Compare and Contrast?

Hmm, the closest analogy I can come up with is maybe:

CBS correspondent in DC : Student Protester in Iran :: Nanterre in 68 : Prague Spring?

I know it's not quite apt, so if anyone can come up with something better, please let me know.

Actually, it occurred to me - as frivolous and immature as I do see a lot of 68ers as being, there *were* actual causes for grievance or protest in Mai 68. When compared to their Czech counterparts, though, the French students come across as incredibly immature.

So, need to come up with a better analogue. Maybe

CBS correspondent in DC : Student Protester in Iran :: Nero Fiddling : Rome Burning would be better.
