How dare she reveal how totalitarians are trying to persecute and railroad her?
“French justice continues witch hunt on Marine Le Pen,” by Abdelhamid Kaddour, Voice of Europe, October 17, 2018:
Marine Le Pen is again being investigated because she published the picture of her psychiatric expertise’s injunction on Twitter.
On 20 September, Le Pen published on Twitter an injunction from the justice minister that requires her to undergo a psychiatric evaluation.
According to French justice she needs that evaluation after she published pictures of ISIS victims on her twitter feed to expose the gruesome acts the group commits.
Among other things, she posted a photo of a man being burned alive and of the body of American journalist James Foley with the text “Daesh is THIS”.
“I am being charged for having condemned the horrors of Daesh. In other countries, this would have earned me a medal,” Le Pen then said. She could face three years in jail as well as a €75,000 fine.
But now Le Pen has been charged as well, for publishing the request for an inquiry into her psychological health.
Le Pen described the request by saying that France is turning into a totalitarian state and that judges are politicised.
“They want to prosecute me under an article which was used against sexual workers, psychopaths, perverts and sexual predators!”
“Every action against the opposition is taken, to try to harm it, to slow it, humiliate it (…) they are marks of an undemocratic system. They are marks of a totalitarian state!” She said.

This entire FALSE ARREST and FALSE PROSECUTION and FALSE PUBLICATION BAN smells to HIGH HEAVEN.
Is this the level to which the French legal system has sunk.
Where is the LIBERTÉ in France that MILLIONS of SOLDIERS, SAILORS AND AIRMEN FOUGHT AND DIED FOR ???
FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION IS NOT NEGOTIABLE BECAUSE IT HAS ALREADY BEEN PAID FOR IN FULL !!!
SCANDALEUX! Where are the ANGRY FRENCH LAWYERS COMING FORWARD TO STOP THIS TRAVESTY and DEFEND FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION ???

——————————————————————————————————
Or sunk back to – there’s another famous case of a loyal French citizen being tried by a corrupt establishment that cared only for it’s own interests and despised the accused’s belief in their country – Dreyfus, anybody ?
Still, at least these days, they can replicate the conditions of “Devil’s Island” a lot nearer home…..
Andy says
The totalitarian state EU is running at break neck speed to censor all common sense speakers from saying anything negative about Islam.
Dangerous world we are living in at this time. History is repeating itself.
God Bless & protect Marine Le Pen and all freedom fighters around the world we are living in a very dangerous time.
God help us all to confront and defeat this evil which has the world in it’s grip!

Thanks for that, Mr. Copson. J’ACCUSE !!! all over again !!!

In France There is apparently only justice for ISIS, Muslim groups and Muslims in general. WHAT HAPPENED TO FRANCE? Maybe that part of France that bent to the Nazis is the France that has survived to what it has become….The French citizenry should be screaming FOUL to what is happening to their government. But I suppose they will continue to be mostly silent in the face if what has happened to their country.
Frank Anderson says
JDS, how can letting them violate every law and ignore every basic requirement, understanding and custom of civilized society be called justice? Justice in my understanding means compliance with the law or penalties for its violation; not punishment for those who uphold the law.
Rita Oakes says
Agreed
vlad says
What happened to the French?
Micron and Merkil happened to the French, but don’t worry the French will always be there when they need you.
God bless Marin Le Pen
Don Corrigan says
Dangerous and sad times. Marine joins Tommy in Bitain , Geert in Netherlands , Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Salmon Rushdie, plus Christians and non muslims in many countries. We must wake up and get in the faces of those who create and support this totalitarian crime.
Lydia Church says
That is the form of tyranny that it has become.
They want to beat them, but they also want to gag them so they can’t scream too loud to alert others of the crime!
Rita Oakes says

If French Leftards are trying to REMOVE THE FREEDOM OF SPEECH, they are starting a war with half their country and with the FREE WORLD that still exists.

