Unprecedented, is the only word to describe the assault on the Russia Today (RT) networks abroad. The U.S. backed liberal world order has declared information jihad at a time when press freedom and truth have never been more vital. Today, let’s look at these “information terrorists” in France, and the role in the EU’s intelligentsia and ministry of truth.
Just days after RTTV announced a French version of its independent broadcasting, a media terror strike was launched by journalistic celebrities and career Russophobes in the form of an open letter to Olivier Schrameck, president of the superior Council of audiovisual (CSA). In the letter a number of liberal academics plead for the revocation of the license for newly launched RT France to operate. In reaction, Philippe Leruth, the president of the International Federation of Journalists (IFJ) told Sputnik News on Thursday that giving in to the demands of prominent French personalities to stop RT France from broadcasting would be “an insidious form of censorship.” With the much talked about “Ministry of Truth” of Germany and the EU’s version of symmetrical information warfare in mind, let’s now examine a new breed of terrorist – the liberal world orders censorship gestapo.
Some hours ago, my colleague – media sniper Marcel Sardo went behind the pay wall at Lemonde in order to see just who these truth jihadists are. According to Sardo, the first person to sign this open letter to French broadcast officials was career Russophobe, Galia Ackerman (a Masha Gessen wannabe), who just happens to be Chairwoman of the “European Forum for Ukraine.” Ackerman, who’s written a score of articles with titles like; “The Origins of the Gulag”, “The Heirs of the KGB”, “The Innocents Become Guilty”, “The Satrap of Belarus”, “A Woman in Putin’s Gulag” – must be the Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi (ISIS leader) of this censorship cell of the this new world order jihad. A Russian Jew, Ackerman is like many other unbalanced Putin haters such as Masha Gessen – a sad eyed puppet of the hegemons with no niche but the anti-Russia one to cling to.
Along with Ackerman, essayist Antoine Arjakovsky (a Judas of peace) is another Ukrainian knowledge terrorist who’s Emeritus Director of the Institute of Ecumenical Studies in Lviv. This article in the America Magazine: The Jesuit Review by Arjakovsky betrays his position as a pawn of the “order” headquartered in Kiev. Arjakovsky’s role is actually one of Judas in that he is an embedded fake disciple of the scriptures preaching world peace without Christian values. Please read his assessment of the situation in Ukraine and his solutions. The man elevates Boris Nemtsov to the position of martyr, so enough said about this jihadist under neocon killers (JUNK) academian.
Alongside Arjakovsky in signing this please for censoring thought are a slew of fairly obscure academics like; historian Wladimir Berelowitsch, Pierre Caussat, Professor of Philosophy and linguist, Ukraine specialist and Tasas Bulba revisionist groupie Iryna Dmytrychyn, and Jean Duchesne, a special advisor to the Archbishop of Paris (interesting). For finding a familiar thread that runs through this liberalist sobbing plea to French officials we can look to the works of the latter undersigned, Duchesne. In his story “The French Debate on Gay Marriage” at The Catholic Thing, the Archbishop’s helper reveals for this writer the diabolical nature of our enemy. The piece is a multifaceted lie framed to appear as if Duchesne is on the side of Catholic clergy in opposing same-sex marriage in France. Reading between the lines any writer or journalist can ferret out Duchesne’s “common sense” affirmation of gayness. I’ve no space or time to delve into this Catholic apologist (1998 on anti-Semitism deeply rooted in French Catholicism) for the church’s passive collaboration with the Vichy France Nazis of WW II here. The fact he advises the Catholic Archbishop in Paris and hates Orthodox Russia’s news pulpit RT tells me all I need know.
