Juliette Binoche. Cinematic Madeleine. Compulsive petitioner, never misses the opportunity to support a bad cause. Competing with Marion Cotillard for the palm tweet. Their compassionate miserabilism, their suites at the Majestic, share in common. At the opening of the 2025 Cannes Film Festival, she delivered a pontifical and punctuating homily in a gala hijab. But not a word about Boualem Sansal.
Laurent LafitteCannes abyss. A sermonizing master of ceremonies, the one who once played Tapie got himself into a tangle on the Croisette red carpet. He served us a conventional mess, suitable for bogos, mixing climate, racism, feminism, LGBTism and other nonsense, not to mention threats to freedom of expression (from the wokes, no doubt)... but not a word about Boualem Sansal.
François Ruffin. Sad clone, rejected from the Cours Florent. Former lapdog of Mélenchon, in his campaign based on appearances, now wants to be the darling of the bobos. Expert in demagoguery (such as his slogan "we are the ones who will win"), he is also an expert in bad faith: he opposed the ban on the Islamic veil imposed on young girls by comparing it to Christian baptism... which should then be reserved for adults. Like circumcision, no doubt? Advocates a primary of the Grande Gôche, from Hollande to Poutou. With the Muslim Brotherhood? Did not take part in the vote in the Assembly on the release of Boualem Sansal, a subject he considers instrumentalized by the extreme right!
Jean-Noel BarrotForeign Minister for Business. Drain pipe for the Olympian egomaniac. Practices carpet diplomacy, in the tradition of Daladier: sententious with democracies and obsequious in the face of tyrannies. Between two bows, however, hopes to be able to slip Boualem Sansal a nail file so that he can, like Casanova, escape the Algerian lead regime?
Pedro Sánchez. Caudillo's bootlegger. A hyper-intersectional Iberian, his gendered reform of the army flopped: entire regiments of mustachioed soldiers declared themselves transsexual, a guarantee of promotions. In order to save his seat, he shamefully reneged on his position by making a pact with Basque and Catalan separatists. He pushed the ignominy to the point of demanding Israel's exclusion from the Eurovision Song Contest. Let's remember that the candidate of this democracy was the singer Yuval Raphael, a survivor of the massacre perpetrated by Hamas. All the "No Pasarán" are turning in their graves.
Patrick Boucheron. Medieval historian and media expert at the Collège de France. He notably concocted the Olympic Supper (version "hide these saints that I cannot see"). A historical ceremony queerly deheroized to the point of losing one's mind! A specialist in the Middle Ages, he seems to maintain a certain fascination for witch hunts. He in fact opposed the publication of the work by PUF In the face of woke obscurantism. A work that PUF will nevertheless publish. Boomerang backfire: it's a resounding success! Like the Inquisitor of Name of the Rose, he will have to lower his head (which he still has on his shoulders). Ecco!
