Before he was imprisoned in February 2015, the criminal had already signalled his disdain for authority. Wearing the same white tank top, and showing the same provocation with his fingers, Le Parisien found a photo of the young criminal who, with his cousin, posed with the President of the France.
During his visit to St. Martin [French West Indies] Macron took selfies with the two cousins. The embarrassing selfies were broadcast on social networks, creating a huge controversy.
On ne trouve même plus de mots pour exprimer notre indignation.

In February 2015, Reaulf Fleming, known as “Raul”, had just been arrested in St. Martin for robbery. The thug who was actually handcuffed, was photographed just before he was placed in pre-trial detention.
He requested that the police who arrested him, take a photograph of him.

The robber was sentenced in April 2015 to 5 years in prison. He was recently released from detention when the head of state Macron met him this past weekend, urging the young man to stop “the nonsense” and to tackle the reconstruction of the island devastated by the hurricane Irma.
“The president said he would help me find work and help my sick mother,” said Reaulf Fleming on Monday. According to him, the head of state has given him “great motivation”.
“It made me want to leave this island. I would like to work in plumbing.” This may be a real challenge for the young black criminal who, according to information obtained by Le Parisien, is the relative of one of the most notorious leaders of the armed gang controlling the cocaine market from Guyana.
While his popularity rating continues to plummet in the polls, Emmanuel Macron sparked controversy by agreeing to be photographed with the young criminal and his cousin, shirtless, showing a middle finger. On a video of the encounter, Macron can be seen hugging and embracing the two half-naked gangsters.
“I love every child of the Republic, no matter what his troubles, because he often did not choose the place where he was born, and he did not have the chance not to do so,” declared Macron.
The convicted criminal then posted the photo on social networks stating that his gesture was not addressed to the president, but to all those who thought that his neighbourhood was not secure, according to a journalist present during the trip.
But Annick Girardin, minister for France’s overseas territories, told the BBC about the alarming “scenes of pillaging”. She has urged police to restore order. “We need to restore public order to Saint-Martin,” she said.
“I was out this morning and this afternoon and there was looting right there in front of my eyes. There is a strange mood at the moment in Saint-Martin, so we need to think about public order.”
The island is shared between France and the Netherlands. Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte said more soldiers and police would be deployed after reports of gangsters with guns and machetes roaming the streets.
The Netherlands is sending more forces to contain “serious” post-storm looting on the island, it said.

NOAA Predicts Zero Sunspots for Almost the Whole 2030s
CLIMATEThe United States' government scientific organization, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), predicts zero sunspots from 2031 to 2040. This is an extreme situation that has not occurred in as long as humanity has been counting sunspots, and it leads us into uncharted territory in terms of our solar system. However, this prediction aligns with the warnings of the world-renowned solar researcher Valentina Zharkova for many years, who indicated in 2019 various signs of this catastrophic phenomenon, including the extreme hailstorms we have seen in Europe and the world this summer. The forecast and various observations this year give cause for very significant concern. In this unique analysis, Free West Media explains why.
European Nationalist Parties Forge Cooperation Ahead of EU Elections
EUROPEAN ELECTIONSOn Saturday, August 26, representatives of six European nationalist parties gathered in Budapest. The meeting was initiated by the Hungarian party Mi Hazánk and took place in the national parliament. Representatives of the parties signed a joint declaration that not only reaffirms the parties' friendship but also their unity on a range of complex political issues. A surprisingly clear and radical manifesto was established. The hope is that this cooperation will lead to success in the EU elections and eventually result in the formation of a group in the European Parliament. For Swedish nationalism, this meeting marks a success as Sweden, for the first time, has a party represented in a leading nationalist cooperation in Europe. Free West Media was present at this historic event.

Swedish Weapon Takes Down Russia’s Best Attack Helicopter
The Russian attack helicopter Ka-52 is considered one of the world's best and has struck fear in Ukraine, where it has hunted down tanks and other armored vehicles, often beyond the range of many light anti-aircraft systems.

The Sun Drives Earth’s Climate, Not Carbon Dioxide
Top Researchers Push Back Against Climate Lies."The correlation is as clear as day," explained the Israeli astrophysicist Nir Shaviv, who was hailed by the establishment, before his interview with Forbes was hastily deleted. What he says contradicts the climate narrative, which points to humans as responsible for Earth's climate. Shaviv firmly asserts that it is the sun that controls the climate, something that can be scientifically proven in many ways. Contrary to the popular belief, the sun's influence on Earth has, in recent years, caused unusually cold and rainy weather, a trend that solar researchers warn will worsen significantly in the coming decades. The sun has exhibited an unusually low activity since 2016, during Solar Cycle 24, which was the weakest in a century.
Strong Confidence in German AfD
Alternative for Germany (AfD) held a party conference on July 29-30 to select candidates for the upcoming EU election next year. EU Parliament member Maximilian Krah, belonging to the party's more radical, ethnonationalist faction, was appointed as the top candidate. The party's two spokespersons delivered powerful speeches criticizing the EU's failed migration policy and trade sanctions that isolate Europe and Germany from the rest of the world. They argued that it's time for the EU to return a significant portion of its power to national parliaments. However, they have dropped the demand for Germany to exit the EU.
