French activist and actress Adele Haenel faced censorship on French television after condemning the Israeli genocide of Palestinians in Gaza.

During an appearance on the French channel France 5, Haenel also accused France of being “complicit” in the genocide and called for sanctions against Israel.

Following her comments, the channel’s parent company, France Televisions, removed the programme from its replay service.

On Wednesday, 9 September, Haenel appeared on the programme to discuss her first book, which addresses violence against children and the sexual abuse she suffered as a minor at the hands of director Christophe Ruggia.

A court convicted Ruggia in April of sexually assaulting her, in a case that drew national attention in the country.

    Israeli intelligence agencies must have some amazing smut on so many corporate and government pawns to wield this kind of global censory power on their wholesale murdering. Wouldn’t be surprised if they had free and clear access to the user databases of Ashley Madison, PornHub, OnlyFans, and whatever other websites people might prefer remain private, in addition to all the Epstein-based and -esque evidence reserved for controlling the elites.

      It’s quite simple, they have a lot of knowledge about a lot of very influential people through Epstein and associates (let’s not pretend the state of Israel will let something so important depend on a single person). There’s a reason people call him a spy, you can see the entire structure as one giant honeypot to lure extremely wealthy and powerful people into doing something heinous that only you have proof of. Voila, infinite leverage.
