Paris is trying to get the 2012 Olympics.
I hope they get it. Really.
It would be nice if the French had a vested interest in combatting Islamist terrorism. If Paris has the Olympics to defend in 7 years, all of a sudden they will be looking at the world a little differently. Threats that they ignored up until now will suddenly be real--it will be a threat to them and not just to America.
So go for it, Paris! I'm rooting for you!
