WORLD WORLDWIDE EUROPE FRANCE - news journal UPDATE - (en) France, Monde Libertaire: Sainte-Soline, Olympic site (ca, de, fr, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

 Sainte-Soline could be the long-awaited plan B to host the opening

ceremony of the Olympic Games and the swimming events. A dress rehearsal
is being organized this weekend to test the feasibility of the
operation. If all goes well, it could be the turn of the Winter Games
... but shush! ---- "There is no question of exposing the athletes to
the slightest health risk by making them splash around, even just one
day a week, in water that is prone to bacteria". This statement by the
committee of candidates who won less than 5% in the presidential
elections explains why a full-scale rehearsal of the opening ceremony of
the Paris Olympic Games is being organized this weekend in Sainte-Soline
(Deux-Sèvres) to test the feasibility of the operation. As for the
swimming competitions, things are less complicated, with the prospect of
fearing that horned beasts foment fewer attacks than bearded ones. To
meet the demands of the director, ten thousand intermittent workers were
hired. For logistical reasons, trucks delivered crates of grenades,
smoke bombs and batons until dawn. Six to eight thousand will play the
leftist hordes that threaten the country's food security by attacking
private property. On the stage, three thousand representatives of the
"forces of order" will face them. They will benefit from the arrival in
the garden of idle members of the rural coordination, enticed by the
prospect of a giant barbecue with merguez sausages and the scalps of
agitators.

Was it the stifling heat or the abuse of local schnapps but the rioters
did not keep their promises, preferring to run away rather than engage
in a virile hand-to-hand combat with an adversary impatient to fight?
Which made a blogger who was doing the rounds of the sound and light
shows write that the show was so poor and caused such boredom, that of
"the armed men (who) left three thousand but by a prompt reinforcement
found themselves more numerous when arriving at the basin" that he found
himself yawning. He left again for the Puy du Fou where he was assured
that there they were twisting History with passion and talent, not
without having noted with an infamous one star the performance he had
just witnessed with a murderous comment: not enough guts opened.

In case the crash test is conclusive, nothing would prevent us from
exploring other avenues. The organizing committee of the Winter Olympics
could consider repatriating the sports competition planned in the Alps
in 2030 to the Deux-Sèvres. The agricultural activity of the residents
of the basins would be supplemented by snow cultivation. Indeed, rather
than transporting water from the various basins to the Alpine sites, it
is available on site, it would be enough to put the winter sports
resorts in the countryside, which in passing, would give life to the old
dream of Alphonse Allais. This proposal, by bringing the competition
sites closer to the available water reserves, represents a sustainable
solution adapted to climate change. Imagine the black run of Sainte
Soline, the ski jump of Saint Sauvant... There is no doubt that such a
project would gather the enthusiasm and funds of Mrs. Royal,
P.R.D.S.A..P.N. (President of the Deux-Sèvres Region and Ambassador of
the North Pole) and the sympathies of the local police prefect. Let's go
all out without delay. It is about building the future by singing the
slogan of the Sainte-Soline games, "The basin fascinates me". Or its
FNSEA version "Sainte-Soline, it bores me".
