If you go to the basement of the Louvre you can see the impressive medieval stone foundations, from when the Louvre was a fortress. These hidden fortifications are to me a great metaphor for why ISIS can’t win against France: they’re attacking the bits they can see, bits that look soft and decadent, but it is built on a stone fortress.
