash of =
cultures over Islam.
Across the Middle East, the images of burning cars and stone-throwing =
young people have dominated newspapers and television. Analysts have =
hotly debated the riots' meaning, their cause and whether they might =
spread.
"The anger displayed, and the intensity with which it has spread, is =
alarming," said one Persian Gulf political analyst, Abdul Khaleq =
Abdulla.
Most attribute the flare-ups to social injustice and high unemployment, =
rather than anti-Islamic discrimination or a wider culture clash. They =
have urged the French government _ and the Western world at large _ to =
take concrete steps to rectify the problem.
"There are no puzzles here. The core problem is mass degradation and =
alienation manifesting themselves in ... belts of educated, usually =
unemployed, young men throughout Arab and Asian urban areas; and in =
parallel urban zones of mass disenfranchisement and marginalization," =
said Rami Khouri, writing Wednesday in the Lebanon Daily Star.
Added Al-Arabiya director Abdel Rahman al-Rashed: "These are the voices =
of a community that has no voice on the political scene."
But Iran has taken a more provocative slant, blaming anti-Islamic =
sentiment that it contends is widespread across Europe.
"Restrictions imposed on the Islamic dress code in France are an =
official policy there and the government has suppressed minorities' =
beliefs and humiliated them openly," the hard-line Jomhuri Eslami daily =
said in a commentary.
Immigrants tend to blend in more in the United States, while in Europe =
the barriers of culture, language and class are high, noted Shafiq =
al-Ghabra, the president of the American University in Kuwait, in his =
column in Al-Rai Al-Aam daily.
The worry is that right-wing groups will gain power in France because of =
the uprisings, he said.
"Will Europe enter into a confrontation phase with Muslims on its =
territories?" he asked.
Many of those rioting are French-born children of immigrants from =
France's former Arab and north African territories like Algeria. =
Community leaders in France's slums have long complained of a lack of =
jobs and widespread discrimination.
Among government leaders in the Arab world, the images of streets on =
fire raised many alarms.
In Saudi Arabia, the official Saudi Press Agency reported Wednesday that =
King Abdullah, in a telephone conversation with French President Jacques =
Chirac, expressed "the kingdom's hope that the French government would =
be able to put an end to the acts of sabotage."
The Jordan Times, an English-language daily, compared the French riots =
to those three years ago in Maan, a poor city in southern Jordan that is =
an Islamist stronghold and frequently prone to rioting.
"Many blamed the riots on Islamic fundamentalism, exactly like many =
today are speaking of religious violence in the Parisian banlieues =
(suburbs)," said the Jordan Times in an editorial. "But deep down, they =
are two stories of denied opportunities, forgotten reform."
