INVESTIGATION BY JULES LETAMBOUR....

WARNING: JULES COULD BE WRONG, BUT FROM THE ROUGH TEXT OF HIS REPORT (BEING REVISED AND ADDED TO) WITH ORIGINAL SOURCES, IT IS LIKELY THAT CHARLIE HEBDO IS WILLINGLY OR ACCIDENTALLY SPREADING CIA SUPPLIED DISCREDITED/FALSE INFORMATION AS TRUTH. WE ALREADY HAVE MENTIONED THAT THE MAGAZINE OFTEN PROPS UP THE SILLY MACRON GOVERNMENT... WE SHALL SEE.

SO, IS CHARLIE HEBDO A CIA ASSET?

THE ANSWER TO THIS QUESTION IS "IT COULD BE"… CH IS A RIGHT-WING PROPAGANDIST DISGUISED AS A LEFT-WING CARTOONIST SILLY HAVEN — WHILE SUPPORTING NEO-NAZI COLOURED REVOLUTIONS AND THE AMERICAN EMPIRE LITTLE VENTURES...

Je m’appelle Jules Letambour (ce n’est pas mon vrai nom, mais ceci n’a pas d’importance). Je suis un vieux professeur d’histoire et de géographie à la retraite, qui vit dans le Jura (ou peut-être ailleurs). 

Donc, je ne sais pas pourquoi mais il m’est venu dans la tête que Charlie Hebdo does the promotion of the CIA misinformation while being crass and trying to appear funny. It’s devious work. Mind you, it seems that prior 2015, before much of the personnel was assassinated by Muslim extremists, the Magazine was more honest. It appears as if, since the terrorism attack, the magazine has “flipped” in support of the establishment… 

My latest foray into this “possibility” is Charlie Hebdo promoting the cartoonists of the Serbian “revolutions” — the present one and that back to the times of the bombing of Belgrade in 1999, by Bill Clinton — and enthusiastically supported by no other than Joe Biden (in 1999), who in 2016 apologised to the families of the Serbians killed by the NATO bombing, while visiting Serbia. Joe was heckled by the crowds: “VOTE FOR TRUMP!”…

Even as Milosevic was exonerated by the United Nations from having committed a genocide, the West was still dragging his name through the mud of disinformation, way after his death... 

Serbia is still independent, but in 2025, it is much pressured by the West to kiss the American Empire’s butt… Hence the Charlie Hebdo “study” of Serbian cartoonists… to remind us that Serbia was (is) not a nice place.

This situation has been a sore point for the Serbian authorities who are trying to retain the "autonomous" province of Kosovo, but the malevolent forces of the West (read CIA/USAID) are trying to make Kosovo secede from Serbia — which secession of course the said hypocritical West is refusing to the Donbass — in Ukraine, for the same ethnic reason. 

The west is always creating trouble where there is none, and augments molehills into mountains in order to flip situations to its hypocritical advantage, not for that of the local people, under the pretence of help. We know. Where ethnic groups used to live in peace, NGOs (USAID) and the CIA make sure "events" disrupt this friendly bliss....

NATO's intervention was thus prompted by “Yugoslavia's bloodshed and ethnic cleansing of Kosovar Albanians, which drove the Albanians into neighbouring countries and had the potential to destabilise the region.” Yugoslavia's actions had already provoked condemnation by international organisations and agencies such as the UN, NATO, and various INGOs. WHAT IS NOT SAID HERE IS THAT THE TROUBLE WAS STARTED BY THE AMERICAN EMPIRE, FOMENTING “UPRISING AND UNRESTS” LIKE IT DID IN UKRAINE. Yugoslavia's refusal to sign the Rambouillet Accords was initially offered as justification for NATO's use of force. 

Because Russia and China could use their veto within the Security Council to not authorise an external intervention, NATO launched its campaign without the UN's approval, (WHERE HAVE WE SEEN THIS BEFORE? IRAQ? AFGHANISTAN? LIBYA? SYRIA?) stating that it was inter alia a “humanitarian intervention.”

