France sinks further into authoritarianism


It appears that France dangerously sinks further into authoritarianism. After Hollande's decision to bypass democratic processes in order to implement the new anti-labor measures "by all means", a new round of anti-democratic restrictions to certain groups of protesters - who apparently have nothing to do with terrorism - has started.

As the teleSUR reported:

The Paris administration has banned a dozen activists from demonstrating against the controversial labor bill Tuesday, including a photojournalist who regularly works with press agency AFP, reported local media Monday.

A police source later told AFP the prohibition was lifted once the journalist's identity was unveiled, but his lawyer Hosni Maati denied on Twitter he had any information regarding the lifting of the ban.

The French National Union of Journalists strongly condemned the decision, saying it was an unbelievable attack against democracy and freedom of press. The journalist had no criminal record; he claimed he never covered his face nor acted violently against security forces during the protests; and denounced the attempt to clamp down on freedom of expression in France when police brutality has been exposed in the media more than ever thanks to social media.

The other activists involved, mostly from the Paris Anti-fascist Action and the Independent Movement Inter-Struggles, received a formal communique prohibiting them from circulating in various Paris districts between 11 a.m. and 8 p.m., when the march was planned.

Recall that, on the occasion of the COP21 climate change summit, which took place in Paris, less than a month from the November 2015 terror attacks, the French authorities proceeded in unprecedented security measures, including activists who had nothing to do with terrorism!

In previous article it was pointed that “... how the new jihadist barbarians are useful to the elites in our era? [...] they can apply further suppression measures inside the Western societies without significant resistance, in order to justify the elimination of - the excessively advertised in the past - civil liberties. Progressively, no one would be allowed to protest against austerity in the name of security from terror attacks.

It appears that the "imaginary dialogues" turn out to be true:

We need another major event at the heart of Europe. We need to mobilize fanatic islamofascists to proceed in terror attacks. In this way people won't dare to resist against further suppression measures and they will turn to the far Right. The Left will be eliminated for good. [...] At the end of the day, we will have our desirable political puppets in power, but with much more suppression for the citizens. It will be much easier to implement the new conditions everywhere.


We will start with Italy and Spain. We will order rating agencies to attack, exclude them from markets and throw them to the ECB trap. They will be forced to take similar measures, as Greece did, in order to receive liquidity. Then, we will attack France and Germany. [...] We've already forced governments in Greece and Spain to criminalize protests.

Norman Finkelstein & Jeremy Corbyn: THE INTERVIEW ISRAEL WANT TO BAN

Double Down News In a powerful and deeply personal conversation, political scientist Dr. Norman Finkelstein sits down with MP and former UK Labour Leader Jeremy Corbyn to analyse the ongoing crisis in Gaza, Western diplomatic inaction, and the media's framing of the conflict. From evaluating ICJ proceedings to dismantling mainstream media "gatekeeper" tactics, Finkelstein and Corbyn provide an unsparing critique of current geopolitical realities and explain why Gaza has become a defining moral touchstone for a new generation. Beyond foreign policy, the pair explore the broader societal shifts shaping world politics today. Drawing on four decades of political activism, they compare today's student movement to historical anti-Apartheid and anti-Vietnam War struggles, while examining the decline of social mobility, the commercialisation of higher education, and the impact of digital media on critical thinking and long-term political engagement.

EU Is Finished & China Can Now Pull the Plug on the U.S. Economy

Glenn Diesen Yanis Varoufakis is an economist, the former Finance Minister of Greece, and the author of numerous bestselling books. Varoufakis discusses how the EU is a cartel designed by the U.S. that is no longer fit for purpose. The German economic locomotive has broken down; the EU no longer has an economic model, its foreign policy is consumed by war, and it has already become a technological colony. Varoufakis also argues that China can now pull the plug on the U.S. economy if it chooses to do so.