Marcel Sardo’s list of citizens also contains Michel Eltchaninoff is the Deputy editor of Philosophie Magazine, who authored “Inside the Mind of Vladimir Putin” without having even psychoanalyzed the Russian president on his couch. Michel Eltchaninoff, PhD, is joined by Philippe de Lara, who’s supposed to be an expert in the history of totalitarian regimes, and a Paris professor who lectures in Ukraine as well. Bernard Marchadier, a translator at UNESCO signed too, along with Hélène Sinany and professor Françoise Thom. Among these last authors of Orwellian doctrine Thom is the most interesting. Born in France, Thom spent some years in the Soviet Union. Her focus of study and authorship has been the “barbaric USSR” illustrated with her fixation on Lavrenti Beria, who was a key Stalin era figure, and the man most notorious for his role in the Massacre of Katyń during WW II. The book “Beria: the Janus of the Kremlin”, is a biography that excels in revising history, at least from what I can glean. Anyone attempting to unravel the mysteries of the man who created SMERSH, and who ran internal and external security for the Soviet Union, must have a motivation stronger than the appeal of book sales.
Agendas. All our work is about agendas and the underlying causes for study, exertion of energies, the investment of time and money. We invest in what it is we want. For these people shortly described as “media terrorists” the agenda is not hidden. Each of them has a “bone” to pick with Putin’s Russia. The case for Françoise Thom being the most transparent for me, she leverages an icon of Russophobia to perpetuate a career of lecturing to effect fear and loathing of the quintessential enemy – anyone and anything perceived as the enemy of the bourgeoisie or the western intelligentsia. And there is your truth of the matter or RTTV anywhere west of the Dnieper River. Russophobia created and perpetuated by a class of intellectual and banking elites, this is rotten core of the liberal world order. The narrative of London, Brussels, Berlin, and Washington versus Putin’s nation can be read in Françoise Thom’s “Russia Europe : the risk of restarting, from 2010. The thinly veiled deceit of the Vatican toward the Orthodox Church can be deduced from either the EU’s recent anti-propaganda doctrine, or from the appearance of the Catholic intelligentsia against any viewpoint out of Russia via RTTV. There my friends, I have laid out the asymmetric media terror network for you – those who would impress their ideas and will upon France and the world.
Are you surprised it was not the Russians?
“jihadist under neocon killers (JUNK) academian.”
Brilliant! And we could also add:

Nique la France!
I was gonna say the same thing, Nussiminen, but your acronym is also superb. It sure beats “USAID” (sic)!
Well done! Interesting profiles.
This Françoise Thom seems as pathologically obsessed with Putin as Masha Gessen and her clone Galia Ackerman…
From the little I’ve seen of his writings, Arjakovsky appears to be a mere fraud – a pawn, as Phil says, and a foolish one at that. All the rest idem.
Egalite & Reconciliation: this entire thing must surely be an RT Fance publicity stunt… https://www.egaliteetreconciliation.fr/Un-collectif-de-specialistes-de-la-Russie-exige-la-fermeture-de-Russia-Today-en-France-49028.html
In a full-blown information war if the West decides to simply cut-off RT and other Russian media from access to the Western market, what can be and should be Russia’s response be?
1) A tit-for-tat response? Some retaliatory response is essential, but should it be fully proportional? A less than full tit-for-tat response might enable Russia to keep the moral high ground – but only if the Western masses were not so brainwashed as they clearly are. So how much of response would be best remains an open question.
2) Russian media should (in my view) focus more – much, much more – on capturing the hearts and minds of peoples in Asia, Africa, and South America. That may even cause Russia to lose some of its obsession with the West and things Western. Throughout the developing world, Russian media should become an alternative to the monopolies of the Western news agencies and media. The timing seems to be right IMHO.
The more the number of people of the world who access Russian media, the lesser will the power of the Western media become. And some straight talk about the West and its hypocrisy is necessary as well. There is a time for niceties and a time for straight talk.
my understanding is that its only RT America that is feeling this attack – I watch RT on the internet – Crosstalk and others – but Peter Lavelle is IN Russia – so the censorship doesn’t affect him YET –
if the Internet gets more and more policed then its going to affect the RT internet –
I guess the cable channels in the US (and Canada?) are affected by the RT censorship – perhaps RT TV is not playing on cable channels anymore ?
