He has called parliamentary snap elections, dissolving the Assemblée Nationale in an act of blind, puerile revenge on French citizens, de facto attacking French institutional democracy. That doesnt mean much anyway, because the lineaments of liberty, equality, fraternity have long been usurped by a crass oligarchy. The second round of these fresh French elections will be on July 7 nearly coinciding with the British snap elections on July 11, and only a few days before the slow-burning urban catastrophe which will be the Olympics in Paris. Paris salons are ablaze with intrigue on why the little Rothschild stooge with a Napoleon complex is throwing all his toys out of the pram now because hes not getting what he wants. After all what he really craves is to become a War President together with the Cadaver in the White House, Starmer in the UK, Rutte in the Netherlands, the Toxic Medusa von der Lugen in Brussels, Tusk in Poland, without having to answer to the French people. Its nearly certain that Le Petit Roi will be facing the real prospect of becoming a lame duck President who needs to obey a right-wing parliament; Elysée Palace chatter already joined the circus, conveying the impression he might resign (that was later denied). Still, if Le Petit Roi runs off to war on Russia no French citizen will follow him, least of all the pitiful French army. Bigger things though are in play. Following the auspicious game- changing messages to the Global Majority coming out of the St. Petersburg forum last week, anchored on openness and inclusiveness, the BRICS 10 meeting of Foreign Ministers in Nizhny Novgorod carried the baton early this week. Foreign Minister Lavrov stressed three key points: The countries of the Global South no longer want to be dependent on the double standards of the West and its whims. Everyone knows that the BRICS countries already serve as the locomotive of the world economy. We [at the BRICS FMs meeting] stressed the need for consistent efforts to create a new world order, where the equality of independent states will be the key. Now compare it with the shrinking G7 meeting later this week in Puglia in southern Italy: the same old song, from a tough new warning to Chinese banks (Dont do business with Russia or else!) to vociferous threats against the China-Russia strategic partnership. And last but not least, extra plotting to skim interest from the massive, frozen/stolen Russian assets with the intent of sending them to country 404; the Toxic Medusa itself announced that country 404 will receive 1.5 billion of the income from stolen Russian assets from the EU in July, 90% of it to buy weapons. As for U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Kurt Campbell the man who invented the defunct pivot to Asia during Harpy Hillary Clintons tenure in the early 2010s he had already advanced that Washington will sanction Chinese companies and banks over Beijings relations with Russias military-industrial complex. False flags and perfect symmetry By several metrics, Europe is about to implode/explode not with a bang but an agonizing whimper anytime within the next few months. Its crucial to remember that the snap elections in France and Britain will also coincide with the NATO summit on July 11 where Russophobia-fueled warmongering will reach paroxysm. Among possible scenarios, some kind of false flag to be squarely blamed on Russia should be expected. It could be a Franz Ferdinand moment; a Gulf of Tonkin moment; or even a USS Maine before the American-Spanish war moment. The fact remains that the only way these leaders across NATOstan plus their lowly MI6 agent in a green sweaty T-shirt in Kiev will survive is by manufacturing a casus belli.
