French state of emergency extended after chilling documentary
In France’s migrant suburbs, women are very unwelcome. In a rare reality check, France 2, the state TV channel, last week revealed the hostile attitudes that exist towards white French women in their own country.

Secretary of State for Digital Affairs and Innovation, Axelle Lemaire, told APF these examples were “intolerable discrimination against women”.
The state television team visited Saint-Denis where 36 per cent of residents are foreign, and recorded responses with a hidden camera. As journalist Caroline Sinz remarks: “The café terraces and the streets have something in common: women seem to have been erased. In some neighborhoods, men occupy public places and women suffer.”
Footage captured the deep cultural divide between different communities: “In the café there is no mixing. We are in Sevran [Saint-Denis], we are not in Paris. In 93 [Saint-Denis] it’s a different mentality — it’s like back home”, a Muslim regular in a café tells the reporters.
Sinz was told that conservative Muslim men had taken over certain areas in France following urban riots in 2005, and women were banished from public life completely.
The France 2 journalist also visited a neighbourhood in Lyon, where only Muslim men are seen on the streets. A young, white au pair tells the reporters that she avoids attracting attention to herself by shunning even normal Western dress-codes for females. Asked why, she tells the programme: “Simply, we are afraid”.
The most difficult part of making the documentary, Sinz said, was finding women who would agree to be filmed. Sinz told state radio FranceInfo: “They are afraid, they have already spoken out in many cities, and were insulted and assaulted. So now to avoid threats, and being put under pressure, they censor themselves and keep quiet.”
On Sunday night Labour Minister Eric Woerth said the report “planted a dagger in the heart of the Republic”, and urged new Prime Minister Bernard Cazeneuve to take action.
The growing concern about cultural antagonisms pushed France’s parliament early Wednesday to vote for extending a national state of emergency until July 15, after next year’s elections. The overnight vote in the National Assembly passed by a resounding 288 to 32.
Only the far-left and ecologists voted against the prolongation of security measures.
New Interior Minister Bruno Le Roux stressed ahead of the vote that France faced “an extremely high” risk of a terrorist attack. Since the last mass killings Le Roux noted that they had “foiled no fewer than 13 attacks, involving about 30 individuals”.
This will be the fifth extension of the state of emergency, called Vigipirate, giving the police extended powers of search and arrest. The name is an acronym of vigilance et protection des installations contre les risques d’attentats terroriste à l’explosif [vigilance and protection of installations against the risk of terrorist bombings].
The security measures, in force since attacks in Paris that killed 130 people in November 2015, are expected to be approved by the Senate on Thursday.
The extension means France will have voted for the longest uninterrupted state of emergency since the Algerian War in the 1960s.

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. However, it has met its match in the Swedish air defense missile system RBS 70, which has quickly led to significant losses for the Russian helicopter forces.
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.
The Establishment Wants to Ban Germany’s Second Largest Party – for the Sake of Democracy
The rising popularity of AfD has raised strong concerns within the establishment. Despite lies and demonization in the media and isolation from the overall political establishment, the party continues to grow. Certain representatives of the party are accused of becoming increasingly "extreme," and in an unusual move, the influential weekly newspaper Der Spiegel demanded that AfD be "banned."
