    more than half of the players in Franc's national soccer team were and are Muslims. Your ignorant statement about French Muslims is slightly off the chart. but don't worry ...just slightly off the chart....

      Car insurance is global too. Maybe their dictator will not have to worry about Israel when he can self ignite his own country.

      He really cannot blame Israel for the cars as much as he would like.

      They are not engineers only middlemen.

      That should certainly make for some interesting insurance claims. Why aren't they blaming this on the Great Satan?

            So back to the story. Why do the rest of the cars escape the firey death. It's not limited to one car (or are they similar). Interesting. Maybe an aftermarket problem or using drip gas etc. In confirming an earlier comment, my sister had a Japanese made something sedan that burned, from a backfire etc. I guess it could be something as simple as a bad injector fitting spraying fuel. that can go fast.

              I thought it was normal for cars to blow up in that part of the world. I hear about it everyday!!

              (end sarcasm)
