    The diesel engine

    Diesel engines are more efficient, more reliable, easier to repair, and more polyvalent than gasoline engines.

  • Police, Army

    Police, Army

    There is a difference between maintaining order and maintaining power. The army should not intervene on its own soil. It must defend the country or prevent massacres.

When the authoritarian power feels so threatened that it thinks its police will no longer be enough, it mobilizes part of its population in a reactionary…

    Only 4,600 exhausted police officers to supervise the demonstrators

    On December the 1st 2018, violence broke out in Paris. The government has decided not to properly manage the demonstration. Only 4,600 “end-of-pipe” police officers, as Yves Lefebvre of the Unité-SGP Police FO union says, were mobilized. About thirty French police officers committed suicide this year. It should be noted that in most French regions,…
