France Investigating Mysterious Drone Activity Over 7 Nuclear Power Plant Sites
thygate writes In France, an investigation has been launched into the appearance of "drones" on 7 different nuclear power plant sites across the country in the last month. Some of the plants involved are Creys-Malville en Bugey in the southeast, Blayais in the southwest, Cattenom en Chooz in the northeast, Gravelines in the north, and Nogent-sur-Seine, close to Paris. It is forbidden to fly over these sites on altitudes less than 1 km in a 5 km radius. According to a spokesman of the state electric company that runs the facilities (EDF), there was no danger to the security and production of the plants. However these incidents will likely bring nuclear safety concerns back into the spotlight.
Not the Green Party, just one guy who later became a Green politician
Tell that to the people who used to live around Fukushima.
They surrendered because their various political groups were so busy undermining each other they had no time to actually defend the country. France had communists, fascists, monarchists, and parliamentary political divisions all fighting against one another instead of defending the citizens of France. They were a disgrace and the French citizens paid dearly for their political cowardice and back room deal making. Also a hell of a lot of French soldiers died providing the rear guard during the British evacuation of Dunkirk. The French suffered over 90% casualties providing Britain with the valuable time needed to extract their military. And like France Britain was also betrayed by it's infighting and cowardly political class who were so busy being "Lords" of the universe they left Britain damn near defenseless. Without the benefit of the English channel for a moat England would have been conquered and occupied in record time.
