I don't know about torching synagogues, and that's a lousy crack, but this is one of the cohorts that helped put Hollande over the top in 2012, and if he runs again in 2017 he won't win without their support. There are a lot of North Africans in Paris, so many you don't hear much French on the Metro sometimes, and they strongly identify with African teams, so supporting ISIS post-World Cup doesn't seem all that surprising.