FOR THE WAR AGAINST IRAQ, AMERICA INVENTED THE WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION, FOR THE WAR IN LIBYA, NATO INVENTED THE "GADDAFI IS KILLING HIS OWN PEOPLE" MANTRA AND FOR THE INVASION OF AFGHANISTAN, AMERICA WENT AFTER “BIN LADEN” WHO WAS ASSASSINATED BY AMERICAN SEALS IN PAKISTAN IN 2011… Back to Yugoslavia:

...Claims that the Hague Tribunal said that Slobodan Milosevic was innocent are being trumpeted by Serbian ministers, but analysts believe they are trying to whitewash the country’s wartime past.

NOTE: THE BALKAN TRANSITIONAL JUSTICE IS AN AMERICAN EMPIRE CRONY….

The North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) had thus carried out a ILLEGAL aerial bombing campaign against the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia during the Kosovo War. The air strikes lasted from 24 March 1999 to 10 June 1999. The number of civilian deaths during NATO's bombing of Serbia in 1999 is estimated to be between 489 and 528, by NATO. However, the Yugoslav government estimated that the death toll was between 1,200 and 2,500. 

The bombings continued until an agreement was reached that led to the withdrawal of the Yugoslav Army from Kosovo, and the establishment of the United Nations Interim Administration Mission in Kosovo, a UN peacekeeping mission in Kosovo.

This bombing was NATO's second major combat operation, following the 1995 bombing campaign in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It was the first time that NATO had used military force without the expressed endorsement of the UN Security Council and thus, international legal approval, which triggered debates over the legitimacy of the intervention.

MEANWHILE…

On 14 April, NATO planes bombed ethnic Albanians near Koriša who had been used by Yugoslav forces as human shields. Yugoslav troops took TV crews to the scene shortly after the bombing. The Yugoslav government insisted that NATO had targeted civilians.

On 23 April, NATO bombed the Radio Television of Serbia headquarters killing sixteen civilian employees. This was labeled as a war crime by Amnesty International. NATO claimed that the bombing was justified because the station operated as a propaganda tool for the Milošević regime.

On 7 May, the US bombed the Chinese embassy in Belgrade, killing three Chinese journalists and injuring at least 20. The US defence secretary explained the cause of the error as "because the bombing instructions were based on an outdated map", but the Chinese government did not accept this explanation. The Chinese government issued a statement on the day of the bombing, stating that it was a "barbarian act”

NOTE: IT WAS IN SERBIA THAT NATO FORCES FIRST USED DEPLETED URANIUM DURING AN OPEN CONFLICT.

NATO, which was supposed to be dissolved after the Cold War, turns 75 this year [2024]. 25 [26] years ago, around 15 tons of depleted uranium bombs were dropped by NATO on Yugoslavia. As a result of these bombings, over 30,000 people are diagnosed with cancer in the first 10 years since the bombing, making Serbia now the country that has the highest rates of cancer in Europe and one of the highest in the world. On behalf of these people and their families, Serbian lawyer Srdjan Aleksic (Aleksic) began a legal process against NATO in 2021. In the Global Times (GT)'s Insight Talk program with reporter Wang Wenwen, Aleksic talked about this case and the role NATO now plays in the world.

For its essay, Charlie Hebdo relies on The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Toronto Star… which are also good TRADITIONAL promoters of the porkies from the establishment.

HERE WE GO:

BY YOVAN SIMOVIC

New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Toronto Star…” When Dusan Petricic lists his former employers, we discreetly start counting on our fingers: according to our calculations, the Serbian cartoonist was still playing with a pencil for the Anglo-Saxon press in 1999. So we try the question head-on, on tiptoe: “And… uh… how do you draw that year, across the Atlantic, when NATO is preparing to bomb your country of birth?” Dusan Petricic doesn’t shy away. “I didn’t support Milosevic [the Serbian president, nationalist, editor’s note], obviously, but I couldn’t support the bombing of Belgrade either,” he begins. 

LETAMBOUR — WIKIPEDIA: Dušan Petričić (Serbian Cyrillic: Душан Петричић; born 10 May 1946) is a Serbian illustrator and caricaturist. He has illustrated numerous children's books and his caricatures have appeared in various newspapers and magazines from Politika to The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal and the Toronto Star.

