Je ne suis pas Charlie!

Anar | 13.01.2015 20:59 | Anti-militarism | Anti-racism | Repression

“Je ne suis pas Charlie – I am not Charlie!” That is the defiant note being sounded by anarchists in France in the face of the sickening wave of nationalistic reaction sparked by the Charlie Hebdo killings.

“Today, we are no more Charlie than we were yesterday, and death doesn’t transform our opponents or enemies of yesterday into our friends of today,” declares the non-fides site. [ http://www.non-fides.fr/?I-m-Not-Charlie-Go-Piss-Up-a-Rope]

“It is not our custom to cry over the graves of (even vaguely alternative or libertarian) journalists or cops, for we’ve long since recognized the media and the police as the two essential weapons of this civilizing terrorism: by manufacturing consent on the one hand, and by repression and imprisonment on the other. That is why we refuse to cry wolf with other wolves, or even with sheep.

“Those predators who exhort us to cry in unison with them today, to declare ‘Je suis Charlie’, are the same predators in suits responsible for the emergence of terrible groups and movements such as al-Quaeda or Daesh, former allies of western democracies against the previous perils before they took a central place on the podium of the geo-strategic perils of today.

“In their courts, their police stations, their prisons, these same scumbags kill, incarcerate, mutilate and sequestrate all those that don’t follow the path imposed upon them with truncheon blows and education.

“The same civilized beings that let people croak every day at their borders for trying to escape the misery and wars that they themselves and their enemies of the day created.

“We have absolutely no desire to let these same exact scumbags civilize and eradicate us any further, still less to stand shoulder to shoulder with them. Because it is against them that we want to stand shoulder to shoulder, against all those that regard us under different religious, political, communitarian, interclassist, civilizing and nationalist pretexts as pawns to be placed for sacrifice on an absurd and squalid chessboard.”

Anarchist blogger Claude Gillon, for his part, explains on his lignes de force [ https://lignesdeforce.wordpress.com/] site: “I am not Charlie because I know that the vast majority of these Charlies have never been either Mohamed or Zouad, in other words none of those hundreds of young people murdered on the estate by ‘our’ police (they come from all religions, the pigs!) paid with ‘our’ taxes.

“I am not Charlie because I refuse to cry over the Charlie Hebdo corpses alongside the same François Hollande who has just announced that the Notre-Dame-des-Landes airport will go ahead, in other words that there will be more people seriously injured by rubber bullets and no doubt more like Rémi Fraisse [killed by police in an anti-dam protest in October 2014].

“I am not Charlie because I am a revolutionary activist trying to keep informed about the state of the capitalist world in which I live. As such, I am fully aware that the country from which I have emerged is at war, even if in far-flung and shifting ‘theatres of operation’.”

The Paris Luttes site [ http://paris-luttes.info/charlie-le-bal-des-vautours-2399] questions the constant use of the word “barbarism” to describe the Islamist attackers, tracing its origins back to the idea of foreigners who speak a language that sounds like “bar-bar” to European ears, and also to the notion of a foreign race threatening to invade.

“Finally, it is more specifically the land of the Berbers, and in a wider sense the former name for North Africa (Barbary). There is a racist connotation, conscious or not, in the choice of the term ‘barbarism’ to describe the cruelty of the killing of the Charlie Hebdo journalists.”

They also challenge the assumptions behind the word “terrorism”, adding: “The first victims of this terror are racial minorities and especially those in working-class areas of the Paris region, where police pressure was immediately notched up as part of a shock strategy (the raising of the policing levels mainly affects the estates, the so-called sensitive areas).

“The attack against Charlie Hebdo is also being used as an excuse to wheel out the tired old clichés about the need for harsher sentencing (such as the death penalty) and the ‘rearming’ of the police… as if they had ever been disarmed: the way things are happening you’d think that at the moment that people declare ‘we are Charlie’, they forget that they have ever heard anyone say ’we are Rémi’.”

• The media hysteria generated by the Charlie Hebdo attack has even been used by the British state to justify increasing the fascistic militarisation of society here. SAS soldiers, in plain clothes or disguised in police uniforms, have apparently been drafted in to “rushed in to guard our streets” , as the Daily Express inevitably put it. [ http://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/551356/SAS-rushed-guard-streets-Al-Qaeda-warns-you-re-next).

