France is in terminal decline. They cannot even muster the will to fight for France agains the islamic invasion, much less recolonize Africa.

Jean Larteguy made essentially the same observations in his novels The Centurions, The Praetorians, and The Bronze Drum. But note the equal betrayal and failure of the people of Rhodesia by the United States during the Carter administration. We're not in a very good position to be waggling our fingers at the French, considering some of our own dereliction.
