Anybody who writes a book titled; Vile France: Fear, Duplicity, Cowardice and Cheese deserves a read when he writes an essay. So why not amble over to NRO and read his essay: You All Right, Jacques? Chirac’s strategy? Just you wait! He points out that Chirac hid in the south of France when 15,000 people died due to government neglect, and using that as a matrix for decisive action, guess what he's going to do now when nobody died? As I opined in this post

You can bet the theatres, restaurants, museums, and other places for the elites are up and running.
the elites are not touched by the riots at all. There is no motivation to do anything but talk. The Bukowski poem below is as good a POV as any.