I don’t have a TV so don’t know WTF is going on.
RT on US cable was not prolifically placed. Not like CGTN, China’s global presence.
It was never on Verizon or its successor Frontier. Several of the other big outlets don’t carry it.
But then, US cable has squeezed out OANN, a conservative news channel in the US. OANN has fought hard to get on all the cable outlets. They use streaming also to reach Americans. The fact is, there is no Freedom of the Press and Free Speech in the US any longer. Hasn’t been for decades.
Social Media and MSM are totally government controlled, willingly by the Billionaires who reap the rewards from the stupid Americans and from the government payoffs via contracts from NSA, CIA etc.
America as people envisioned it is gone. It’s over.
The Bill of Rights is figment of history.
The globalist elites stole the government, the media, the educational system, and the dynamic economy (first, wage growth—dead for 40+ years, then jobs.) They have rigged it all, waged wars in our name and now attempt global domination through hegemony.
So, the battle against RT is a minor skirmish.
What matters is the war in Donbass, the war in Syria (certain for one more big year) and the attempt to start a war in North Korea).
These are the test labs for Russia and China. They must defeat (finish) the US in these conflicts. Ukraine won’t collapse. It must be fractured. Syria is not going to get one minute of peace. The US-Israel-Jordan-SA manipulations must be blown up.
And North Korea-South Korea must be frozen. The Peninsula has to have development not war.
All very hard tasks. And all much larger than the RT issue. Demonization of Russia has become the norm throughout the West.
RT is available on Shaw Cable (Canada) on channel 505. It is not part of any bundle, so it it listed on the bill as a separate item ($3.00 a month).
As I am typing this, Watching the Hawks ended and America’s Lawyer started. Both very, very American shows. American hosts, American topics. The American Lawyer talks about dangerous pesticides. No wonder RT is targeted.
When we are talking about RT France, a link should be provided.

As for france24, what is the difference? French politics is not innocent.
‘…Jean Duchesne, a special advisor to the Archbishop of Paris …’
and
‘Along with Ackerman, essayist Antoine Arjakovsky (a Judas of peace) is another Ukrainian knowledge terrorist who’s Emeritus Director of the Institute of Ecumenical Studies in Lviv. This article in the America Magazine: The Jesuit Review’
seems the Catholics don’t want a multipolar world – I have heard that the Catholics are behind Agenda 21
thanks for the interesting article Phil, and another recurring name in this is Ukraine – what a hot bed of problems that place is – so very sad really – how has it happened that all the Janus-es of the Slav world are there – well, I guess not all – but many – here in Canada too – the Foreign minister of Canada is a Russophobic Ukrainian
Actually come to think of it – Canadians should start shipping Ukrainians back to their homeland like Trump is shipping Mexicans back – then that b*** (Canadian FM) would be on board the ship.
Catholicism is a part of the insideous new world order…. Notice how all prominent elected run to Rome to literally kiss this protector of child abusers hand….
The aim is chaos …… Isnt that what we are seeing everywhere? Chaos …. New world order is chaos so the .01% can live off the fat of a polluted earth with a global enslaved populations struggling to survive on reduced wages and rising national and private debt s….. with so much infighting and TV muppet shows plus endless world cups to distract the mass s…. Gay parades rights movements and a myriad of other causes are part of that distracting program. All under minding our moral foundations ….. and societal cohesion.
Catholicism can be academically traced back to Baal the stone god of satanic worship…. Know what you are following… many wolf s in sheep s clothing.
insideous stuff
Ross
Ah… right on time, we get the typical conspiracy theory about Christ’s Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church. Where such “academic research” is found to be nothing more than lazy passing comparisons pointing out surface level similarities between one thing and another thing and then claiming direct lineage.
Example:
-The Hindus had holy books and scriptures.
-The Christians have holy books and scriptures.
