Publicity

The SpaceX rocket successfully placed two NASA astronauts into orbit. An unprecedented flight in space history, since this first manned flight in ten years in the United States was operated by a private company, the company SpaceX, of the American group of industrialist Elon Musk. What ignite the enthusiasm of Southwest .

Which newspaper sees in this flight "  signs of a new era, hitherto dominated by the States  ". And this newspaper underlines that the rocket, that night, took off "  from launch pad 39A, at Cape Canaveral  ". It was from there that "  the Apollo missions to explore the Moon took off in the 1960s and 1970s,  " recalls Sud-Ouest . Elon Musk, last night, therefore sort of replayed Objectif Lune .

French jihadists, The great escape

In the Kurdish prisons in Syria, it was rather The Great Escape that replayed French jihadists who escaped, with, in particular, the complicity in France. Thirteen of them are on the run. According to Le Parisien Dimanche , since the first Turkish military offensive in north-eastern Syria last October, "  around twenty French jihadists have escaped (from three) Kurdish prisons and camps  ". A source close to the French intelligence services confides to this newspaper that these women use "  paid smugglers up to 10,000 euros in particular."  (…)  Escape funding circuits have been identified as far as France and dismantled,  ”this source reports to Parisien Dimanche . Which newspaper specifies that these prisoners on the run are "  from the Paris region, the North, Brittany or the Côte d'Azur  ".

Some were taken over but, according to the Center for Analysis of Terrorism, quoted by this newspaper, “  as of May 8, 13 of them were still in the wild (including) Hayat Boumeddiene, widow of the hyper terrorist Hide the Amedy Coulibaly  ”, in reference to the attack of January 9, 2015, Porte de Vincennes in Paris.

The Chinese Health Organization

It is done. Donald Trump has decided to cut ties with the WHO. The American president accuses the World Health Organization of being a puppet of Beijing. Opinion shared in France by Le Point magazine. According to this weekly, in the coronavirus crisis, "  there is no doubt that the WHO has failed heavily  ".

This weekly, however, blames it… Donald Trump himself. Because “  the WHO crisis is above all emblematic of the collapse of the multilateral system under the blows of Donald Trump. The disorderly withdrawal of the United States leaves international organizations at the mercy of China, which uses it as a lever to promote its total-capitalist model  , "said this magazine.

Raoult the sniper

This coronavirus crisis has also brought to light a figure now known throughout the world, the Marseille professor Didier Raoult and his treatment based on chloroquine. And this week, Didier Raoult "  shoots on sight  ". This is the front page of L'Express , a magazine to which the famous Marseilles doctor gave a long interview "  A demanding and… " muscular " exchange during which Raoult sulphate  ", expresses L'Express .

The journalists ? Didier Raoult accuses them, accuses us, of not working "  enough  ", and those of L'Express of asking "  stupid  " questions! What is the coronavirus? “  In Paris, the forties are dead. In Marseille, there is none, he told L'Express . (…) We at the (Marseille Hospital Institute) had a death under the age of 70 who had received the hydroxychloroquine and azythromycin treatment, and none below the age of 60. In Paris, half of the people who died from Covid-19 were under the age of 70. It is shameful,  "he fumers again, before adding:"  I was told that I treat young people, who do not die. Except that in Paris, there are some who die ! With us, no.  "

As L'Express advises , paraphrasing a "  famous caricature on the Dreyfus affair  ", Professor Raoult, "it is  better not to talk about it during a family dinner  ".

Jean-Marc Morandini in the crosshairs of the judges

Something new in the “  Jean-Marc Morandini affair  ”. French justice requires the referral of the television host to a court. According to Le Parisien Dimanche , "  on April 3, the Paris prosecutor's office requested the correctional of the host of Cnews and NRJ 12 for bribery of minors over 15 years of age, suspicions he contests  ". According to a lawyer for Jean-Marc Morandini interviewed by this newspaper, "  this indictment is empty (...) and all the more surprising that it comes when several (...) requests for acts (of the defense) are in progress  " .

The last session

Salut confraternel to conclude with a French magazine which has just released for the first time an issue which it would have done well, the cinema magazine Première , which indeed publishes on the Internet its first issue “  which will not be available in newsstands.  "  It is especially the first time in its history that the magazine comes out when the cinemas are closed,  " said Première. Courage therefore to the Première team, which is "  looking forward to the eradication of this virus  " in order to allow it to " give us  even more desire to return to theaters!" " So that this issue of Première is not its last session…
