France warns diplomats against non-essential travel to Iran after foiled bomb plot

Aug 29, 2018 4:37 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

The French government has warned its diplomats and foreign ministry officials against all unnecessary travel to Iran, citing a foiled bomb plot against a dissident rally in Paris as warnings of a more aggressive Tehran.

Meanwhile, French President Emanuel Macron, like Barack Obama, thinks that appeasing Iran will keep its regime under Western control. In reality, the more appeasement, the greater the escalation of power of the jihadist state of Iran.

French President Emmanuel Macron reiterated his commitment to the Iran nuclear deal, but he and European allies in favor of keeping it have proven unable to talk Trump out of renewed sanctions on Iran.

“Foiled bomb plot sees France warn diplomats against non-essential travel to Iran – leaked memo,” RT News, August 28, 2018:

The French government has warned its diplomats and foreign ministry officials against all unnecessary travel to Iran, citing a foiled bomb plot against a dissident rally in Paris as warnings of a more aggressive Tehran.

Written by the ministry’s Secretary General Maurice Gourdault-Montagne on August 20, the memo seen by Reuters refers to a foiled bomb plot against an Iranian dissident rally in Paris earlier this year. It explains it as a “hardening” of Iran’s position regarding France, “as well as some of our allies.”

“Given the known security risks… all departmental officers, whether from headquarters or (overseas) posts, are required to defer until further notice, except for urgent work, any travel plans in Iran,” the memo advised.

The rally in question was hosted by the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) on June 30 and was also attended by US President Donald Trump’s lawyer, former Mayor of New York City Rudy Giuliani. Iran has previously denied any involvement with the plot.

The memo follows on from earlier travel advice handed out to French travelers on May 10, warning its citizens against entering Iran with electronic equipment such as drones and walkie-talkies, and taking too many photographs.

News of the leaked memo comes as Iranian President Hassan Rouhani urged the remaining signatories to the 2015 nuclear deal to act to save the pact on Monday, following the US’ withdrawal by Donald Trump in May….

    It should be the other way round. Iran should advice its citizens not travel to the French jihadist hellhole where hundreds are murdered in jihad attacks over the last few years, where a single Arab terrorist mowed down and killed 86 French citizens two years ago and where there is constant jihad attack in the streets almost every week! Everybody knows that there are far more islamic jihad attacks in France than in Iran and yet the stupid French bastards have the audacity to preach about terror attacks in Iran!

      France is considered by Muslims to be the HOME OF THE “FRANKS” … another word for ‘CRUSADERS’. Medieval Islam is not compatible with MODERN France.

      Muslims have a deep general prejudice against France and the French should learn this if they have any intelligence whatsoever.

      In fact, the French want an ‘EASY’ solution to the Muslim problem in France without lots of confrontation, but there is only a DIFFICULT solution, because Muslim fanatics WILL NOT GIVE IN.

      Because and since Muslim fanatics WILL NOT GIVE IN EVER… Western countries will have to adopt stricter and stricter laws to suppress Islam… eventually banning it entirely for human rights incompatibilities.

      Islam does in fact promote bigotry, obscurantism, misogyny, genocide, censorship, inequality, vigilantism and violence, so Islam is incompatible with modern human rights codes and most national constitutions which are secular.

      Medieval Islam is incompatible with modern France.

        Francia or France is the original kingdom of the Franks and of the knight Templars, but not all crusaders or knight Templars were French. If the Islamists want to destroy the West, I think they hate first and foremost Israel.

    You cannot trust people who shout “Death to America” upon waking up in the morning.

    This should cause all of us to remember something mostly forgotten by most people was that vicious and murderous jihad bombing on December 21,1988 of that Pam Am flight 103, Lockerbie bombing disaster. Iran might have had a part in that murderous affront. With those malicious and spite-filled mullahs and other tyrants in power in Iran with their malice-filled Islamic hate for Americans and America. Those malice-filled mullahs and ayatollahs as well as other sinister and insidious fiends in control of Iran with their destructive intentions. This information has been given by a former Revolutionary Guard member, Reza Kahlili, for Iran who defected to the United States. This information about Iran’s possible involvement in that Pam Am bombing is from his book, which is entitled A TIME TO BETRAY pages 291,292, 294, 296.
