France, Alternative Libertaire #223 - Read: Georges Ibrahim Abdallah: 15 years imprisonment (fr)

For thirty years like me, the fact that IM Abdullah has already spent almost the 
equivalent of my life in jail can only lead to a few questions about the principle of 
confinement, whose abolition is not necessary rather put forward by the French 
revolutionary movement. ---- Reading this book only reinforces a feeling of nausea already 
present, since Abdallah languishing in jail for nearly thirty rods for ... nothing. Or 
rather, for being communist revolutionary Lebanese Maronite Christian, engaged in armed 
struggle against imperialism in particular to the Palestinian people. In short, the ideal 
culprit of the wave of attacks perpetrated by the Support Committee Political Prisoners 
(CSPPA) that shook the early 1980s our beautiful country, everything to please the United 
States who simply put pressure on the socialist minister of the interior at the time, 
Robert Pandraud to enclose GI Abdallah.

It was found shortly after, totally innocent. But the intended victim Abdallah allowed to 
hide the direct involvement of France in the Iran-Iraq war then and the attacks were 
actually CSPPA that responses barbouses Iranian military acts of war on their soil French ...

A beautiful Mi'kmaq political economy which is almost laugh if it was the real victim of 
the time and today.

Thirty years after the fact, new committees to support IM Abdullah emerge gradually 
throughout France. The communist mayor of Grenay (Pas-de-Calais), Christian Champir? and 
members of the City Council have recently appointed an honorary citizen of their city. In 
short, this is a story that tells much alive this little book certainly a bit pricey for 
the content, but remains a burning for all Activists revolutionaries.

Because, as there is little recounted the Jean-Marc Rouillan visiting Toulouse for a 
presentation of this book, the struggle for the liberation of GI Abdallah and beyond all 
political prisoners revolutionary is an excellent indicator of the state of French 
revolutionary movement itself.
