I've no doubt at all that there is organisation behind this, much as there was behind the Russian, French and American Revolutions. There were also groups with nefarious designs behind much of the unrest during the Industrial revolution as well. The point is that they are able to exploit the disenfranchised far more readily than they can anyone who enjoys economic well being and/or elevated social class. The underclass, proletariat, Third Estate- whatever the hell you want to call them- have always existed. Around the turn of the century here in America, it was those damned Irish and Italians- they were gonna ruin the country with their labor movements, socialist and archarchist groups. In the sixties, it was the Black Panthers, hippies and the Weathermen. The simple fact remains that France is reaping what she has sown- treat people like **** long enough, give them no financial or emotional investment in their 'country' and no hope for the future, and you've got the perfect storm brewing.
And don't think for a second it can't happen here.
