The Great Apéro Debate

Today the Paris Prefecture banned the Apéro Saucisson-Pinard, scheduled for June 18 at la Goutte d'Or in the 18th arrondissement of Paris. June 18 is also the anniversary of Charles de Gaulle's call for French resistance to the Nazi invaders and to the Pétain government.

If you are confused, it is because I have given you the latest news without first telling you what it is about.

Back on May 21 Novopress, among many other sites, began talking about a giant "Apéro" organized by one Sylvie François, to be held in the Muslim-held territory of the 18th arrondissement of Paris on Friday June 18 at 7:00 p.m. This is the neighborhood where, on Friday afternoons, you can see streets filled with Muslims bent over in prayer, traffic being controlled by Muslim "police", and French citizens forced to find other ways to get around, since the streets and pavements belong to the non-French, i.e., the new rulers of France. What is an "apéro"? It's a little bit like our happy hour (the word derives from "apéritif"- the pre-dinner drink I used to enjoy so much in France), except that this one centers on the enjoyment of drinking Pinard wine with the delicious "saucisson" or salami that the French make so well, and often take along with them on picnics. Some French bread, a few slices of ''saucisson", lots of good wine and you have a feast.

Except that the territory is in Muslim hands and Islam forbids alcohol and pork meat, one of the major ingredients in the "saucisson".

And so, the prefect has banned the party. But when word got out, via Facebook, about the event, the news spread like wildfire and soon thousands had joined the Facebook group, and a very big crowd is expected despite the ban, since the organizers have no intention of backing down. They have just filed an appeal.

One unusual aspect is that the ban was not issued to the organizers of the Apéro, but to the press! As if the judge was informing the press of a conviction before the defendant himself was informed.

But there is more, much more. Videos, debates, articles galore, and news that other cities in Europe are following suit: a Bacon and Beer Apéro in London and a Beer and Saucisson Apéro in Brussels, according to Novopress.

Apéros are not uncommon in France. But often they are nothing more than the typical binge-drinking beer fests we see here on college campuses and in restaurants and cafés in the evenings, weekends and holidays. Sometimes the apéro turns violent but it is not banned by the police. In the current case, if it is being banned, it is because this apéro has a political and patriotic purpose - to bring together those Frenchmen who refuse the Islamization of France, who reject the notion that to be patriotic is to be a "racist", and who cherish their national identity, of which the wine and "saucisson" are symbols.

This communiqué, signed Yann Baly, from Chrétienté-Solidarité, an organization founded by Bernard Antony to promote and protect Christianity and the rights of Christians, was posted at Yves Daoudal's blog:

We have just learned, as was foreseeable, that the authorities of the formerly "laïque" French Republic, have decided to ban the Apéro scheduled for this Friday in the neighborhood known as la Goutte d'Or.

The prefect cites as reasons for the ban: "the place, the day, and the time of day."

There is, then, in France, a place (a heavily Islamized area), a day (Friday), the day of the great Muslim prayer, and an hour (the hour of the soccer match between England and Algeria), when for these reasons, we cannot eat saucisson or drink wine!

As we predicted, the Republic has just officially recognized a Muslim enclave in France, where sharia law is applied to the detriment of French traditions.

The French people should know this and note it well.

Note: The soccer match on Friday is expected to have major repercussions in France, no matter who wins.

Here is an amazing video, 1'22" long, that hauntingly illustrates the transformation of "Barbès" in the 18th arrondissement, from a flourishing working class neighborhood, consisting entirely of ethnic French, to a slum not only inhabited by foreigners, but ruled by them. Rue Myrha, Rue Léon, Boulevard Barbès have all been the subject of photo essays by the website Riposte Laïque, whose photographer Maxime Lépante shot scenes of the Friday prayers and the manner in which the streets no longer belonged to the Parisians. These photos, some of which I published at Galliawatch (click label Barbès below) also spread like wildfire throughout the web, and to foreign websites as well, illustrating the degree to which Paris is occupied by the enemy and the interest such images aroused around the world.



Here is one more video - 6 minutes long - showing the total occupation by Muslims at prayer of the rue des Poissoniers in Barbès. This street, along with several others, is entirely in Muslim hands on Friday afternoons, and one can assume other days as well, even if there are no prayer meetings. Occupation is not just a matter of praying in the street, but of being there in great numbers.



Note: I have not taken the time to translate these videos which, I think, speak for themselves.

There is much information at both Facebook (where the original invitation from Sylvie François appeared) and Twitter, but I am not registered at those sites. My attempt to register at Facebook failed, possibly because of inadequate software. I assume most readers can register - look for "Apéro Saucisson et Pinard".

Several anti-racism organizations such as SOS Racism have protested against the Apéro. The head of SOS Racism, Dominique Sopo, and Sylvie François have already faced off in a debate that is on video.

Finally there is much more to be said about Riposte Laïque and Sylvie François who writes for RL, but it will have to wait.