Conclusion: Christianity can be academically traced back to the Vedic Traditions and idolatry of Hinduism.
Yes indeed, there are wolves in sheep’s clothing, some of them are even baptized Catholics or Catholic priests themselves, maybe even the current Pope… But there’s no more pathetic a sight than the scavenging coyotes of fringe Protestants claiming occult knowledge of the institutions that preceded them; where apparently Jesus Christ took a vacation for 1,500 years until the Holy Spirit in a fit of schizophrenia raised up several thousand ‘churches’ to pick up where He left off. Then back it with ‘academic research’ that the Catholic Church stole rituals from the cult of Baal, when ironically enough God made the Israelites worship Him in precisely the same way. But someone has to cook up some ridiculous explanation to state why they do not possess the rituals and Holy Orders that every Apostolic Church from the Catholics to the Orthodox do in succession from the Temple of Jerusalem.
There are probably ‘Catholics’ behind Agenda 21 if by that you mean they were baptized Catholics, and then never set foot into a Church again except for political expediency. In that case it would be as stupid to state that Catholics are behind Agenda 21, as it would be to say the Russian Orthodox is behind Agenda 21, or the Protestant Evangelicals are behind Agenda 21 because one would find either some representation therein.
That said, recently, following the election of Pope Francis under dubious circumstances involving Benedict XVI’s ‘partial’ abdication and behind the scenes manoeuvres by the Sanct Gallen Mafia, that the institutions of the Catholic Church are now being heavily infiltrated and co-opted for Globalist purposes.
It should not surprise any Catholic that liberal modernist scum occupies places in Catholic media whose sole purpose is to act as PR mouthpieces and whose training and formation comes from secularist institutions who grant them the honour of ‘professionals.’
The Catholic Church has been infiltrated by agents throughout the past decades much like the KGB infiltrated the Russian Orthodox. Many members are still there. That’s not a knock against either institution, that’s just the reality of the situation.
Christ stated that enemies would sow bad seed amongst the good seed, and that both would have to grow up together until the time that they shall be separated. This is why God chose even to include Judas Iscariot amongst the ranks of His Apostles. You think God didn’t know who Judas was or what he’d do?
The lesson is for us to learn and discern. Betrayals and scandal from within the ranks are part and parcel of the true faith.
RT France already managed to get more than 750.000 ‘likes’ on his facebook page,not too bad for a country of 68 millions.Major mainstream media outlets sometimes have less even much less.And if you add the people who go straight on their website(via their favorites)it must be a total of people of around 1 million.If you compare to RT International and RT USA it is proportionnaly much more(they reach around 3.5 millions viewers).
Not to forget Sputnik France.They (RT F)already managed to attract some names like J Sapir and a former mainstream ‘star’JM Sylvestre.More should follow,they just wait a bit to see the reactions.
Le Monde paper(a former quality paper 20 years ago with 500.000 readers),is like all French papers(believe it or not financed with state money as well at least in part,called ‘aide à la presse’).All medias are in that slave/master situation,they can not go against Macron and the UE/NATO concensus.Only alternative media receive no state money.And these idiots(msm) dare to call RT fr a ‘state/Kremlin’media.What a joke.State tv like France television(6 channels),France 24,RFI,Radio France(8 channels) and even TV5 are all state owned and the official voice of the government like BBC or ARD/ZDF in Germany,RAI in Italy etc…AFP agence france presse,is a DGSE linked service.Amost all their international correspondents are intelligence officers.ARTE is controlled by anti Russia pro ukrop BHL Bernard Henry Levy also active at Le Monde and invited on all ‘news channels’ on an almost daily basis.France is fully controlled by the Anglozio lobby(crif)and also have a bunch of local neocons.But people are waking up slowly,MSM circulation nrs are catastrophics and collapsing.More and more people I know don’t even have a tv at home anymore.Tired of this neverending lies and stupid entertainment programs as well.
