...Louvre, in the Louvre - in the vaulted Galerie Daru at the bottom of the stairs leading up to the Winged Victory of Samothrace. There, seated at two immense mirrored tables decorated with yellow orchids - and surrounded by 2,000-year-old statues of Roman emperors, including a naked Julius Caesar - the guests dined on asparagus soufflé and veal noisettes before the grand finale: a charity auction and a Duran Duran concert held under the Louvre's landmark glass pyramid.

Today, Arab and African exiles across Europe imagine a bloody vengeance against their leaders, those tribal Macbeths and oil-rich Caesars. As Kenya descended into violence last January, Leo, a Rwandan exile in London, rang me. One day, he said, the citizenry will bear this no longer, just like the citizens of 15th century England who rebelled against...
