All that's needed, that argument goes, are that the demands of today's rioters be redirected toward jihad. It's true that France has been woefully unresponsive to banlieue aspirations.

Near the film’s end, Swofford tells us, “Every war is different. Every war is the same.” The same apparently goes for war movies. Mendes...
...this magnitude to spark debate on the future of the HCC, then perhaps all is not lost.In future dealings with the HCC, we need greater transparency regarding artist selection, more complete disclosure of financial information, and broader support and input from the Harvard community at large. We need actual numbers on ticket sales, financial contracts, and other financial liabilities so that we can make educated decisions. Armed with this information, the UC can work with the HCC to plan successful events, rather than being relegated to second-guessing after the fact. Perhaps now is also an appropriate time to consider...
