We didn't win last time. All we got was a 25 year armistice. But some seem to believe that a permanent victory was earned - that the right wing is operating fundamentally in good faith and with respect for the postwar social contract. Daniel Cohen-Bendit appears to be among them.

That belief is a pernicious fantasy. And whatever the merits of the regionalist vs. centralist debate on the French left (of which I am ignorant and thus reserve judgment) redstar is absolutely both right and correct to call out DCB for propagating pernicious fantasies.
