Earlier this month, the U.S. State Department advised Americans against traveling in Europe, and particularly in France, due to new (but secret and vague) information about impending al-Qaida terror attacks. This was at about the same time I started reading about national strikes in France protesting the impending raise in the retirement age.
Is this a coincidence? Or is "al-Quaida terror" just the go-to shorthand for any potential civil unpleasantness at the State Department these days?