The situation is quiet the same in Belgium an Switzerland,maybe a bit less neocon and anglozio oriented?The situation is totally different in french speaking Africa,where Russian(in French)media have a good audience,just read the comments below the RT articles to confirm that fact.Lot of Middle Eastern people follow the Syria conflict and the Jerusalem story(Iran,Hezbollah,N Korea…).To have a different voice.
What’s the wonder? France is the most judaized country in the world, besides being a pioneer of “Russophobia”, inventing all the anti-Russian tropes, slanders and slogans which characterize it and remaining stuck with them (subsumed to the general slogans of “threat to ‘liberal’ – i.e. masonic – Europe” and “European crusade against Russia” – which was nevertheless a much older Catholic idea).
Antoine Arjakovsky, the fake Orthodox champion of ‘ecumenism’, is a liar like all the ‘Jesuits’ who inform his thinking. He has that very special view of Russia suppurated in France (like the infamous Polish-Napoleonic forgery, the ‘Testament of Peter the Great’) which has only a nominal relation with the reality of Russian Orthodoxy and Russian history. His grand mother was the assistant of Nicholas Berdiaev, the anti-clerical secret Bolshevik ‘agent of influence’ (“Confessor’ in the files of the Foreign Section of OGPU), inventor of the “Russian idea”, of the “Russian messianism”, in order to exonerate the international Bolsheviks and the Comintern (“The Third International is not international, but a Russian national idea”, he wrote) of their abominable crimes and calling for support of the Soviet Union (“on December 3, 1944, a strange event took place in newly liberated Paris. Nikolai Berdyaev, a religious philosopher and the best-known Russian émigré intellectual of his time, made a speech before a [baffled] audience of elderly Russian émigrés in support of the Soviet Union!”).
You won’t be surprised either that his grand father, the Fr. Dimitri Klepinin was ‘sanctified’ by the Patriarch of Constantinople, along with Mother Maria Skobtsova (a very ‘unconventional’ nun), for ‘helping Jews’ (mostly Russian, of course) by forging Baptism certificates, during the ‘Vichy era’, and proclaimed ‘Righteous Among The Nations’ by Yad Vashem! Oh, and they died in the German camps! Antoine describes his emotion at the tree planted at Yad Vashem in memory of his ‘martyr’ grand father.
Fr. Dimitri’s mother Sophia was a cousin of Zinaida Gippius, the wife of Dimitry Merezhkovsky, the famous ‘Silver Age’ couple of ardent ‘prophets’ of ‘Holy Ghost’s Kingdom Come’ idea, a ‘neo-Christianity’ opposed to the ‘official’ -Tsarist – Orthodox Church. Merezhkovsky is famous for his view of Peter the Great as the ’embodied Antichrist’, view that he shared with the ‘raskolniki’ (much loved as the precursors of Bolshevism). He ‘discovered’ the “anti-Christian nature of the Russian monarchy.” and saw the 1905 Revolution as a prelude for some kind of a religious upheaval he thought himself to be a prophet of. The writer became an ardent supporter of the civil unrest, writing pro-revolutionary verse, organizing protest parties for students. In 1913 his former friend Vasily Rozanov openly accused him of having ties with the “terrorist underground” and, as he put it, “trying to sell Motherland to Jews.”
Can’t figure out what side you’re on. You seem all over the place. Pro-Russian and anti-Bolshevik, anti-Soviet, is it? I’ll have you know, Anti-Soviet = Anti-Russian. The Great October Socialist Revolution was the choice of the Russian people and the only way to save the country at the time. Berdiaev invented “Russian messianism”? What about Dostoevsky? Heard of him? He did not invent it either. The idea of Russian messianism and Russia are a package. The idea came with the country when it was born.
The “Great” October Revolution saved the country from… Russians.
