the thread is about the situation that is developing in france around the kidnappings in particular, and the ways in which those kidnappings are playing into (or not) the contreversies that have been generated by the law passed recently to ban the wearing of veils etc. in public schools. the situation is quite interesting--if you have anything to say about it, go ahead.
