(Val-de-Reuil) Smack bang in the middle between Paris and Le Harve is the town of Val-de-Reuil which boasts a population of
around 13,000 people. A somewhat non-descript place, it hit the headlines across France last Friday morning when at around 2am
the local police station was attacked by around 15 Islamic youths who in
between throwing Stones, pyrotechnic devices and cobblestones chanted: “Allah
Ackba’ Fuck the French and “We are going to burn you”. The two policemen on
duty managed to hold off the gang using tear gas until reinforcements arrived, whereupon
the faithful decided to retire for the night .
As can be expected the police union has gone up the wall citing police cuts and underfunding, but not why would a gang of so called disfranchised gang of Muslims feel the need to attack a police station at 2am.
A few days later and the Local Mayor has decided to stick his nose into the argument by disputing the French police version of events, claiming it was simply local youths letting off steam , on a hot night after their football team Algeria had beaten Senegal 1- 0 at the African Cup of Nations.
