J-L MELENCHON Pt 1/6 SPEECH AT HUMANITY FAIR 2013 English subtitles

Mr Mélenchon made one of his most memorable speeches 14 September 2013 at the Humanity Fair. One of the rare individuals who is able to think clearly on his feet, this Discourse will be appreciated for it's internal architecture, directness, lyrycism and detail. It has been divided into 6 parts.

Here is Part 1 Iraq-Afghanistan-Libya compared, French official policy criticised and recomendations for a suitable foreign policy. Hollande's first presidential decision. Deconstructing pro-war propaganda with the good old Qui Bono trick.

Jean-Luc Mélenchon was cabinet minister responsible for Professional Education in Lionel Jospin's government (2000-02) as well as a member of the French Senate (1986-2009). He was a long-time executive member of the Socialist Party (1977-2008). He left the PS in 2008, remarking that Socialism is a conviction, not a career. He created the Left Party which is part of a wider electoral coalition, The Left Front. This umbrella organisation is similar to Syriza in Greece or Die Linke in Germany.

In May 2012, Jean-Luc Mélenchon ran for the French presidency. In the first round of the election, he secured 11.1% of the share of the votes nationally (over 4 million votes) in the teeth of total media blackout on his political programme, many malicious misrepresentations (generally chronicled on this channel) and the apparatus' determination to propell the "extreme right" (a euphemism for Fascism) into power for their particular advantage. Déjà vu all over again ?

Mr Mélenchon has been an MEP since 2009.
