Riots in France, Belgium, Germany

xy | 09.11.2005 10:13 | Social Struggles | World

Last nights the massive riots continued.

In France this night more than 600 cars burned - although the government has re-installed a law that was created in the 1950s to gain control over the algerian population in the french-algerian war.
This law forbidds leaving houses at night.

Last night the riots spread out to Frances´ neighbours. In Germany, Berlin, also cars burned (pics, report:  http://switzerland.indymedia.org/de/2005/11/36207.shtml) In Bremen an old school burned as well as a caravan... In Belgium also riots.

This night riots and burning cars also in Köln, Germany, and Chemnitz, Germany. In Brussels burning cars again...

No it doesn't. It allows local governments to impose curfews on specific areas. Subtle difference, but we may as well get the facts right.

But if you happen to live in one of those specific areas with a curfew then, yes, you can't leave your house at night. Not that subtle.