Look at the facts

14.01.2015 07:57

French false flag attack, who benefits ?

It is useful to look at any so called terrorist attack and ask "who benefits ?" In the case of the attack on the journalists of the Charlie Hebdo magazine this is very important. The mainstream media and governments are working hard to convince us it is their all to convenient 'enemy', Islamist extremists'. Two convenient patsies have been set up (ID card left in car !!!) and the excuse for the attack prepared.

Once however the facts are examined we begin to see the flaws in the official story and who benefits from this attack.

The Koachi brothers have no links to Islamism, a very minor link to criminality and are both conveniently orphans with no families to defend them. Both were building careers in the music industry and were known for drinking and visiting night clubs - not the profile of a devout Muslim.

Next we must look at the Charlie Hebdo magazine, although there has been a lot of focus on its publishing of the infamous offensive Danish cartoons the principle target of its criticism over the past ten years has been its highlighting of Israel crimes in Palestine and the Occupied Territories. Israel is well known for its attacks on those who are critical of it and using false flag attacks to do that.

The two sacrificial lambs were holed up in a French warehouse (owned by a Jewish run printing company) and were executed by French commandoes to ensure the story is not questioned.

The principle benefit of this attack was Israel.

Paris Attack was an inside job, involving Mossad and French security services

14.01.2015 10:01

Indications that the Paris Attack was an inside job, involving Mossad and the French security services:

1. CBC News reported:

The journalists from Charlie Hebdo only gather in their Paris office once per week.

"A Charlie Hebdo reporter told the French newspaper Le Monde that the attackers had to have been informed that the editorial meeting was taking place, otherwise there are not many people on the premises."

Who would have informed the shooters about the meeting on that day?

2. There were police INSIDE the Charlie Hebdo offices BEFORE the attack took place.

"Two officers who had been assigned to protect editor and cartoonist Stephane Charbonnier for the past several years came down from an upper floor and intercepted the gunmen."

How is it that the police seemed so useless?

A journalist at Charlie Hebdo let the gunmen into the heavily protected offices.

Srangely, there were no armed police outside the offices.



3. There were heavily armed police in the vicinity and all over the centre of Paris.

"Outside the building, as the gunmen tried to flee in their Citroën van, three officers in a police patrol car intercepted them.

"Two suspects got out of the van...

"An officer ...ran toward the suspects. But the officer was shot and wounded by the suspects. He was executed with a shot to the head as he lay on the sidewalk."

After this policeman was 'shot' in the head with blanks, there is no sign of blood.

There are 3 different accounts of who this policeman was.

In one account he an officer who emerged from a police car.

In another account he is a policeman who came out of a police station.

And in a third account he is a policeman who was on a bicycle.

4. "After killing the officer, the gunmen returned to their car, shouting, 'We avenged the Prophet Muhammad,' the source said."

The purpose of this source would appear to be to label the gunmen as Moslems, rather than assets of Mossad and the French government.

5. Mossad and the French security services appear to have had their posters printed in advance?

Sasha Reingewirtz, 28, president of the Jewish Students Union, said of the killers:

"They want to scare French citizens."

Amchai Stein, the deputy editor of Israeli IBA Channel 1, just happened to be at the scene and has been posting photos of the shooting.

The whole purpose of the CIA-Mossad-NATO Operation Gladio was to scare the citizens of France and Europe.

..

6. In false flag attacks, the alleged terrorists allegedly leave behind identity cards or passports.

7. In false flag attacks, the authorities often give conflicting evidence.

"Two senior U.S. counter-terrorism officials told NBC News that one of the suspects in the attack had been killed and that two others were in custody."

The 'patsies' were probably in custody before the attack.

8. In false flag attacks, the security services need 'patsies'.

The French authorities have named the 'patsies' as Said Kouachi, Cherif Kouachi and Hamyd Mourad.

Several of Hamyd's school friends have taken to Twitter saying he was in class with them at the time of the attack.

nst.com.my/node/68945



The Kouachi brothers have secular (non religious) backgrounds

nytimes

Said Kouachi, 34, and his brother Cherif, 32, were orphans who were brought up in a care home in Rennes in northern France.

dailymail.

