France’s generals warn of civil war
A letter from high-ranking ex-military individuals has caused a stir in France: In the letter they warn of a “civil war” in the country, which could emanate from Islamists, “hordes from the immigrant areas”, and also left-wing circles.

Christian Piquemal, the charismatic former commander of the French Foreign Legion, and more than 1000 other former and active French military personnel have made a dramatic appeal to the French public.
More than 100 high-ranking active and former officers of the French armed forces and more than 1000 other French military personnel warned in an open letter of the possibility of civil war in France. “The violence is increasing day by day,” says the appeal, referring to the murder of the teacher Samuel Paty last year.
The danger comes from “Islamism and the hordes from the immigrant areas” as well as from a left-wing political milieu that preaches “anti-racism”. “There is no time to hesitate, otherwise the civil war will put an end to the growing chaos and the death toll will be […] in the thousands.”
The high-ranking former officers around the 80-year-old former commander of the French Foreign Legion, Christian Piquemal, declared themselves ready to “support politicians who guarantee the protection of the nation”.
The outcry of the political class in France was correspondingly loud. Jean-Luc Mélenchon, chairman of the Left Party, called the ex-soldiers “rebels”. Florence Parly, the French defence minister, has announced that she would be examining the possibility of action against all signatories of the Open Letter who are on active military service.
The French government is apparently having a look at how to counter the call.
“What seems most likely to me in this case are possible prosecutions for incitement to conduct contrary to duty and disciplinary action, as provided for in Article L322-18 of the Code of Military Justice,” explained Elodie Maumont, lawyer specializing in French military law.
Marine Le Pen, on the other hand, has been encouraged by the letter. She asked the signatories of the appeal to support her party in the upcoming French presidential election campaign.
Christian Piquemal headed the French PEGIDA movement at a large demonstration in Calais in 2016 and then lost the right to appear in public in uniform. A court acquitted him of the charge of having committed crimes however.
In a 2017 interview with reinformation.tv, Piquemal commented: “Immigration is massive, uncontrolled. This will lead to the disappearance of nation-states and populations […] The identity of large countries and in particular of France will disappear if an end is not put to this creeping Islamization which is due to uncontrolled immigration.”

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.
