| | FT.com / Home UK - French unrest is no May 1968, says Danny the Red |
 | | The protests of 1968 were a reaction against the repressive moral standards of an older generation and eventually led to the resignation of President Charles de Gaulle. | | | Mr Cohn-Bendit, now a prominent Green who led protesters to the barricades in May 1968, told the Financial Times the movement he incarnated was "offensive" in a fight for "more liberty". | | | The wave of demonstrations and riots sweeping France is the antithesis of the protests of May 1968, according to Daniel Cohn-Bendit, the leader of the upheavals of four decades ago. |

| | Seven Days in May (1964) |
| | Positing that the United States military presents a potentially greater threat to liberty than the Soviet regime might have made for interesting debate during Cold War times, but in the post-Cold War era it rings dated and hollow. | | | People have overinflated the braggadocio of General Curtis LeMay way too much in assessing the attitudes of America's military during this period and to me, "Seven Days In May" ultimately puts forth a dangerous idea that only our military stood in the way of reaching an earlier accomodation with the Soviet Union. | | | I will note that the movie version skewers itself toward the philosophy of President Jordan Lyman (Frederic March) much more than the novel does, because the novel has an interesting wrinkle that forces one to think harder about the motives of General Scott. |