The CIA and its friends like to mind-control orphans from children's homes to turn them into useful patsies.

The brothers had menial jobs such as pizza delivery man, and shop assistant.



What was the purpose of the 7 January 2015 attack on the offices of the satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo by assets of Mossad?

Charlie Hebdo has reportedly made fun of the Mossad agent Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi (Simon Elliot).

Mossad reportedly wants revenge for:

French MPs voting in favour of a Palestinian state.

France voting against Israel at the UN.

The objective of the attack is to turn public opinion in favour of Israel.

Twelve people, 10 journalists and two policemen, were reportedly killed.

Amchai Stein, the deputy editor of Israeli IBA Channel 1, just happened to be at the scene and has been posting photos of the shooting.

"Two black-hooded men entered the building with Kalashnikovs. A few minutes later we heard lots of shots," a witness told local TV station iTele, adding that the men were then seen fleeing the building.

The attackers spoke perfect French and reportedly said that they support the CIA militia called al Qaeda.

Charlie Hebdo's editor-in-chief Gerard Biard escaped the attack because he was in London.




The Telegraph's David Blair writes that the Paris gunmen showed advanced military skills:
QuoteThe gunmen who killed 12 people in and around the office of Charlie Hebdo magazine in Paris acted with a skill and calmness that bears all the hallmarks of advanced military training."

Fishy from the begining

14.01.2015 13:05

Rather like 911, 711 and the Madrid bombings the official story of the Paris attacks began to fall apart very quickly, we are perhaps fortunate that the cabal who trying to fool the world are not that clever.

The so called 'terrorists' were patsies set up by the security services to be the fall guys and like the London 711 "bombers' were individuals with no links to radical Islam, no links to Al Quida, no links to ISIS. The faked shooting of a cop in the street is perhaps the most obvious fake, with one handed use of an AK47, no recoil on the gun and no blood after the shot, the body doesn't even move !

Next we have the "hero" of the Jewish kosher supermarket who we are asked to believe was a devout Muslim, how likely is it an Orthodox Jew would employ a Muslim to work in a Kosher shop ???

The latest development is the French police refusing to show us photos of the dead 'terrorists' because of course they were not shot by Special Forces but we poisended well in advance as the convinient bodies. The same as Osama Bin Laden (alive and well and living in Tulsa) and the 911 hijackers who are living at Andrews Air Force base.

I can answer THAT question "Oddjob"

14.01.2015 15:21

"Next we have the "hero" of the Jewish kosher supermarket who we are asked to believe was a devout Muslim, how likely is it an Orthodox Jew would employ a Muslim to work in a Kosher shop ??? "

I assume that you haven't hung around kosher markets much and therefor haven't noticed the Muslim customers if there were no halal markets in the vicinity for them to shop at.

FYI, while Jews who keep kosher can't eat meat done halal, devout Muslims can eat kosher meat (in other words. the kosher requirements satisfy the halal requirements but not the other way around). Nor is it at all unusual for persons of other religions to be employed as long as they are devout persons, persons for whom things like religious rules matter. You, presumably, are not such a person and so couldn't be trusted to see that all ritual rules were being followed.

BTW, I find these posts and comments extremely disrespectful of the Muslim fundamentalist extremists. Why do you consider them incompetent to carry out such attacks? I find it also irritating the misuse of "cui bono" arguments. Remember, when you are considering the motivations of others it is THEIR analysis of the pros and cons that matter, not yours. So it isn't YOUR belief about who benefits that matters; you have to give arguments why you believe that THEY would think that way also.

Why do you believe that Muslim fundamentalist extremists would NOT think the attacks benefit themselves? Remember you can't use arguments like "will cause backlash against Muslims in general" because from the fundamentalist point of view that could be seen as a positive development (force those moderate and secular Muslims to return to true religion ---- all out war between Islam and secularism/other (false) religion is good, G-d is with u)

@ Oddjob - ignore the troll MDN

14.01.2015 17:35

'MDN' is a regular troll here, ignore him and he will go away.

Your post is very good one and raises some very important points about the mistakes in the story we have been fed. My evidence is pointing very strongly to Israel but I do accept the likely involvment of Jewish establishment figures in France.