My editor-in-chief summoned me, we agreed that I would remain free to draw my own cartoons, but that they would no longer appear on the editorial page because my positions could not commit the newspaper." Listening to the anecdotes of this mustachioed man, who scribbles frantically on the cardboard placemat of a bistro in the center of Belgrade (capital of Serbia), we also believe we understand a little about the evolution of freedom of the press under the different political regimes that the country has known since the end of the Second World War. In 1970, Dusan Petricic published his first caricatures in the largest Yugoslav newspaper, Vecernje novosti. "The only thing that we absolutely, absolutely could not touch was the figure of Tito," he insists about the founder of the post-war Yugoslav communist regime.

WE DO NOT DISPUTE THAT YUGOSLAVIA WAS AN AUTHORITARIAN REGIME BUT MOST OF THE TROUBLES WERE COVERTLY HELPED BY NATO AND THE AMERICAN EMPIRE AS PART OF THE DEEP STATE QUEST TO DESTROY RUSSIA.

“Finally…” he corrects himself, smiling, straightening his retro-rimmed glasses, “there were always ways to get a few messages across, but you had to read between the lines.” He particularly remembers one of his drawings from that time: a man in a suit, standing in an official sedan and escorted by soldiers on motorcycles, mocking a delirious crowd (see the drawing opposite). “The guy I was drawing had a neutral face, but everyone could understand that I was talking about Tito, and it went through, in the pages of the newspaper, next to a bootlicking editorial glorifying the marshal,” he jokes. Before continuing: “If you want to talk about that period, I advise you to go to Corax, the oldest Serbian press cartoonist still alive.” »

150,000 newspapers seized

So we jump in a taxi, heading for Novi Beograd, a “modern-Soviet” district that attracts architecture students from all over the world every year who come to jerk off on the stepped blocks of flats that emerged after 1945.

EUROPE

Georgia. Facing the Russian Ogre: "It's Like I'm Spitting on My Own Culture”

This is where Corax – 92 years old – still draws every day for Danas, a daily newspaper opposing the regime of Aleksandar Vucic. “He fell on his head last week, his mind is a bit foggy,” his daughter warns us, “but he always has time for Charlie Hebdo.” So, Tito? Corax wants to show us a drawing, never published. It is of the Austrian Kurt Waldheim, former Secretary General of the United Nations, depicted with a swastika over his mouth (see the drawing below). “I did it in the 1980s, when a journalist revealed that he had joined the Nazi student federation before being a member of the SA mounted corps,” says the old man. At the time, his drawing was approved by his editor-in-chief, and the completed newspaper was sent to print. “In the middle of the night, the communist political police arrived at the printers to seize the 150,000 freshly printed newspapers, and they forced us to delete my cartoon if we wanted to reprint them,” he recalls.

It must be said that it looked bad: Tito, a hero of the resistance against the Nazis, had awarded Waldheim one of the most prestigious Yugoslav decorations a few years earlier, without knowing the details of his previous military service. “The worst part was that Tito had already been dead for a while, but the faltering regime did not want anyone to touch the tutelary figure who kept Yugoslavia united,” he adds.

Skulls to denounce the massacres

A few years later, when the Yugoslav wars broke out, it was the Bosnian Serb minority that attacked the cartoonist. “I used to draw skulls, lots of half-buried skulls, to denounce massacres, like the one in Srebrenica. So, of course, I got threatening phone calls and they even sent me a newspaper with my name written on one of the skulls I had drawn,” he recalls.

Today, the two cartoonists say that “direct political pressure on cartoonists almost no longer exists.” Of course, some of their caricatures are attacked in pro-government media, in the National Assembly and sometimes even directly by the Prime Minister, “but no matter how angry they get, they can’t do much,” says Corax. There are still economic pressures. To recognize a newspaper under the influence of the regime, according to Dusan Petricic, you just have to look to see if there is advertising inside. "If a Serbian company places an ad in an opposition newspaper, the next day they send an inspector and they will always find something to fine you or close you down," he explains.
