UPDATE:
Final words from the dissident frogman and miscellaneous apologies here

I'm just coming back from Normandy and still have to unpack, but I wanted to offer you a new game to play, particularly if you're in for a D-Day tour this summer.

If you planned it, you may want to cancel your visit to the Musée Mémorial de la Bataille de Normandie (Memorial Museum of the Battle of Normandy) in Bayeux.

Unless you would like to play this game, I told you about.

It's called: "Guess what's missing at a museum dedicated to the Battle of Normandy, 1944?"

Let's see if you're as good at this game as the dissident frogman:

1) Guess what's missing on an empty pole, around a monument to the liberators in the Museum's park up front?



2) Guess what's missing in an empty space in the lapel pin's display case at the Museum's shop?



3) Guess what's missing on an empty pedestal on top of the Museum shop's checkout, at the exit?



That game is piece of cake right?

I could fire up a ferocious comment but I'm still disgusted by these three "coincidences".
What's more, I couldn't get any lucid and convincing explanation for this "fortuitous" accrual.

But maybe you can:

Bayeux's Mayor office:
cabinetdumaire@mairie-bayeux.fr

The Memorial Museum:
museedelabataille@free.fr
Boulevard Fabian Ware - 14400 Bayeux
Phone : +33 (0)2 31 51 46 90
Fax : +33 (0)2 31 51 46 91

As a reference, the direct link to this post is:

Next year, we'll commemorate the 60 years of D-Day and the beginning of the liberation of Europe, from the West (on the East, the Red Army led a conquest war, multiplying the exactions. Not a liberation one).

I'm sure the Museum's administration or Bayeux's town hall (which, in fact, I suspect to be the same) can come up with a good reason for this weighty absence.

And explain us the game's rules.

UPDATE:
From Bulgaria, Jkrank weights in at Sofia Sideshow, with an inspiring template, in case you'd want to ask the Museum's staff to explain the game's rules.

Jkrank is not the mean-spirited type.

Fortunately.

Else, he would have written down the address of the Museum and suggested an idea that would add to the already prodigious records of international aid coming from the United States.

He's just too magnanimous in my opinion.

Don't forget about the Mayor's office though.

UPDATE II:
You might want to have a closer look...

the empty pole
the empty space
the empty pedestal
UPDATE III:
For our third rate experts in photo editing who swallow without bating an eye the assertions of any given dictator when he swear he's peaceful even though he "slightly" exterminated a part of his population sometimes but detect a plot in humble photos such as the ones illustrating this post, there goes the high resolution versions.
Careful, it's heavy.

the empty pole
the empty space
the empty pedestal

And oh... I'm not going back on that anymore. Those who want to believe these pictures are fakes are probably those who bought Meyssan's lamentable theory. So yeah, no plane crashed on the Pentagone, these pictures have been doctored and the CIA is responsible for all the misery in the world.

Thanks for not leaving your alternative reality too often.

Expect more about Normandy in the coming days - Joe is fine though, but I have a few things to say and show you about Tommy.

However, coffee first. And unpacking.
Dirty underwear, missing socks to generate a usable pair, joy of the world traveler.

I'm awfully late with the mail. I was before leaving for Normandy and of course, it got worse.
My sincere apology to all the people who wrote me lately and are expecting an answer.

That rules out the pathetic assclown coming from the company that fences the State monopoly on the routing of written correspondence - as a fact, you should be slaving away to pretend you're deserving the salary your employer is stealing partly in my pocket, instead of spending the day browsing the Web and voicing afflictive opinions in a chancy French, you feckless parasite.

Nevertheless I will write back to the friends, I promise.

MISE Á JOUR II :
Derniers mots du dissident frogman et diverses excuses ici

Je viens juste de rentrer de Normandie et il me faut déballer mes valises, mais je voulais vous proposer un nouveau jeu, particulièrement si vous envisagiez une tournée Jour-J cet été.

Si vous l'aviez mis au programme, vous voudrez peut être annuler la visite au Musée Mémorial de la Bataille de Normandie à Bayeux.

Sauf si vous avez envie de jouer au jeu en question, bien entendu.

C'est : "Devinez ce qui manque dans un musée dédié à la Bataille de Normandie, 1944 ?"

Voyons si vous êtes aussi doué à ce jeu que le dissident frogman :

1) Devinez ce qui manque sur un mât vide autour d'une stèle dédiée aux libérateurs, dans le parc du musée, juste devant ?



2) Devinez ce qui manque dans un espace vide dans la vitrine des pin's de la boutique du musée ?



3) Devinez ce qui manque dans un socle vide sur les caisses de la boutique du musée, à la sortie ?



Super fastoche ce jeu, pas vrai ?

