Jean Guyot ou comment faire l'Europe avec la banque Lazard

Jean Guyot ou comment faire l'Europe avec la banque Lazard

Poursuivons notre grande saga européenne, avec cette fois-ci une sorte de zoom sur un illustre inconnu du grand public, qui pourtant est typique de cette atmosphère étrange de laquelle a émergé l’Europe. Zoom, donc, sur Jean Guyot, un personnage qui a allègrement mêlé les affaires et la construction européenne, proche de Monnet et Schuman, associé gérant de la banque Lazard. Un des fans de la technique du tourniquet, en somme…

Jean Guyot : ce personnage fait partie de ce que je qualifierais de « nébuleuse Monnet », c’est-à-dire les hommes qu’on voit dans l’orbite de Monnet, le « père de l’Europe » selon la messe en vigueur depuis 60 ans maintenant, mais aussi –avec d’autres- de la Société des Nations, la SND qui devait nous empêcher de faire la deuxième guerre mondiale. Peu connu de ceux qui ne cherchent pas des poux à l’Europe qu’on nous a construite, Guyot est symptomatique d’un certain système fort peu démocratique : l’Europe.

Très introduit dans le milieu européaniste depuis le début (en langage européen on appelle ça « un pionnier »), via Schuman notamment, dans le cabinet duquel il est inspecteur des Finances dès 1946 avant d’être sous-directeur au Trésor. Cela lui a permis, dixit le site de sa « fondation Hippocrène » (destinée à « renforcer la cohésion entre jeunes européens »), de financer les investissements français via la Commission des Investissements et de répartir l’argent du plan Marshall, dans le cadre du Plan dont Jean Monnet était le responsable à l’époque.

Guyot était d'ailleurs à ce poste au moment où une partie de l'argent dudit plan Marshall était détournée pour le compte de la CIA afin de financer -par exemple- Force Ouvrière (afin de diviser la CGT qui avait le tort, elle, d'être communiste). Sur le même principe, Irving Brown, l'agent qui a permis la scission de la CGT, a aussi financé un certain courant trotskiste (lambertistes) dont ont fait partie Jospin ou Cambadélis à leurs débuts, ainsi que différents think tank européanistes.

Docu: The MISA - Bivolaru files - a blatant counterfeit

From MISA!Description: MISA and Gregorian Bivolaru case - the unknown story beyond the files Because of the lack of evidence on which the first arrest warrant for sexual relationship with a minor, and the extradition request are based, the Bucharest Tribunal issued on 15 April 2005 a new arrest warrant against Gregorian Bivolaru for the crime of trafficking persons. It is strange that this court issued this warrant since only few months ago, the High Court admitted that the Bucharest Tribunal could not impartially judge the cause of Gregorian Bivolaru and reassigned the case to Sibiu Court. Not to talk about the fact that anyway a person cannot not be arrested twice at the same time… It is also strange that, although the court knew the names of Mr. Bivolaru's lawyers, they found out about the new warrant through media. Moreover, although the authorities knew Mr. Bivolaru was detained in Sweden, the subpoena was send to his residence in Bucharest. It's obvious that the Prosecutors' Office and the Bucharest Tribunal try to cover the serious abuses, so obvious in the first file, by making up new accusations that are pathetically wick. The assimilation of the activity of an artistic intermediate agency, with which Mr. Bivolaru has no connection whatsoever, and the ancient practice of Karma Yoga, with trafficking persons, show the despair and uncertainty of part of the judiciary, guilty of the huge number of abuses presented above. Taking into account that Gandhi himself has practiced and taught his

Adoption agency yet to shift babies

Adoption agency yet to shift babies

R Gokul,TNN | Jul 3, 2014, 06.33 AM IST

TRICHY: More than two weeks after the Madurai bench of the Madras high court ruled that babies at the Sisters of Cross Society for Education Development (SOCSEAD) in Trichy should be shifted to other registered adoption agencies, the process is yet to begin at the centre.

The high court ruling came as the renewal of recognition for SOCSEAD is not yet complete. The centre is now waiting for the state adoption resource agency (SARA) to shift the babies soon.

In its order dated June 17, the high court bench comprising justices V Ramasubramanian and V M Velumani said, "SOCSEAD does not hold any valid recognition as on date either for keeping the children or for giving them in adoption. So long as they do not have a valid recognition, custody of the children and their attempt to give the children in adoption are only illegal."

Sir Roger Singleton CBE is chair of the Independent Safeguarding Authority and the Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Fund.

He was Chief Executive of Barnardos for 21 years and was awarded a knighthood for his services to children in 2005. He has served on public inquiries into child abuse in children’s homes and is involved in the governance and management of various charities. Sir Roger is also Chairman of Perennial Gardeners Royal Benevolent Society (www.perennial.org.uk). Perennial is one of the UK's oldest charities which was created in 1839 helping horticulturists facing times of difficulty. Sir Roger is also an accredited mediator. Roger Singleton was universally seen as a balanced and liberal spokesman for children's rights. Indeed the only significant public criticisms made of him as a professional for the bulk of his career, prior to 2009, were accusations in 2003 that as chief executive of Barnardo's he had supported emotionally manipulative advertising campaigns used to raise the charity's profile.[1] In this case the UK advertising standards authority found decisively in Singleton's and Barnardo's favour.
