I imagine many here, like me, don’t even bother with 60 Minutes anymore. But on rare occasion they do something worthwhile, like this expose on the Mossad pager attack. Lots of info here I didn’t know.
Highly, highly recommended, especially for anyone interested in France, in WWII-era history, and/or in human behavior under stress.
I’m very interested in all of those things, thanks. Will check it out. Not sure if I posted here or just thought about it and didn’t, but there’s a great series called The New Look
Coco Chanel, Christian Dior navigating through the occupation. Fashion is just the setting. The real story is the pressure cooker that was occupied France. It’s very well done.
how about the head of l’oreal, schundler (sic) who was a big time funder of the Cagoule, one of the heirs to the fortune Mdme Bettencourt, was involved almost 60 years later in a financing scandal with Sarkozy, of course the grand olde man of the socialists Francois Mitterand, was a Vichy militia at some point,
Just looking at that battered foot in the video makes me wince.
That picture: ouch.

Stumbled across this while watching King of the Road. So, thanks for that.
A comment about Vichy at X reminded me of an excellent French TV series, set in the years of the Occupation and its aftermath:
A French Village
