Victory of the Nigerien people and the African peoples

Sunday September 24 is certainly a historic date because it corresponds to the departure of French troops from Niger. After resisting the decision of the Nigerian authorities for a month, the French president finally announced the departure of the ambassador and French troops.


Niger authorities commented this announcement, saying “This Sunday, we celebrate a new step towards the sovereignty of Niger,” And indeed it's a huge step.

It is also a victory for the African people who have just obtained the departure of French troops from Niger, after their departure from Mali and Burkina Faso. 


Of course everything is not over, far from it. More than 1,000 American soldiers are still in Niger, while French soldiers continue to be stationed in Chad (*) (950), Ivory Coast (900), Senegal (300), Gabon (350), and Djibouti (1500).


Much more, African leaders (present and future) have an immense task in front of them to ensure a real stability of their countries as well as to design and implement an authentic economic development that will allow the African people to ensure their independence and to allow them to benefit from their immense natural resources.


History is happening before our eyes.

(*) Just for the anecdote and the sake of History, there is talk that French troops will leave Niger to settle... in Chad, a country led by President Mahamat Idriss Déby who "succeeded" "democratically" his father Idriss Deby !, the latter having reigned over Chad for 30 years, all thanks to the protection of France which loudly proclaim its support for "democracy"! Beautiful democracy indeed!

France: results and challenges

The New Popular Front won 182 seats in the snap parliamentary elections, making it the largest group in the French National Assembly, which has 577 seats. This is obviously a reason for immense satisfaction and relief for millions of French people who were enduring the anti-social policies of Macron's regime. It is also an open opportunity for all those who want real change. That said, and without minimizing the results obtained, it must be remembered that the new Popular Front only secured 31.2% of the seats in the National Assembly and that the percentage of French people who voted for it represents only 25.1% of the votes. In comparison, the Popular Front of 1936 obtained 63.5% of the seats and 57.8% of the French voted for it! This means that the New Popular Front is far behind the 1936 performance. But all this does not take away from the immense success achieved this week. It simply means that the New Front has enormous task to perform to convince more French people of the ne...

Justice on the Side of the Palestinian People

July 19, 2024, marks a monumental victory for justice, which has clearly sided with the rights of the Palestinian people. The International Court of Justice (ICJ) issued an opinion declaring that Israel's occupation of Palestinian territories is illegal. The court demanded that all states take action to end this occupation and that Israel pay reparations to Palestinians who have suffered due to this situation. It is important to note that this opinion follows a recent decision by the Court requiring Israel to cease any actions in Gaza that could constitute genocide. This ICJ opinion will strengthen international pressure on Israel. Although it will take time, just like the end of apartheid in South Africa, there is no doubt that justice will prevail and that Palestinians will regain their right to self-determination.

"Hamas cannot be destroyed" because "it is an idea." !!

No, this is not a statement from Hamas, but from Daniel Hagari, the spokesperson for the Zionist army! It took 37,000 deaths and the destruction of an entire territory for the Zionist army to recognize this!  Why did it take 37,000 deaths to acknowledge this? Because Israel is an occupying army, and colonial occupying armies do not understand that a colonized people can resist.  Why also this "idea"? For a simple reason: Palestine was colonized and its people had only one choice, which was to resist the occupier.  Similarly, the Zionist entity reveals itself for what it is: Europeans who came to colonize a territory, as has been done for centuries. The European settlers who created the Zionist movement are Ashkenazi Jews who have no connection to Palestine. They are Russians, Poles, Belarusians, Austrians, Romanians, etc. The Zionist movement is a racist movement, just like Nazism: it presumes a "pure race."  The Jewish religion was born in Palestine, and people con...