Je pourrais lâcher un commentaire féroce mais je suis toujours écoeuré par ces trois "coïncidences".
De plus, je n'ai pas pu obtenir d'explication claire et convaincante pour cette accumulation "fortuite".

Mais peut-être le pouvez vous :

Cabinet du maire de Bayeux :
cabinetdumaire@mairie-bayeux.fr

Le Musée Mémorial :
museedelabataille@free.fr
Boulevard Fabian Ware - 14400 Bayeux
Tél. : 02 31 51 46 90
Fax : 02 31 51 46 91

A titre de référence, le lien direct vers ce post est:

L'année prochaine, nous célébrerons les 60 ans du Jour-J et le début de la libération de l'Europe par l'Ouest (à l'Est, l'Armée Rouge à mené une guerre de conquête, en multipliant les exactions. Pas une guerre de libération).

Je suis certain que l'administration du Musée ou la Mairie de Bayeux (qu'en fait je soupçonne de ne former qu'une seule entité) peuvent nous donner une bonne raison pour cette pesante absence.

Et nous expliquer les règles du jeu.

MISE A JOUR :
De Bulgarie, Jkrank entre dans l'arène à Sofia Sideshow, avec un modèle de lettre inspirateur, au cas où vous voudriez demander les règles du jeu à l'équipe du Musée.

Jkrank n'est pas un méchant homme.

Heureusement.

Sinon, il aurait reproduit l'adresse du musée et suggéré une idée qui s'ajouterait au score déjà prodigieux de l'aide internationale en provenance des États Unis.

Il est bien trop magnanime à mon avis.

N'oubliez pas le cabinet du Maire, au fait.
MISE A JOUR II :
Vous voudrez peut être voir cela de plus près...

le mât vide
l'espace vide
le socle vide
MISE A JOUR III :
A l'usage de nos experts en retouche à la petite semaine qui avalent sans broncher les affirmations du premier dictateur venu lorsqu'il jure ses grand dieux que ses intentions sont pacifiques même si il lui est déjà arrivé de "légèrement" exterminer sa population mais décèlent le complot dans d'humbles photos telles celles qui illustrent ce post, voici les versions haute résolution.
'tention, c'est lourd.

le mât vide
l'espace vide
le socle vide

Et à propos, je ne reviens plus là dessus. Ceux qui veulent croire que ces photos sont truquées sont probablement les mêmes que ceux qui s'accrochent à la lamentable théorie de Meyssan. Alors ouais, aucun avion ne s'est crashé sur le Pentagone, ces photos sont truquées et la CIA est responsable de toute la misère du monde.

Merci de ne pas quitter votre réalité alternative trop souvent.

Attendez vous à plus à propos de la Normandie dans les jours qui viennent - Joe va bien, cela dit, mais j'ai deux ou trois choses à vous dire et à vous montrer à propos de Tommy.

Mais d'abord, café. Et déballage.
Sous-vêtements sales, chaussettes manquantes pour générer une paire utilisable, joies du globe-trotter.

Je suis affreusement en retard avec les emails. Je l'étais avant de partir pour la Normandie et bien entendu, cela s'est encore gâté.
Mes excuses sincères à ceux qui m'ont écrit et attendent une réponse.

Cela exclut le pathétique cul de clown en provenance de l'entreprise receleuse du monopole d'État pour l'acheminement de la correspondance papier - vous devriez d'ailleurs bosser pour faire semblant de mériter le salaire que votre employeur vole en partie dans ma poche, au lieu de passer vos journées à surfer et à exprimer d'affligeantes opinions en un français douteux, inepte parasite.

Mais je répondrais aux amis, c'est promis.

Don't see why this is such a surprise to anyone, given the childishness the Americans displayed at the very thought of (gasp) France wanting to follow its own foreign policy during the Gulf crisis and subsequent war. Two wrongs don't make a right, and this is indeed childish, but no less childish than restaurants serving members of the US government changing the name of "French fries" to "freedom fries." No point crying foul now, Americans, you did start it after all. Demanding that France follow you blindly into a war because of WW II is like saving a drowning man and then coming around 50 years later and demanding he drive the getaway car for you during a bank heist because "he owes me." Real life doesn't work that way.

1st rule of Frech warfare - France only wins when America does most of the fighting 2nd rule of French warfare - France only wins when lead by a foreigner (Napoleon was Corsican. Ans as we all know, he STILL lost) Going to war without France is like going deer hunting without an accordion. All you do is leave behind a lot of noisy baggage. http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/text/france.html

I recognize the British flag and the Canadian flag in the picture, but what is that third flag? My brother tells me it is the French flag but I always thought that the official French flag was a white bar on a field of white.

