Foxes among the geese (continued)

A series of books has been published on this phenomena before and since this affair and we’ll develop certain aspects of it in detail in a future article. All that one needs to know is that since 1981 some individuals with a shady ideological past – and who knows; perhaps still obeying some of their leaders within the framework of a long-term operation – were and still are running the State ( whilst bearing in mind that when we speak of running the state, we think also of certain large industrial groups, the counter-espionage services, the intelligence service, etc., etc.,) It would also appear that even if these networks no longer have a lot to do with “trotskyism”, they still seem to pursue their own particular objectives.

To come back to the problem of arms dealing, to the increase in international tension and to terrorism on a national level, the above is more than of passing interest. The instigators of a totalitarian ideology, whether it be left or right-wing, thrive on tension. Terrorism and localized wars, the flaring up of certain hot-spots in the world and wanton terrorism all encourage this tension. Democratic regimes are powerless to resist this type of threat and very often their first reflex is to reduce individual freedom and to set up security measures which allow more and more control of its citizens. In this framework, one of the “successors” of Senator Dailly, installed in his post at the end of the sixties, draws our attention in particular.
