#1 Would staking out the popcorn franchise for this be in bad taste?

#2 The French are digging themselves a really deep hole in Sub-Saharan Africa right now, and will soon begin to reap what they've sown. The backlash against Muslim guerilla movements moving down from the north all across Sub-Saharan Africa may be the only thing that unites these very diverse peoples under a common leadership. France's support and encouragement of the Muslims is obvious, and unwanted. I expect to see larger and larger numbers of French killed - both military and their former French Colonial civilians.

Unfortunately a large number of British currently living in THEIR former colonies are following the same game plan. They'll probably reap the same reward.
