“France was the first European country to join the U.S. air strikes on Islamic State in Iraq last year and is the only European country to join the U.S. in air strikes in Syria. France sent troops to Mali in January 2013 to prevent the country falling to an al-Qaeda affiliate based in the Sahel. That intervention has now been transformed into a mission covering Niger and Chad to prevent Islamic militants based in southern Libya from destabilizing the area. This isn’t the first time France’s involvement abroad has led to terrorism at home. In 1995, Algerian Islamists set off eight bombing attacks in Paris to punish France for supporting the government in that country’s civil war.”
