The man responsible in the first place as President, M. Jacques Chirac has expressed on Sunday his "horror" at an overnight arson attack on a bus by youths that left a 26-year-old woman badly burnt and in a critical state. In a message to the family of the woman, Chirac spoke of his "horror at this despicable act" and vowed that everything would be done to bring the perpetrators to justice, his office said.

Well, France President is horrified, is he really paid to be? He wants to bring the perpetrators to justice, very well, I am sure that's going to help a lot the victim. Unemployment at a rate of 10% for the past 30 years, 7 millions of poors may be more, mad policies over law enforcement and immigration control and a poor economy have finally led to a social disaster building up tensions between all communities looking for an explanation, some blame racism, some blame islamophobia and some blame aliens and their descent. So far, so good, the french President is horrified and wants to bring the perpetrators to justice, may be he should also change his policies.
