Some things never seem to change.

As to today's riots in France, and with an eye to these last decades, it is certain that the "intifada" is now decades long, accelerating in league with the worldwide Left, and France is again in trouble as it was under the Jacobins in the 19th century and then under the Vichy in the 20th. Now the 21st century, and history "rhymes."
For any and all who do not know this, the current "republic" of France began in 1958, with a new constitution. France is that "young" and foolish.