Mortimer, we are lost if we do not know who the enemy is (hint; not “the Left”). Quem deus vult perdere, dementat prius.
Mac-101 says
This really shows the extremes the Globalist will go to smash our individual freedoms and make those who survive the Initial cull nothing more than saves in the 1984 Satanic NWO. In addition Islam will be the forced religion of the State!
mortimer says
This is perfect opportunity to BRING INTO THE COURT all the EVIDENCE that Islam is a HATE CULT.
Robert Spencer’s book ‘THE HISTORY OF JIHAD’ can be used to defend Marine Le Pen.
QUESTION FOR THE FRENCH COURTS:
“IF WE CANNOT CONDEMN AND CRITICIZE CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY, WHAT MAY WE CRITICIZE?”
J D S says
Well stated Mortimer.
J D S says
Well said Mortimer.
Flavius Claudius Iulianus says
How recursive.
So now I fully expect Robert Spencer to be prosecuted ‘in absentia’ for publishing a story about Le Pen’s publishing the order …..
and so on, and so on …

She is getting the Brett Kavanagh treatment.
Same people. Same M.O.
WPM says
True witch hunt trials of the 21 century sponsored by progressive Islamic appeasers now in power of France and England. Another reason ,I will never again vote for a democrat after watching the democratic party gone insane at the Brett Kavanagh hearings. These people have lost their collective minds Jim Jones style all drinking the PC appeasement cool aid.

Roland says
This latest order from the French courts beggars the imagination! That’s how abusers and police states operate. “Don’t squeal about your abuse or you will get punished.” This is disturbing also because, politics has become a zero-sum high stakes game in France: the winner gets all the power and the loser gets destroyed. This polarizes society and makes politics more desperate and vicious, like the old Bronx saying, “Do onto others before they do onto you.” France has long been polarized, between right and left, modern industrial and traditional rural, now globalist vs. nationalist. I fear that extreme political polarization and tribalization is also occurring in the United States. Can we dialogue among ourselves anymore?
gravenimage says
Spot on, Roland.
Frank Anderson says
IN the United States, a very few court proceedings are conducted in secret. For example, bar complaints against lawyers are supposed to be filed and conducted in secret, UNLESS the accused attorney wants a public proceeding. The theory behind Open courts is that by having the public witness the conduct of the court, people will understand their obligations while assuring the court conducts itself in a lawful manner.
The very idea that a person could be prosecuted for publishing a court order directed at her violates, not offends, violates every concept of due process, and could easily involve violation of UN treaties, which certainly bind France, and control French law. This judge/prosecutor is as criminal as he accuses LePen of being, and should be prosecuted, removed from the bench, disbarred and otherwise ruined in the example of Former North Carolina Prosecutor Mike Nifong of the Duke Lacrosse Players false prosecution fame.
Please consult a currently licensed attorney in your jurisdiction for any legal advice.
James Lincoln says
Frank, your input on these topics is essential.
Please keep posting!

