The Upcoming French Elections is about “Israel”, not France

The recent debate between France's Unbowed leader Jean-Luc Mélenchon and far-right candidate Eric Zemmour is a perfect illustration of the absurdity of a political system that excludes the vast majority of the nation’s people from any representation.

  • The Up-coming French Election is about “Israel”, not France

Thousands of French citizens eat meals on the street outside restaurants, denied entry due to the exercise of fundamental human rights. They do not want the preventive ‘medicine’ of Big Pharma. All over France, hundreds of thousands of irate citizens are protesting against Macron’s sanitary dictatorship. We are supposed to be in the middle of one of history’s deadliest pandemics, yet the hospitals in France are firing staff en masse for not getting the jabs. We now have a situation whereby, to successfully enter a hospital, one must prove that one is not ill. We are living through a social and political catastrophe. Given the fact that a general election is coming up next year, one could expect there would be some plausible candidate denouncing this situation. 

But instead, we have Punch and Judy shows on mainstream television between the kind and sweetheart Left and the ugly, cruel Right. Each of them is the exact reflection of the other. The recent debate between France's Unbowed leader Jean-Luc Mélenchon and far-right candidate Eric Zemmour is a perfect illustration of the absurdity of a political system that excludes the vast majority of the nation’s people from any representation.

Mélenchon, a Moroccan immigrant, plays the role of the Left, and Eric Zemmour, an Algerian Jew, plays the role of the Right. It is kind of appropriate that neither men have ancestry in France. The two men are actually friends. Mélenchon attended Zemmour’s 50th anniversary party. They go back a long way because Zemmour used to support all the same causes as Mélenchon. Back in the days of President Mitterand, Zemmour played the progressive role and supported all the causes Jews tend to love: multiculturalism, homosexuality, abortion -- anything which involves wreaking a nation.

But in recent years, he has been assigned another role by the Synagogue: replacing Marine Le Pen as the candidate of the Far-Right. Why replace Marine Le Pen? Well, for one, she is incorrigibly stupid. She proved it in her 2017 presidential debate with Macron. Although Marine did everything to suck up to "Israel", the Jewish High Priests of the Republic would prefer to have one of their own as the candidate representing “France”. 

So, it now looks like Eric Zemmour is going to be the anti-immigration, racist, sexist, colonialist scumbag candidate. Zemmour has far more ability than any of the Le Pen gang. He can spar and duck and knows all the tricks of prevarication and deception. Zemmour is an "Israel"-first candidate. The Zionists know people are rebelling against liberal elitism. So, now we have a far-right candidate whose only purpose is to ensure Zionist interests are maintained, no matter who is elected. When terrorist attacks are orchestrated, he says we should follow the example of "Israel". When discussing the problem of Muslim integration, he says that Muslims should follow the example of Jews. But one of his co-religionists and "ideological enemies", Jacques Attali says that the Jews already control an important part of the French Muslim population, through finance. He thinks that it is a good thing. No doubt, Zemmour thinks it's a good thing. He is financed by some of the most promising names in French Jewish finance. 

Attali, the "left-wing" inventor of Macron, has openly admitted Zemmour as a friend of his and they often have dinner together. They probably have a good laugh about the fools who watch them debate on TV!

Some anti-vaxxers might be encouraged by the fact that Zemmour says he is against obligatory vaccines. But he is in favor of the COVID Pass. And if France follows the example of Lithuania, the Pass could eventually be a requirement to leave your home. What about Mélenchon? He is a member of the same Masonic lodge as President Macron. There is absolutely no difference between the policies of Macron and those of Mélenchon. Both are sworn to serve the globalist agenda of the New World Order. They have different roles of course. But both Mélenchon and Zemmour have been given the assignment of ensuring Macron is re-elected. The elites know that neither men have any traction among the French working class. Mélenchon is a typical Trotskyist, full of bumptious rhetoric and nauseating dishonesty. He is not popular in rural France. Zemmour’s chutzpah and elitism don’t speak much to the Yellow Vest disenfranchised working class either.

So, French nuclear submarines are rejected in favor of the Anglo-American alliance; as the national debt spirals out of control and rumors spread that France may lose its seat at the Security Council of the UN in favor of a European Union superstate, French citizens are presented with the familiar spectacle of a fake left debating a fake right. Neither of the men has anything substantial to say about anything. Mélenchon wants to close down nuclear power. 

Zemmour says Mélenchon's anti-nuclear stance would turn France into a ‘Big Lebanon’. He’s right of course. But he doesn’t challenge the entire basis of Mélenchons’ anti-nuclear nonsense. He doesn’t expose the fact that the entire anti-nuclear agenda is based on pseudoscience and green hysteria. Zemmour doesn’t want to challenge sacrosanct climate change. After all, without belief in anthropogenic destruction of the planet, there can be no centralized world dictatorship, which is what globocrats want.

The punch bag in this entire operation is the working-class Muslim, the hard-working owner of a corner shop, the taxi driver, etc. Both Zemmour and Mélenchon hate them because neither will ever allow the French people to know who is pulling the strings of the military-industrial-media intelligence complex. 

Did I say who? Cassandre Fristot, a school teacher, was arrested and charged with antisemitism on 10 August for holding up a poster in a demonstration against forced vaccination. The poster mentioned some of the culprits behind the COVID dictatorship. Some were Jewish, so the Jewish oligarchs decided to intervene.  In France, ‘who’, used in any rhetorical or politically adversarial sense, is now an anti-Semitic interrogative pronoun. And it’s pretty much the same in most 'liberal democratic' countries these days. So, the question concerning the upcoming French elections isn't who will win. The oligarchy has already won. The question is if the French people will eventually demand to know who exactly is ruining their country.
