Collaborators. Lots of them. After the war, maybe 50,000. During the war, hard to count. Nazis too, of course, but that was a lot riskier. The Nazis were not that interest in French-French killings. That was for les flics. Attacks in the occupation forces were another matter and could lead of mass shootings of hostages. And did.

All resistance movements (like the Iraqi resistance) targets collaborators.) I read a quote from a Jewish resistance fighter in Eastern Europe that they would danvce on the graves of collaborators they'd killed.

Also, they wore berets and striped shirts, drank wine, sipped espresso, read Sartre over checked tables in smoky cafes, listened Le Hot Club of France with Django Rheinhardt on guitar as well as Edith Piaf, and had affairs with each others wives and girlfriends, Being French and all.
