Pierre Cassen is the founder of Riposte Laïque. He is one of the most prominent Counterjihad activists in France, and has been prosecuted and convicted for “inciting hate” with his words and actions.

Mr. Cassen recorded the following video after yesterday’s horrific fire at the cathedral of Notre-Dame de Paris. Many thanks to Ava Lon for the translation, and to Vlad Tepes for the subtitling:

Video transcript:

00:00 Good day again, my friends, or rather good evening,

00:04 my friends! The hour is grave. Usually I don’t

00:08 make more than one video a day, but I just got a phone call from a friend,

00:12 in tears, who said: Pierre, Pierre, Notre-Dame is burning!

00:16 It’s terrible! They will all take away from us! Nothing will be left for us!

00:20 I will try to stay as calm as possible in the face of the cold rage

00:24 in my chest. At the moment I’m speaking to you, we don’t know anything about whether it’s

00:28 an accident or a criminal act. We don’t know anything about that.

00:32 I would like to say that if it’s an accident, it’s a crime that such an accident

00:36 could happen to a jewel of France and its history.

00:40 If it’s a criminal act, it’s simply the continuation of

00:45 criminal acts which, for several years, have been touching

00:49 our churches, our patrimony. I’m therefore going to make a couple of reminders.

00:53 In 2018 we had 1063 anti-Christian acts.

00:57 Out of those 1063 anti-Christian acts,

01:01 two churches were vandalized PER DAY! Two churches vandalized

01:05 while at the same time there were only 100 anti-Moslem acts

01:09 and by contrast 541 anti-Semitic acts. I remind

01:13 you that this government, this regime, also — incidentally — including

01:17 the pope, including the cardinals, shut their mouths, say nothing

01:21 when our churches are being vandalized, and in contrast the minute there is a mosque

01:25 that has a pot of pork sausage in front of it, there’s immediately, first of all:

01:29 Arrest and prison for the person who did it, and additionally a visit

01:33 from the prefect, apologies from the whole of France, the stigmatization of racism,

01:38 and so on, and so on. It’s an absolutely unbearable double standard!

01:42 I would just like to remind you that Notre-Dame de Paris

01:46 was vandalized two or three years ago by females, friends

01:50 of Caroline Fourest [French feminist writer], received in all the important TV studios and in all

01:54 the living rooms of the Republic [entertained by French elite]; Notre-Dame vandalized:

01:58 Urine everywhere and all, and it made

02:02 the elites laugh, it made our journalists laugh, it made our Leftists laugh,

02:06 it made our rulers laugh, who kept quiet, who never uttered a word of protest!

02:10 I remind you that the very same females were acquitted

02:14 by a justice [system], which just sentenced and which never ceases condemning

02:18 people for “hate incitement” when it’s about another religion.

02:23 I remind you that at the Basilica of the Kings,

02:27 one of the finials of our history, in Saint-Denis [also Paris], was recently vandalized,

02:31 a couple of days ago, by an illegal Moslem, who arrived in France only two days earlier!

02:35 I would like to remind you that in the week of March 12th-19th

02:39 twelve French churches were vandalized! I remind you that morons like [Jean-Michel] Apathie

02:44 [leftist journo] dream of demolishing the Versailles Palace, when

02:47 some [Ian] Brossat [communist former deputy mayor of Paris] dreams of demolishing the Sacré

02:50 Coeur. I remind you that all of that is the fruit of the methodical work of the negation

02:55 of our patrimony, of the destruction of our history

02:59 of the repudiation of France, of the decommissioning of

03:03 all that’s beautiful and magnificent in our history! Therefore I cannot stand

03:08 what is going on! That Macron said tonight that

03:12 he is postponing his speech because of Notre-Dame, we would prefer to hear from him

03:16 during 1063 anti-Christian acts, about which he doesn’t give a f***,

03:20 preferring — of course — the others! So yes, the situation

03:24 is grave, the situation is scandalous, it’s

03:28 the pride of our history that is in the process of burning down! And I accuse all the quislings

03:32 of being responsible for the fire at Notre-Dame, which — in a way —

03:36 incarnates the destruction of France against which he [Macron] is hounding so much

03:40 every day! Have a nice evening, my friends.