Thanks for this information, Frank.
I agree with James Lincoln’s estimate of your contributions.
Frank Anderson says
GI, There is a state where I am licensed on retired status where the vast majority of legal process, such as motion hearings, are taken in judges’ chambers without court reporters or witnesses, in spite of a state constitutional provision that says the courts SHALL be open. . .
Open courts are vital to show 1) due process, 2) the rights and duties of the people and 3) the conduct of the judge and court. The only reason to conduct those proceedings in secret is to prevent others from seeing both what is permissible and what is not, and how the court deals with the parties before it.
The best example to me is the secret bar disciplinary proceedings, which are only public (absent the attorney’s demand) if the attorney is convicted. That way no future accused attorney has any access to cases of previous acquittals, and therefore cannot prepare a thoroughly informed defense.
gravenimage says
I agree that except in rare cases (such as protecting threatened witnesses), court procedures should be open and recorded.
Frank Anderson says
GI, there are ample procedures available to protect witnesses without conducting hearings and trials in secret. Some witnesses need to be exposed to challenge false testimony. Just follow Rev. Al Sharpton through the last 20 years or so for examples. Where unusual protection is arguable there is a hearing called a motion in limine or for a protective order that should be in chambers, but still documented for appeals.
The right to subpoena (force attendance), confront and cross-examine witnesses is essential to due process, Where witnesses have carte blanche to lie without penalty, guess how much lying takes place? Protecting truthful witnesses is vital to the entire legal system. Obviously I have dealt with many liars in court, including 5 lawyers who found themselves on the stand testifying against their clients.
gravenimage says
Thanks, Frank.
I certainly wasn’t trying to suggest ways to make it easier for witnesses to lie in court.
Frank Anderson says
GI, I believe from all I have seen that we share a dedication to the truth. Lying witnesses are a blight which needs to be discouraged and punished so that lying becomes much less prevalent in the entire legal system. How often is perjury prosecuted? Almost never except when a charge is needed for political purposes (lying to an FBI agent).
Older Canadian says
Perhaps this was the inspiration for the recent move of Fench citizens to Hungary.
Although the charges against Le Pen appear to be unbelievable, it wouldn’t surprise me if someone did the same in Canada the results would be the same. Trudeau has great admiration for Macron, and his play book.

Grimly true.

The will eventually have her assassinated as they will Tommy Robinson. This little dog and pony show is to create a thin veneer of legitimacy to the establish her as a criminal. Once framed that way, they can directly or indirectly do what they want to her. That is what Tommy Robinson is being set up for now. He will be jailed and will never get out.
Obbop says
Patriots in Western militaries must do some insightful thinking and ponder the need to rise up and protect their citizens and country from traitors and invading barbarians. A military coup takes control and roots out the traitors and ensures patriotic to country and Western values take control.
Dig into the source of the traitor’s funding and wrench those fiends’ wealth away and send to labor camps to atone for their vile deeds against the Western world.
Draconian times require those measures. All Western countries are in a war for survival. If we lose a New Dark Age descends that could be worse than the planned Thousand Year Reich of the recent past. In the USA a military coup to root out traitors and New World Order Globalist filth would have the backing of mega-millions of armed citizens. Could the same be expected of France, Britain, Sweden, Germany and other invaded countries swarming with traitors spitting upon the citizens?

I don’t think we need to throw out democracy for the Muslims.
We can vote in better leaders–starting with Le Pen herself in France.
Tony Holland says
But surely ‘the military’ took negative action against the junior soldiers who posed for a photograph with TR at a petrol station,so there doesn’t seem to be much enthusiasm to support ‘public’ fears about the danger we all face from the subhumans,makes you wonder whether the ‘top brass’ are in cahoots with the globalists,that of course though wouldn’t apply to the squaddies down the ranks who are after all the important ones that carry the guns.

France: Le Pen now charged for publishing order that she get psychological exam for opposing ISIS
…………………..
How is Le Pen having publicly exposed this outrage against her a crime?
b.a. freeman says
They are marks of a totalitarian state!
—
she ain’t wrong … and it’s coming to the u.s. as soon as the left can get rid of that pesky constitution thing. fortunately for them, they haven’t been teaching civics truthfully for decades, so most young graduates don’t have any idea what the constitution says, or that a republic will only work if the laws are obeyed by most, as well as enforced fairly.
Merkexit says
Seems the French elite are confused if they think this will hurt her in the next election.
More likely to get her elected; if the duplicity and double standards piss me off, imagine how a real French Patriot feels about this Soviet tactic of jailing for political ‘mental health’ violations.
Patsy Koenig says
Maureen LePen is a heroine for the French patriots who want a French France…and an inspiration to all those in the world who are patriots and nationalists. That is why the wicked Left government is persecuting her under laws designed to prosecute sex-traffickers. What a grievous miscarriage of justice!
