I still recall the rage I felt after finding out the details of this attack as a teenager, that no one even has the gumption to face this man's daughter speaks volumes.
The actions of France are unforgivable.
This documentary was both honest and heartfelt and I recommend it to anyone wishing to know about this shameful attack on another sovereign nation.