One thing is for sure, we have all learnt the lessons of previous Israeli false flag attacks (911 for example) and we are not so easily fooled.

my opinions

14.01.2015 21:47

Its funny how you lot believe every terrorist attack is a "false flag" operation.

The thing is: You've got a victim mentality - this is why you are at the bottom of the food chain in the first place. Its loosely related to the Stockholm syndrome.

The line is clearly drawn in my mind. Hardline Muslims say: as an "infidel", I am too be destroyed. The message is loud and clear through words and actions. Therefore, I choose the "other side". The side where we don't go around shooting / bombing and beheading other people like me.

All the evidence points to a some nutjobs, who have a history of being scum of the earth. Doesn't get much simpler. Unfortunately, the only way to deal with that is to have a security system in place to deter and combat it.

barbarism is a word

14.01.2015 22:52

the article mentions that the word "barbarism" has a racist connotation.

Actually, rather than questioning the use and coming up with a convoluted answer, you could just use something called a "Dictionary". Barbarism is a word, like any other. One definition is: "extreme cruelty or brutality." Furthermore, this is the most appropriate definition because it is the one that is used to describe an "act" (Again, listed in a dictionary - as an example usage).

If you search long enough, hard enough, and convoluted enough, you can find any answer you want. However, the "plain" answer is that they have used a word out of the dictionary that has a clear definition. You convoluted explanation can't just ignore that, because the dictionary definition will take precedence over all over arguments. Simple put: A dictionary is used to describe the meaning of words. You are unable to argue otherwise.

Errrr. no! The first victims were the people who died - dumbass. The 2nd are the families and friends of the victims.

Some racial minorities getting policed more is NO WHERE NEAR the same level of victim. It is not even in the same ballpark.

Israel is at the heart of this

15.01.2015 14:47

The 'chosen people' who control much of world banking and entertainment industries are using all their control of the major media outlets to ensure we are being force fed the "Muslim terrorist" line to ensure that

a) attention from Israel is diverted at this time

b) France is punished for its vote for Palestine at the UN

c) The problem - solution game play is reinforced to ensure the masses are controlled with additional police rescources.

Would the troll misusing my name kindly stop?

15.01.2015 16:46

This article `Je ne suis Charlie Hebdo` has to date 12 comments on it – two of them purporting to come from me, the real Paul O’Hanlon who frequently contributes to this site. I wish to make it quite clear that I did not write the two comments above which have been attributed to me using or rather misusing my name by some moronic troll.

Is this the same troll who took exception at my article on the New Year’s honours list and called himself `Hanlon O’Paul`?

He used offensive language like `P*** Off` and said I should stop posting articles on Indymedia as if he had some kind of veto on what can or cannot be posted on Indymedia and by who.

The troll who is misusing my name writes: `The mainstream media and governments are working hard to convince us it is their all to (sic) convenient 'enemy', Islamist extremists'.

My grammar is better than the troll whoever he is: “is their all to (sic) convenient `enemy`” should of course be “is their all TOO convenient `enemy`”

In the second comment which bears my name the troll writes `One thing is for sure, we have all learnt the lessons of previous Israeli false flag attacks (911 [sic] for example) and we are not so easily fooled.`

If by 911 you mean September 11th then in the US way of writing the date it would be 9/11. 911 is an emergency phone number in the US and Canada.

Mr Troll please stop misusing my name; you are a liar, a fraud and above all else a coward. Why can’t you use your real name like I do? If you must use a pseudonym then don’t use my name.


Finally, learn how to spell you twat!

What is Indymedia policy re trolls?

15.01.2015 17:30

I always use my real name and have nothing to hide. If you look at the article I wrote on the New Year's honours list you will find that very offensive comments were made at me by some troll who used expletives in his comments on my piece. He said I should stop posting articles on Indymedia. I’m sure you would agree that no troll has the right to order anyone not to post articles.


I presume he is not an editor or moderator but merely a mischief maker or `troll` as they are known. Happily the offensive comments were removed and I hoped that the troll had got the message. Sadly I find that the troll is back making comments which could be attributed to me. Suppose he starts using racist or sexist remarks and then uses my name? I will then be prevented from writing for Indymedia which perhaps is what the troll wants.

Look we all get it ok, you are upset because somebody else has used your name. That's one of the deals with open publishing and you just have to live with it.