The defense of Christianity by the Russian Tsars was not couched on any ‘messianic’ terms, but on the Christian Roman Empire ‘idea’. Russia was not the “Third Rome” (that was a ‘messianic’ idea of western origin which the Tsars and the Church rejected), but still the “second” of which Russia was the legitimate inheritor. Defense of Christendom was incumbent on the successors of the Roman Emperors, which the Russian sovereigns became after the desecration of Tsargrad.
“Waging war neither for worldly advantages nor for conquests, but for a solely Christian purpose, must I be alone to fight under the banner of the Holy Cross and to see the others, who call themselves Christians, all unite around the Crescent to combat Christendom? … now nothing is left to me, but to fight, to win, or to perish with honor, as a martyr of our holy faith, and when I say this I declare it in the name of all Russia.” (Tsar Nicholas I on the Crimean War).
Certainly another organised cell. They want armageddon these folks. They seek their messiah. He melts mountains and boils the seas. As you can imagine this is something joyous to dwell on. They are waiting for a red heifer. I bet now you are waiting for a red heifer too. That’s the thing about red heifers.
That temple mt will sport a third temple in my lifetime i think. Some say they have 200 nukes but I’ve been hearing that for years. Some say they are all pointed at Iran which seems strangely naive. Luckily Merkin provided a sub for each continent.
This reaction in France was to be expected. France has an unfortunate history, it being a history of quarrels, religious wars and revolutions. Unity was never a strong point in France. The French Revolution of 1789 was a Rothschild’s operation, where the monarchy was removed and a republic introduced, with one vital point: Under the monarchy the finances were in Government hands, while under the republic they were in the hands of private bankers, who have complete influence over the country. France has been a happy hunting ground for the Rothschild’s since 1789. The election of Macron is proof of this. Incredible that a Rothschild’s banker ends up as “President” of France, all the more so since he is more interested in the EU than in France.
The current assault against RT in France is nothing more than a reaction of the banker controlled French elite, who are terrified that their monopoly of the truth will be challenged and that people will start asking questions. RT differs from the established media because it covers those topics which the media either ignores, or else misrepresents, this being done intentionally. For example, the elite are now terrified if RT will cover the immigration question in Europe, namely why so many “migrants” and false “refugees” were accepted. The aim, ofcourse, is to subvert the sovereign status of European states and make the EU stronger, especially private bankers who control the EU through the EU Central bank.
Its going to be interesting to see what the future holds for RT in France.
I have ceased reading RT website because of Comment moderation. I have therefore lost touch with Russia. I find this most sad. In any event I hope I am not a media terrorist. It seems no good thing to me to try to stop RT in France even though I have taken a great blow to my commentary and my self-esteem has been hit pretty hard.
once again we see the Jewish (Anglo/Zionist. Mod) hands behind all the manipulations and the promotion of lies. Anti-Semitism? No. Just facts!
and I quote from above …..
“Agendas. All our work is about agendas and the underlying causes for study, exertion of energies, the investment of time and money. We invest in what it is we want. For these people shortly described as “media terrorists” the agenda is not hidden…….”
My post grad years 1990 s when a mature student revealed many academics including my supervisor who ” preached” jaundiced views of changing world order… So subjective – so still cold war warriors.
But Post 1989 it began to become easier to debunk their position…. Today they are in my view all wrong in their views even when challenged ……
except Dr Kate Dews Peace studies Abolition Caucus. I commend her for her diligence fighting back against a stubborn academic department.
We all today must be so discerning about the crap called news and academic work. It has become so bad its sad rubbish to read to view or listen to their propaganda….. mostly childish disconnected crap! Oh how far has western media fallen – ministries of miss truths everywhere… all repeating the same mantra in many languages with no critical analysis ….
Thanks again Saker for yet an other mind alerting expose….
Ross
And thanks for all the kind words. Readers here are by far the most intelligent and fair-minded I’ve witnessed. This is as it should be, of course. As for RT France and these old school, newly revealed terrorists – in the end, they just get people killed.
