      And now France is the first supporter of US policy in Europe and threatens Russia with sanctions ... both Europe and Europeans with their slavish, passive policy are disgusting. Now again Britain and the United States are trying to set Europe and Russia against them, but they themselves will again remain a "safe haven" for investments, and neither Germany nor France can do anything, they will put pressure on Russia at a loss ... nothing!

        French partisans - "Maquis" ..... in fairness I must say that not all were sold in France, there were partisans and prisoners in concentration camps, mostly communists ........... was and "Normandy-Niemen", but all this is a drop in the sea of ​​loyalty to the German authorities ..... maybe on the one hand it happened, because there was no such lawlessness on the part of the Germans in relation to the civilian population, as in the same Belarus or the Leningrad region? they were instructed to behave correctly and politely (such as polite troops smile ), so as not to embitter the population, probably that is why such a sluggish reaction to the occupation .......... and in our song "Kiev was bombed, we were told that the war had begun", they began to chop all Slavic subhumans into cabbage , respectively, received the return in full

          As far as I remember, the losses of the French patriots (poppies, etc. resistance) amounted to somewhere around 25000 people, out of 50 million of the population. At the same time, in the battle of Moscow in 1941. About 10000 French legionnaires participated in the Wehrmacht.
          In general, they did not really resist.

      Right! All geyropa knows how to "fight" only by surrendering their bodies to the invaders. This is their "high civilized" relationship between peoples. Today you are an occupier, and I am a victim, and tomorrow you gently occupy me. Conclusion - what to expect from this spineless shushara and what can you count on? So, listening to them is not respecting yourself. They are a dead-end branch from Darwin's theory. We continue to move on our course!

    Looking through the photos, I remembered my childhood and films about the war, which I watched in the club. Not a TV, it was black and white, but color films about that great time. The dissonance between the quiet life in Paris and the struggle for life in Leningrad. The blood rushes to the face and anger boils up in the soul. The anger of historical memory and the anger of historical unconsciousness. There are, after all, "unique" that seriously talk about surrender, warm shit and a cozy barn. Some even conduct polls and then whine about ... lo, not understanding current trends. Such would gladly give up and slurp ersatz soups for good luck.

    What did you expect to see in the photos taken by the bourgeois and German officers? How the heroic "poppies" carry out actions against the occupiers? Interrogation of the underground in the Gestapo? Anti-fascist posters on the Arc de Triomphe? Then there was a war, and the rules in Paris then dictated by the Germans and their henchmen. At the direction of Goebbels, naturally. The usual propaganda of a happy life under the "wise and strong hand of the Reich."

        In the course, there was also "Wallonia". But you need to understand who took these photos and for what purpose. Correctly, show the Nazis as "civilized common people." In the same Fritzes, you can find staged photos where "the population liberated from the Bolsheviks meets the German liberators ". And what, I have to believe them? This is the usual propaganda during the war. Say, look how happy the cultured Parisians are, there is no trace of occupation of some Europeans by others.

    Keitel is right. The French fought, and against Germany (Normandy-Niemen air regiment) and for Germany (legion of French VLF volunteers). And for the Germans, the French fought more than against. But France (not the French) as a state did not fight against Germany. Moreover, interestingly, Stalin pushed the decision to include France into the Anti-Hitler bloc and to allocate the occupation zone to the French in defeated Germany !!! America and England finally wanted to recognize France as the territory of occupation as an accomplice and satellite of Germany. And Charles de Gaulle remembered who France owes its postwar winner status in the 2nd MV !!! And until the end of his days, he respected the USSR and Comrade Stalin with great respect and piety. And the current French do not remember this or do not want to remember.

Until the middle of 1943, on the territory of France, there was not any resistance and there was, if any, subversive actions against the Germans were carried out, then they were all planned, coordinated, executed, under the leadership of SAS SIS (British) Only in 43 when Germany's mob potential was exhausted , The Germans began to "call" French workers to work in Germany at their factories, and then they ran into the forest, so the "legendary" MAKI (resistance) appeared. Until that moment, they sat on their priests exactly and everything was in openwork, straight love and idyll with the Germans! I remember at school we were told how the Germans sent an echelon with a French Champaign near Moscow, to celebrate the victory, brought it, opened the carriages, and it all froze and burst, I only then found out in the mid-90s that it was not the Germans, but the French. , this is champagne from the Charlemagne division (volunteers) and this is November 1941!

    "Victory" of the French, or rather the French women over the Germans:
    During his stay in occupied Paris, a corporal of the German Wehrmacht by the name of Schmitz, who had good artistic abilities, did not waste his free time in vain and was engaged in writing watercolors, so to speak from living nature. The main theme of his drawings was the image of French girls and German military personnel. Somehow, the work of the German corporal Schmitz caught the eye of the owners of the Paris publishing house "Europa", who admired them and acquired 6 of their favorite images. The result of this acquisition was the release of a set of large postcards (15 x 20 cm), which were then offered to all German soldiers serving in France at a price of 1 Reichsmark or 20 French francs per set. They say that at one time such postcards were in good demand, but so far they have almost never reached.

    From the Order of NCO No. 227 dated July 28.07. 1942 :
    "Not a step back! This should now be our main appeal. We must persist, to the last drop
    blood defend every position, every meter of Soviet territory, cling to every scrap
    Soviet land and defend it to the last opportunity. Our homeland is experiencing the hardest

    Yes, and so it is clear that the Europeans will not fight among themselves until the last soldier. It is amazing to me how generally the British did not agree with Hitler, and they had to fight.
    This is us, the Russians, no one will be sorry, there have been and will be other wars with us for one reason - they are afraid of us, and we are not there.
    We do not have allies, and we don’t need them, subject to internal unity and the consent of society (Kersnovsky).

    “You know, Bill,” I said. - In Belarus, I sat in the swamps with my people and shot the Germans. And we sat in the swamps for two years. Therefore, the local Resistance seems to me to be a scout picnic. Imagine - a thug breaks into a nice, cozy little house, la belle France, rapes the hostess, grabs everything he likes, and finally stays here. La belle France treats him, feeds a calf’s liver, wines with the best wines and erases his filthy filth on the Eastern Front. In addition, she gives him Jews so that belle ami Fritz could sleep better. And one fine day the hostess sees that the guest has begun to die. Foam from the mouth, cramps. And then the brave, courageous and selfless la belle France grabs the pan and hits it on the head. That's all their Resistance to a penny.

At the door of this non-fun institution An announcement hung in Paris: Denunciations on neighbors are NOT accepted. The whole war.

    The pictures were taken by the French photographer Andre Zucca, who worked after the capture of Paris in the magazine of the German administration * Signal *. He received a fucking salary and had the rarest kodak color film. Dr. Goebbels, after visiting Paris in 1940, found the city * sad *. So it was decided to take all the best to Paris. The French were even allowed the ceremony of giving military honors at the grave of the Unknown Soldier at the Arc de Triomphe. By the way, these photos in France do not like, the first exhibition was held only in 2008. Her advertising was banned, and the exhibition itself was accompanied by special explanations. about how the French had to endure the occupiers
