interesting that al qeada has been refigured in that way, isn't it?
the idea that the fln was in fact an organization like the french army only secret was the impetus behind a massive campaign of torture through and after 1956.
the matter only blew up politically when some pcf guy who was working in opposition to france's "police action" was tortured and the press found out about it.
i find that interesting.
sometimes parallels are direct. sometimes they're just curious and kinda ominous but you can't say why exactly.
