France Forfeits Its Own Values - NYTimes.com

I don't quite get Robert Zaretsky's objection to the French government's stripping citizenship from dual citizens "found guilty of acts of terrorism".
Guilty. Of acts of terrorism. That is to say, found guilty of acts intended to mass murder their innocent compatriots. Well, compatriot no more, Muhammad. Back to Syria with you.
I'm not alone in finding Zaretsky's views strange. As he says himself in the article below "an overwhelming majority of French citizens [are] in favor of such a law".
Vive la France. Vive les francais non terroristes. (or something).
