"The riots afforded disconcerting proof of the F.L.N.'s hold over France's Algerian population. Since 1947, when they were allowed to enter France freely as full citizens, they have flooded into the country in what French sociologists call 'the immigration of hunger.' Now 350,000 strong (200,000 in Paris alone), they are a vital segment of the labor force, do most of France's back-breaking labor from road building to stevedoring. They live in slums but earn union-scale wages—dazzling by Arab standards. As a result, they not only support one-fifth of all Algerian families, but bankroll the F.L.N. itself. " Oct. 27, 1961

I believe that this is recognised and France has recognised this also. France has also made peace with those that matter. Like Germany. Its open history, anyone can read about it, it is taught in schools in the west, information accessible from libraries in the west.
