France Wants Foreign Troops to Reinforce Olympics Security – Report
France has called on its international allies to help enhance security for the upcoming Olympic Games, in Paris, AFP reported on Thursday, citing sources in the government.
According to the report, Paris has asked 46 nations to send 2,185 police reinforcements for the duration of the games in order to take over tasks that require additional specialists.
The French authorities have not yet confirmed that such a request was made, but Polish Defense Minister Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysz on Thursday announced on X (formerly Twitter) that his country’s armed forces would “join the international coalition established by France” to provide additional security at the Olympics. He didn’t reveal the size of the contingent Warsaw plans to send, but noted that it would deploy canine units whose job will be to “detect explosives and counteract terrorist activities.”
An Interior Ministry source told AFP that the request for reinforcements is a “classic move for host countries ahead of the organization of major events.” However, the news comes just days after Paris raised the terrorism threat level in the country to its highest level following the deadly attack in Moscow, which killed more than 140 people.
On March 22, four gunmen stormed the Crocus City Hall concert venue just outside Moscow, going on a shooting spree and setting the building on fire. The gunmen had allegedly been recruited on behalf of ISIS-K, an Afghanistan-based offshoot of the terrorist organization Islamic State.
Russian investigators later revealed that the perpetrators had received funding for the attack from Ukraine.
In a press statement following the attack in Russia, French Prime Minister Gabriel Attal said that the threat of terrorism in France is “real and strong,” adding that the country’s intelligence services have foiled 45 terror plots since 2017. He noted that France’s current anti-terror security measures, part of the country’s national security alert system called the Vigipirate Plan, will be tightened in the coming weeks, with security forces maintaining a more visible presence on streets and in front of possible targets such as government buildings, transportation infrastructure, and schools.
The Vigipirate Plan has been in place since 2015, when France faced a series of devastating terror acts linked to Islamic State. They included the attack at the Bataclan concert hall, the Stade de France stadium, and drive-by shootings and suicide bombings across Paris.
This year’s Olympics will run from July 26 to August 11. Around 45,000 French police and gendarmes, 18,000 troops and up to 22,000 private security guards are expected to work at the games, AFP reported, citing official figures.

Joe Rogan Responds to Israel’s ‘Robot Genocide’
On his Thursday show Alex Jones covered statements by talkshow host Joe Rogan on a recent Joe Rogan Experience episode regarding the mechanized genocide being committed by Israel in Gaza.
“They were always saying they were only targeting Hamas, and everybody else is a casualty, well if those guys are just unarmed civilians, and they’re walking alone, that’s what they appear to be, and you just blast them from the sky with robots,” Rogan said. “This is insane.”
Rogan was referencing recent video of Israel using drones to murder Palestinians in the streets.
“If you can’t talk about that, if you can’t say that’s real, then you’re saying that genocide is okay as long as we’re doing it, and you’re saying that from a perspective of someone that literally went through the Holocaust,” He said. “And now you’re willing to do it, I hope the irony is not lost on you.”

BREAKING: CPS Hands Over Kidnapped Children to Pedophile Rings
On his Thursday show, Alex Jones covered how Child Protective Services failed to protect children when the government agency gave children to pedophile rings.
“And it’s where gay men, in closed quotes, and I’m not attacking gay men that aren’t pedophiles, but I’m saying gay men is what they call it in the news, are adopting children, and most of them are social worker kids, kids grabbed by social workers, because mom was working two jobs and the four year old was in the back yard and the neighbor called and they took them,” Jones said. “And they give them to these pedophile men who then sell them to rape gangs.”
The Infowars host said that these stories break all the time, but only in the local news. He went on to discuss the greater pedophile cult ruling the nation.
“When you look at Congress you see Democrats, I mean most of them are pedophiles, those are child rapists, and I don’t just say that, I mean you don’t get in the club, it’s like to be a made member of MS-13 you got to have killed somebody,” He said. “Well here you got to rape a little kid in front of them.”
Pedophilia is often used as a compromising tactic by intelligence agencies, as was seen in the Jefferey Epstein saga.

Pentagon Offers to Fund ‘Peacekeeping Force’ in Gaza – Politico
The US has offered funding to partners in the Middle East for a peacekeeping force in Gaza, which would police the Palestinian enclave after the hostilities with Israel are over, Politico reported on Thursday.
Gaza has been left devastated after five months of Israeli bombardment and siege, and according to aid groups is on the brink of famine. West Jerusalem is seeking to obliterate Palestinian armed group Hamas, which staged an incursion from the enclave into southern Israel in October, killing around 1,200 people and capturing scores of hostages. Over 32,600 people have been killed in Gaza since, according to Palestinian health officials.
While it remains unclear when the fighting in Gaza will end, the US has been engaging regional partners to discuss how the situation might look the “day after” the war. Washington has offered to pay for a “peacekeeping force” that would not include US soldiers and could be led by Palestinians, four official sources, including two from the Pentagon, told Politico.

Arab nations want a clear commitment to a Palestinian state as part of the resolution, the outlet noted. It added that Israel is “reluctant to have these conversations” until it defeats Hamas – a goal that skeptics say may be impossible to achieve. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed not to allow the creation of a Palestinian state.
“Israel is the long pole in the tent,” an anonymous military official told Politico. “It would be one thing if the [US] administration and the Israeli government were aligned on the way ahead, but that is just not the case.”
The rift between Washington and the Jewish state has become increasingly evident. Earlier this week, the US allowed a resolution urging for an immediate ceasefire to pass at the UN Security Council. Washington abstained in the vote, unlike during numerous previous attempts, when it vetoed proposed documents with the same wording.

Earlier in March, US Senate leader Chuck Schumer said in the chamber that Netanyahu “has lost his way by allowing his political survival to take precedence over the best interests of Israel.” The remark was rebuked by Israel and the Republican Congressional leadership, although President Joe Biden said his key ally had delivered “a good speech.”