The academians start their careers in search of a niche, fellowships, and that special cabal or benefactor that will support their form of mediocrity. I have the worst taste in my mouth for them, the pseudo-scientists in love with their scholarly papers and hollow accolades. They do not even bother to examine variables beyond those that support their hypotheses.The world of them in between Gessen and the idiot blogger Navalny, Pussy Riot, Soros, my God I can put names to the face of our misery.
You guys are like me, The Saker himself, people forced into dedicating time to beating the hell out of the bad ones. If only more people would get off the fence and join us. Punishing evil is the only surefire way of redeeming the world – as we’ve seen, hugging and catering to whims and whining only takes us farther into an abysmal mess.
Thanks for all your efforts. Together I know we make a difference.
Thank you for the article….could there be ways to expose these peoples one wonders….illicit gai s…not paying taxes maybe… false claims in work they do….do they deserve a propornot website of their own……a big list of dubious persons….is there someone brave enough to make an exlose documentary…but where would it be shown…..the increasing stranglehold of youtube and facebook…google…how is it possible to set up alternative media/tv channels to be in the foreground of accessibility, not as some kind of darkweb…….
Exactly JJ. Support, loyal readers/viewers/listeners … we have to set up other “gardens” for those interested to get the real messages. VK will not cut it. I think Mr. Putin and those in support of the other message should invest in a real alternative social network.
My cafe chat re French Intellectuals: Already in the 1960s I read in a French newspaper that “Paris is now only a museum city, a stop on the tourist circuit”. Since then I have come across nothing to contradict this view, even though I attended the French Cultural Centre and read their magazines of Litirature and Philosophy. If any Saker reader knows different, kindly reply. I am chatting about contemporory French culture, not their politics which have been putrid ever since Sarkozy ousted Chirac over Chirac’s refusal to join the Anglo-Zio-Capitalist “Coalition of the Killing” in 2003 — the last independent policy by a French president, his successors have been mere tools of the AZC. But France in the past has produced great thinkers even under bad regimes — why the present apparent lack?
Who said, “I do not agree with what you say, but I will fight to the death for your right to say it”? Can`t have been a representative of the French Intelligentsia.
Make that “I do not agree with what you say, and I will fight for my right to silence you forever” and you have the very personification of the French “intelligentsia” in all its magnificent glory: BHL.
Hey Guys, Sakerites. I just came across this . Check it out. These nefarious folks in Washington and Tel Aviv are losing to the Russo-Sino-Iranian eastern alliance.

With this bit of news, and other bits here and there, its clear a world war is coming. The U.S. will initiate a draft, where they will draft into war all the jail/prison population that has mushroomed out of control in the U.S., and also draft the inner city Hispanic and black gang members and gang bangers too. That way they will hit two birds with one stone. They will prove useless, but better gentiles die for the Zionist/Judiac quest for world domination than Jews. Onward Christian soldiers, go fight and die for Zionism and Pax Judiaica.
Anything that prevents Germany from having good relations with Eastern Europe benefits both France and the Anglo-American-Zionist Empire. The French will do anything to prevent trade and good relations between Germany and Russia. They also need to keep encouraging Poland to hate Russia. France can only be strong when Germany is weak. Conversely, France would be best friends with Russia if it were in Russia’s best interest to isolate and destroy Germany. We do have a precedent: The French are still celebrating the destruction of Austia-Hungary after WW I……
France’s intelligentsia, up until now has not done them much Good, they have recently had four suicide plots in the name of Islamic terror Via MOSSAD, and has not yet Rumbled it, and the director of it was walking in Plain Site, yes the One And Only BENJAMIN NETANYAHU, and French Police Commissioner Was murdered Because he Knew The Score. I Suggest they best find out first just who is the Real Enemy.
I think, as a french resident and “sakerite-friendly “, that those self-proclaimed “russia specialists ” only represent themselves and much less “french intelligentsia”, it would be a bad french bashing to pretend that !
