Two open letters warning of a potential civil war have once again put Islam at the centre of the political agenda in France. Joseph Downing argues that instead of viewing French Muslims as a unique threat to the security of the country, politicians and the armed forces would be better served by focusing on France’s secular security problems.

Two open letters discussing the possibility of civil war in France have sent shockwaves through Europe. The letters, written first by retired generals and then by anonymous serving soldiers, have raised questions about whether French President Emmanuel Macron is losing control of the country’s military.Despite the furore, there are few reasons to worry about the French military. The rank and file remain apolitical and loyal to their jobs. Indeed, neither letter specified that the military either wanted or would initiate a civil war, but only that it stood ready to intervene to protect the integrity of France should widespread unrest occur.Rather, these remarkable interventions told us more about the historical context of the French armed forces, their difficult relationship with civilian rule, and the dangers of instrumentalising Islam in political discourses at the cost of tackling secular security problems.