#178: Sorry to see that, despite the fact that you found by yourself on an external site a picture that's exactly the SAME AS MINE with an empty pole in the middle... You stick by your claim that I edited my picture... To do what? Remove what wasn't there? As far as the poles are concerned, what I did imply is that a flag is missing. Read the original post again, see the comment that's right under each picture, check back among the comments (granted, that would be a bit difficult) my repeated precisions on what this museum is, what it's not and what I meant with this post. Although the missing one is indeed obvious when it comes to the pedestals and the pin's, all I ever wrote, claimed, shown is that there are three troubling coincidences I noticed at the Museum. Period. You don't seem to understand how you guys are getting fast on this, without even taking the time to accurately read and figure out what I'm writing (and I don't mean "you" qwe alone of course). I just went to post a comment on a weblog that linked to this post stating that I had found that "all American flags were removed from the Museum"... Before you start typing, most people here should take a moment to pause and think. That's the idea behind the old WWII poster that shows when you move your mouse over the little soldier just next the "preview" button. That's for all the people around: when it comes to my posts, I'm very careful with what I write and how I write it. Mostly because I know that I'm not a native English writer and that I must take extra care to express my argument accurately. The corollary is that I expect my readers to read carefully what I write. So don't make me say what I didn't say...

171: >The French chose not to support a war (that as it turns out, was waged on the >premise that IRAQ had weapons of mass destruction, which have yet to be found) >that they did not agree with. So did Canada, so did Russia, so did Germany, so did >most of the western world. Everyone but Britain pretty much said "thanks, but no," >as is their rights as independent and sovereign nations. Australia? Poland? Spain? Italy? Japan? Qatar? Kuwait? Denmark? Croatia? The Czech Republic? All these countries supported the US in various ways. Don't they count? Of course it was France's right to oppose US policy; no one is suggesting we invade France as punishment. But we do have a right to react to the fact that France is no longer a friend and ally. Some react is childish ways ("Freedom Fries"); obviously, the vast majority of Americans realized how silly that was. McDonalds (which has some grievances of its own...), by far the largest purveyor of French Fries, didn't rename them, and I don't know others which did. > Here in Canada, we are facing unofficial trade sanctions. I wouldn't call softwwod, etc., "sanctions", but you're right - US trade policy is indefensible. > We know how the average American treats the French. The average American doesn't treat the French at all... > We chose not to support an unjust and unilateral war, which is our right, and the > Americans are shitting their pants over it, like they always do. Actually, I don't think the average American cared much about whether Canada supported liberating Iraq (although I did). (BTW, I don't think the average American is aware of the significant contribution of Canada in Afghanistan (not to mention WWI, WWII, and Korea), either.) > French take down the flag? > Well, good sir, its the end of the world. > Never mind the fact that their is no obligation to keep it flying... I don't know if they did or not, if the picture was doctored or not (although JPEG compression is not fixed at 3x3 pixels), if the flag should have been there or not. However, if is was there a year (or two or ten years) ago, "there" is an obligation not to deny the past, especially at a museum. > Plane flies into a building? > Well, good sir, its the end of the world. > Never mind the fact that Europe has had to deal with terrorism on far larger a scale. > Ireland? No; besides being an intra-Europe affair, that was over a period of decades, AND still killed fewer (and far fewer civilians) than the recent terrorist attacks against the US. > (Please note, I am not disrespecting the deaths of any of the 3,000-5,000 people > who died in the attack, merely stating the fact that America over reacts to > everything) America does have a tendency to overreact - but hasn't in this case - not even close. A significant portion of the world declared war on the US (long before 9/11), and we finally were roused to real (many would say belated) action by the attacks. Among the results (by no means all positive) are two countries much freer than they were before the attacks.

This is off-topic, but this is funny how the nervous breakdown that America is currently going though has created so much disinformation in the US 1/ France is deeply involved in the war against terror, and is the target from many fundamentalist attacks (paris metro bombings in 95-96, attacks on our tanker in 02, 11 French engineers slaughtered in Pakistan in 02). The Pentagon is working closely with the French intelligence on terrorist issues. But since half of Americans think that Saddam was involved in 9/11, then, er..., there's nothing we can do for you. 2/ Based on Pat Buchanan's theories, many Americans think that France will become a muslim state in 2040. Just like America will become latino and will abandon baseball for soccer and hamburgers for beans. 3/ the only problem France has with the current America is "Bush". Many polls have proven that France has no problems with America at all. I concede that some of the French intelligentsia (limited to the 5th and 6th arrondissements in Paris) can be described as "anti-American" Sad to see that trolls, such as dissidentfrogman, whose only goals are to stir hate, contribute to this disinformation campaign.

#185 (qwe) Sorry, your apology came as I was posting the previous comment. Apology accepted. Now if you could claim it as loud as the aspersion that triggered it... ;-) For the rest, you may want to check my former comment no matter what.