Stop taking yourself so seriously and if you don't like it there are many other options available such as blogs, other Indy sites, your own webpage etc.

It's the genocide and war crimes I take seriously, not myself.

15.01.2015 20:41

Hello, Alan,

It’s not myself that I take seriously, I hope. I am nobody really special – I am not some important government minister or celebrity `journalist` like those employed by the mainstream media.


I feel strongly about issues which mostly relate to Western foreign policy – matters like the saturation bombing of countries like Vietnam, Korea and in more recent years the genocide by sanctions against Iraq and the never ending American attacks on one country after another after another – so many it’s difficult to keep count. Barack Obama has bombed no less than 7 countries since being awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2009.

I believe in freedom of speech and have no problems with anyone criticising my articles. I also believe in openness which is why I always use my real name and e-mail. I wouldn’t like it if someone were to write a lot of racist, reactionary rubbish and then put my name on it (would you?) as I would never write such stuff.

I think Indymedia was such a good idea when it started in 1999 and I’ve written hundreds of pieces since then. I’m just sorry more people don’t write on the website which is one of the few opportunities there are for alternative views.

Thanks for your comment and if it’s not too late,

Happy New Year to you Alan,

And to all Indymedia readers – and writers!

Stupid article

15.01.2015 23:27

This article equates the hundreds of thousands of people who protested against Islamo-Fascist and racist murderers with the tiny handful of world-leaders who inevitably step in front of the cameras to try to exploit such events. An emotionally idiotic and deeply naive approach.... profoundly insulting to the people the authors of this article would love to radicalize.... step out of your self-righteous self-isolating radical ghetto and realize that "ordinary" people oppose anti-semitic killers for reasons that have nothing to do with political leaders and "their courts, their police stations, their prison" (sic)

"Barbarian" ----- The "bar-bar" explanation is nonsense. The root of the term is beard (bearded) from which we still have "barber" in our language. This served well as a designation for "other" / "stranger" / "outsider" because the ancient Romans were clean shaven. That their culture might also have associated other negative characteristics with not shaving is beside the point. If you don't believe me, ask anybody else who was forced to learn Latin.

And "anti-zionist" --- would you care to present some reasons WHY you think these attacks were Israeli "false flag" operations. Please, not simply "they would be capable of it" and also not "they benefit from it" but why you reject to obviously simpler explanation that the attacks were exactly what they appear to be. In other words, why you don't think Islamic fundamental extremists would consider the attacks to be furthering THEIR goals and why you consider them incompetent to have carried out the attacks. Keep a couple things in mind when you do that. From the Islamic fundamentalist point of view, backlash against the moderate, more secularized Muslims in Europe not necessarily a bad thing. When you are trying to explain the actions of others you need to use THEIR take on reality and not your own. In a situation like this when you don't give REASONS for what you say it is going to come across as something other than what you intended. Makes our indymedia sites look bad.

I am being censored by an Indymedia moderator

I have posted important comments on this thread detailing the involvement of both Israel and French Jewish interests in this false flag attack and they have been hidden. My posts are well researched and detailed but despite that readers of Indymedia are not being allowed to see this vital information.

I must conclude that the collective has been compromised and an Israeli agent is at work hiding posts which are highlighting Israel military involvement in the attack, other Indymedia contributors should be aware of this.

Questions about moderation policy are dealt with via the Moderation list and comments regarding moderation will be hidden.

Because you are a regular poster who has in the past provided some good posts I will on those occasion say that of late your posts and comments have become increasingly unpleasant with multiple breaches of the Editorial Guidelines including instances of abuse and antisemitic posts which are not tolerated.

Despite what you might think the collective has not been infiltrated by the IDF !

I really don't have time your silly little lists and the rules you try to impose on the rest of us, I speak as I find and it is clear to me and many other people that the Indymedia collective is under the influence of an Israeli state agent because posts or comments that are critical of Israel and the disproportionate Jewish influence in Western society are being hidden without reason.

The Indymedia collective has a well recorded history of lying to the users of Indymedia and it seems obvious that one or more collective members are doing the same now about this issue.

This is not the only online resource I contribute to and support and I must now question if I wish to continue with my involvement.

I don't think so

It may well dent a few egos here but the Israeli government does not care a hoot about Indymedia UK !

