France has just had its NINTH weekend of revolutionary anti-government 'yellow vest' protests. The Arc de Triomphe in Paris was again the scene of brutal police repression as protesters were kettled, charged, water-cannoned, beaten and fired upon with everything short of live rounds. There were also significant protests against government corruption in cities large and small across the country.

SOTT.net editor Niall Bradley spoke with PressTV - one of only a handful of media outlets covering the events beyond French government handouts - about the authoritarian crackdown against pro-democracy protesters.

Were this Syria, Iran, North Korea, etc. they could expect usual "help" at this point from the West - implementation of a "no fly zone," followed by infiltrating our head-chopping jihadist buddies into the country, and then years of general mayhem until "proper" government is installed, or until the country simply becomes an open slave market and failed state - "mission accomplished." How odd that no one in Congress is calling for such an action in France?

gbossa gbossa, Macron is going to ask for ZATO army & ZATO Air-force to maybe bomb the French City & Paris to protect the Civilian ?? Why does he want to relinquish French sovereignty to Brussels with Mutti about Germany ??

Then as the snitch, snake traitor said , "“"Today Americans would be outraged if U.N. troops entered Los Angeles to restore order; tomorrow they will be grateful! " Kissinger the psycho war criminal !

Mr Reynard The dissolution and transfer of national sovereignities to opaque multinational "institutions" is the ultimate goal of the EU, and similar unions. Germany is supposed to dissolve simultaneously.

Good job Niall, interesting comments.

Great interviews. Even some in the French Government might like to find out, how what is going on in their country can be interpreted in a sensible way.

I was wondering if there in a future interview might be a possibility to improve the sound recording quality in some way, so one would not sense such a distance between Niall and the microphone, but maybe this was the backup system saving the situation.

Welcome to democracy ... do as we say or we we will attack you

We do expect democracies to use force to try and make the public bow to their will

It's only a small step, from this acknowledged behaviour, to a state killing citizens to implement desired policies ... but then people get all shy and don't want to go there or accept that fact

911 was an inside job - for enrichment and to implement policies .. hopefully this display of abuse of power will wake a lot of people up

HashAttack2 Yea, well it's called the 2nd Bill of Rights in America, and certainly the corporate communists don't want Americans seeing what happens to people who have been disarmed and when the state has not.

Of The People, by The People, for The People! " You'll know them by the fruits of their labor." Most governments around the world, working in collusion together, have created sick and toxic, dead zones of most life forms. Including economically. Naturally they've utilized brutal force against 'subversives' to do so. And still do. Which is revealing for those who care about such critical matters. Government IS Mind and Crowd Control at a base level. They consider ALL of us, their mere human livestock. To be broken in and herded by their sadistic needs/desires and brutal authority. That's why I coined the term Whores 4 War R US! No offense to actual whores.

Well said . . .

Gangs of police seems a very good description.

baron · 2019-01-17T01:39:44Z

Pretty clear that the gangs of police are attempting to herd the people in to constricted zones where they can be attacked without any means to retreat. This is clearly not happening accidentally.

Clearly, preservation of history is not what Israel is after. Which is ironic, if their goal was true.