Friendship between France and Russia has very deep and resistant roots . Let me cite some other names :
Thierry Mariani who is member of parliament (LR) uses to recall that Russia saved France Three time :
at the Vienne Treaty (1815) where the tsar did not allow France to be carved into two parts which was what England and Austria wanted , at the Verdun Battle in 1917 where Russia attacked on the east front at the most critical time where the defenses were on the brink of rupture and forced germans to redeploy troops , and of course in the great patriotic war where the Wehrmacht was mainly destroyed by russian heroism , at among others : Stalingrad, Koursk , on the dniepr , etc …
France intelligentsia had for a long time entirely been dominated intellectualy by french communist party which counted in its ranks Aragon , Sartre, Picasso and all the people who counted most at the time and cherished very much frienship with communist USSR . Let me add that when tchernobyl meltdown occured , West Europe was saved from radioactive catastrophic contamination by thousands of russians “liquidators” who sacrificed their lives and their health and saved the plant from explosion in the atmosphere and west europe in the same time ? How is it possible for informed people not to be grateful toward them ?
If you search for a cultural acknowledgement of what the russians brought to european culture , go to the académie française site and read the reception speech of Dominique Fernandez to the russian -born
writer Andrei Makine . If you search for well understood geostrategic french interests you will find for instance Dominique de Margerie , Total Group CEO , who died in a supposed plane accident in moscow airport , bringing french logging and energy technology to help in the exploitation of Yamal peninsula gaz site
which has just been inaugurated by president Putin recently. A liquefied gaz ship has been named in his honor with big moustaches painted on it .
french catholicism has never been recently in war with orthodox countries contrarily to italian’s one . Italy mainly fought orthodox countries during WW II : Ethiopia , Serbia , Greece and mainly Russia and of course that is a huge memory problem which remains to settle to make really peace between orthodox and catholic churches . Recently the cuban meeting between the Moscow patriarch and the Pope has been a sign that some progresses have been met at least from the russian point of view , for instance on the ukrainian conflict . So Mr Duchesne doest not represent the opinion of the archbishop of Paris who has just been changed recently , by the way .
French people in a recent inquiry feel manipulated at 66 -80 % by their MSM which are owned by ten oligarchs ( like almost everywhere else …)
https://www.les-crises.fr/russeurope-en-exil-le-pluralisme-voila-lennemi-par-jacques-sapir/#_ftn2
So let me think that your conclusion that those who signed this text represent french intelligentsia and french people is totally irrelevant : they only represent themselves !
What about the “Légion des Volontaires Français contre le Bolchévisme”, which became the “33 Waffen-Grenadier-Division der SS “Charlemagne”? They fought in Russia since October 1941 and distinguished themselves in the defense of Berlin in 1945.
that’s true but they were volunteers and never were more than under 6000 compared with 230 000 italians soldiers that were engaged in russia by the italian fascist regime . russians like to remember also the sixty members of Normandie Niemen squad who at the opposite were given by de Gaulle and fought alongside with them against the luftwaffe .
As a french citizen , let me say that we were many to be deeply ashamed by the Hollande’s governement not to send high level officials to represent france at the 70th anniversary of the victory upon nazism on May 8th 2015.as if russians who gave their life for our freedom yesterday were to be punished for the supposed misdeeds of the present time .you can fight evil , but what can you do against incompetence ?
the problem of France today is with the destruction of its school and culture and with incompetence of its elites .that’s the heart of our true national drama .
The real drama of France was understood by Drumont hundred years ago. Earlier by Gougenot des Mousseaux

Precious little snowflakes aren’t they? More smoke and mirrors from the establishment cronies and paid prattlers of the French elite. Emile Zola would be laughing his head of at their pathetic whining. I guess all the French literati are good for these days is writing praise for the murdering of Qaddafi and the annihilation of Libyan civil society. Come on France its time to pay reparations to the Libyan people and stop trying to avoid and obscure your culpability. RT France might even run a story or two on that subject and then they’ll quake and squeal.
