...rest on his staggering electoral triumph, France's Charles de Gaulle last week moved directly to the land whose troubles brought him to power, and whose difficulties remain his biggest unsolved problem: Algeria. No ordinary colonial war, the Algerian revolt is the product of 128 years of conflict and cooperation, of intimacy and antagonism, between the French and Moslems of Algeria. The rebels who fight France hang out in Cairo, pray toward Mecca, but talk in French, and invoke the democratic ideals that France has taught them. For the story of the men and motives behind the savage struggle...

...grievances with NSA are not on policy, but on method. Does not this slapdash method detract from, if not nullify, the meaning of what NSA does? Can it really be said that American students favor the release of some obscure Algerian student leader-rioter now in jail? Sure we are for freedom, but who is the guy? Maybe he threw a bomb. But you have said you wanted him released...
