| #3 In 2004, the Islamic Society of North America discussed "prison dawah (indoctrination)" as the main topic of its annual convention. They want: minority recruitment to Islam; majority indulgence of jihadism. And they are getting it. |

| #2 The Ffrench government has not to encourage moderate islam but to discourage islam altogether on the guise of sacrosaint laicite (who is sternely enforced agiant anyone else). Actually people from Algerian origin who fought against Islam have been fired from left-controlled cities for "racism". The cities who did this should be struck with such heavy fines they would no longer be tempted to do it anew. |

| #1 The risk is that a violent, confrontational version of Islam finds resonance in a population alienated from mainstream values and progress. If the French government fails to take effective measures to promote the practice of a moderate form of Islam in prisons, it runs the risk of breeding a new generation of terrorists. Not exclusively a "French" problem I'm afraid. |