The Israel state does I'm sure run a media influence unit but it will be focused on areas of the media where the most people are likely to see their message. This would included the BBC, the New York Times, Daily Mail, South China Morning Post, CNN etc. An activist website with a daily readership of now less than 30 people (Google stats) will not be figuring on their radar.

You got posts hidden because they broke the IMC editorial guidelines not because Mossad has infiltrated the Indymedia UK collective !

Senior politicians in France, Turkey & US call Charlie Hebdo as NATO False Flag

19.01.2015 13:10


Download: Martin Summers and Jill Goulding - mp3 12M

Turkish president, Erdogan, accuses 'the West' of being behind Charlie Hebdo attacks: former US White House presidential advisers Paul Craig Roberts says Paris attacks are false flag to bring France back into line; Israeli journalist filmed attack; Netanyahu asked not to come to Paris but became centre of attention; oil pipe line from Russia to Turkey; western intelligence services, NATO; Jihadi training camp in Ardennes. Interview with Jill Goulding, who found some secret WW2 documents of her grandfathers' in her mother's attic:

also...
WWII COPP commando training unit on Hayling Island near Chichester in Hampshire; John Ainsworth-Davis, aka. Christopher Creighton, author of 'OPJB', was trained by him, were both part of secret operations and were lied to; putting the record straight over the world war two 3,500 Canadian casualties at Dieppe – Wednesday 19th August 1942, did the German's know Canadians were coming?
Dieppe, 1942: 3,500 Canadians sacrificed as cover for MI6 agent JAD who later grabbed Nazis' looted billions?
Why was my war hero grandfather written out of history? Jill Goulding discovered an attaché case in her Hampshire loft which contained a host of secret wartime documents confirming her grandfather Harold Goulding had been the commanding officer of the Royal Navy's elite Special Boat Unit (SBU). So why did he die just months after the war, why was his DSO not recognised on his gravestone and elsewhere, and why did one of the commandos he trained at COPP headquarters, John Ainsworth-Davis, say it was lucky Harold died so soon after the war because he wouldn't have wanted to know 'we'd been lied to'. Was that lie the secret 'Operation James Bond' mission that took place in April 1945, just before the end of World War Two, to snatch Hitler's treasurer, Martin Bormann, from under the noses of the Russians so he could begin the work of running an underground Fourth Reich? The COPP commandos that took part in that top secret MI6 mission were told they were extracting Bormann, codename 'Piglet', so that the Nazis looted billions could be redistributed and returned to its rightful owners across Europe, but that was Churchill's man of mystery Desmond Morton's big lie. A body double who'd had dental surgery, of Bormann was taken on the mission and once Bormann had been identified and rescued the double was killed and left behind as 'Bormann's body. Only Morton, Ian Fleming, King George VI and Winston Churchill knew the real plan was to get Bormann out of Berlin, via Britain, to South America where he could safely begin the bureaucratic job of creating 750 or so new corporations around the world into which the laundered billions could be injected and former SS supporters in suits would be placed on the various boards. This is detailed in two books which I respectfully ask you to read and distribute 1. 'Op JB, the last great secret of world war two' by Christopher Crieghton (John Aisworth Davis was using a pen name still nervouis about the official secrets act) 2. 'Martin Bormann Nazi in Exile' by wartime CBS news correspondent Paul Manning. Jill met John Ainsworth-Davis - aka. Christopher Creighton, author of 'Op JB, the Last Great Secret of World War Two', who told her that Harold would have been upset that they were lied to about secret missions they were sent on at the end of the war. So how and why did Harold die and why has his memory been expunged from history? Anyone that knew Commander Harold Goulding, R.N. D.S.O. please contact his grand-daughter Jill

"Makes our indymedia sites look bad." -- theres the understatement of the year. This site looks bad because it draws people who are off the scale in terms of prejudice, and anything that does toe the party line is censored

Abbott's response.

The PM of Australia's response to the attack was that " these people are jealous of how wonderful we are". A clear example of how the power elite use any event to pander to those who listen to them and at the same time distort and trivialize the event.

The reports of Jewish and Muslim groups coming together to confront the extremist minority within Islam is eactly the sort of news reporting that certain Indymedia editors simply hate with a deep burning passion.
