L'histoire des harkis, ces musulmans qui ont combattu auprès de l'armée française pendant la guerre d'Algérie, reste un épisode douloureux pour la communauté. Une histoire aujourd'hui ravivée par l'affaire des tombes disparues. Au sortir de la guerre, menacés de mort chez eux, quelque 90 000 harkis et leurs familles sont accueillis en France. Un peu plus de 20 000 sont relégués au camp de Rivesaltes, dans le sud du pays, aussi appelé camp Joffre. Entre 1962 et 1965, près de 150 personnes y sont décédées et enterrées sur place, dans un cimetière de fortune. En 2024, des fouilles mettent au jour des tombes, mais elles sont vides. La municipalité a reconnu avoir déplacé les sépultures en 1986 sans prévenir les familles. Cinq d'entre elles ont porté plainte.  « Entre l'été 1962 et l'automne 1964, le camp enregistre plus de 140 décès, essentiellement des bébés de moins de deux ans et des personnes âgées ». Naïma Gimenez lit la légende d'une des photos exposées au mémorial du camp de Rivesaltes. Cette fille de harki fait partie du collectif qui a déposé une plainte contre X après avoir appris, en février dernier, que les tombes du camp Joffre ont été déplacées à l'insu des familles : « Ça a été fait un petit peu à la va-vite, sans nous demander surtout l'accord à nos parents. Aucun courrier, qui reflète quoi que ce soit sur cette histoire. J'ai tout su en 2019, quand il y a eu l'inauguration de la stèle de ces enfants décédés au camp de Joffre ». Nicole Gougache fait partie, elle aussi, des plaignants. Devant une photo montrant des tentes dans lesquelles ont vécu des harkis, elle évoque la mort de sa grande sœur Aziza : « On se demande combien de familles il y avait dans ces tentes. En tout cas, ça me rappelle que ma maman a accouché dans le camp de Rivesaltes et l'enfant qui avait quelques jours a vécu dans ces tentes. La neige passait à travers et ma sœur est décédée dans le camp en mars 1963 ». Et quand Nicole Gougache et sa famille apprennent que les restes de sa sœur ne sont plus dans le camp de Rivesaltes depuis 1986, elle et sa famille se sont senties trahies : « Encore une fois, on nous cache les choses. On est quand même en 1986, on n'est pas en 1963, je dis bien 1986. On pouvait nous informer puisque le registre des naissances était bien à la mairie de Rivesaltes, avec les décès. Dans notre livre de famille, il est bien écrit "Aziza, née le 27 mars, décédée le 29 mars 1963", donc on pouvait nous informer. Pourquoi cela n'a pas été fait et qui est à l'origine de tout cela ? ». Pour avoir des réponses, cinq familles ont déposé plainte. Maître Antoine Ory, du barreau de Paris, est leur avocat : « Effectivement, elles considèrent que les réponses qui leur sont apportées ne sont pas satisfaisantes. Elles ont besoin de comprendre pourquoi tout ça a été fait dans ces conditions. Je rappelle quand même que cet épisode assez regrettable, et même macabre, a été découvert de manière fortuite. Il se pose la question de pour quelle raison tout ça a été fait dans leur dos, et pourquoi ils ont appris cet épisode fortuitement ? ». En attendant une réponse de la justice, les milliers d'ossements de harkis restants et retrouvés dans des cartons au cimetière de Rivesaltes, sont en cours d'analyse dans un laboratoire de Marseille. André Bascou, maire de Rivesaltes, qui avait signé en 1986 les documents de transfert des tombes, est toujours en poste. Sollicité par RFI, il n'a pas souhaité s'exprimer sur ce sujet.

¡Bienvenidos al único programa que permite el que una señora mayor se apodere de la silla de un gordo, esto es otro gran capítulo de Bájale 2! En un episodio sin precedentes, el corillo de Bájale 2, estaban comentando de las noticias con retardo como la señora de Taco Bell en Los Ángeles que le dieron un “gasnatón” bien dao, cuando de momento, El Come, se percata de que había una señora bien guapa en GW5. Dejando de grabar y abandonando a Gabby, El Come, se acercó a la señora y le preguntó si quería saludar. Lo que El Come no vio venir es que cuando le ponen un micrófono a Noris Joffre en la cara, no hay quien la saque de allí. Mucho con demasiao en otro gran episodio de Bájale 2.

Längs floden Marne i norra Frankrike inleddes den 5 september 1914 ett av historiens mer avgörande slag. Nästan 2,5 miljoner franska, tyska, brittiska och belgiska soldater deltog i en kraftmätning som skulle kunna uppfattas som avgörande.Den tyska offensiven med mål att inringa den franska armén öster om Paris stoppades upp och i stället förvandlades västfronten till ett statiskt skyttegravskrig. Under en vecka dödades och skadades omkring 500 000 soldater.I detta avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden har Martin Hårdstedt och Peter Bennesved nått fram till Marneslaget i poddens serie om första världskriget.Den brittiska armén hade tillsammans med belgiska och franska styrkor fördröjt den tyska offensiven genom Belgien. Fransmännen hade efter den misslyckade offensiven in i Alsace-Lorraine återhämtat sig och genom kraftfull ledning från överbefälhavaren Joffre hunnit omgruppera och kunde stoppa tyskarnas försök att kringgå Paris och inringa hela den franska armén.Slaget blev dramatiskt och tyngden i det tyska anfallet var så stor att de brittiska och franska styrkorna var på gränsen till att övermannas. Chefen för en nyuppsatt fransk armé, den 9:e franska armén, generalen Foch meddelade i ett skede av striderna: ”Min högra flank är hårt pressad. Min center viker. Det är omöjligt att manövrera. Läget är utmärkt. Jag anfaller.” I dessa ord, möjligen en efterkonstruktion, sammanfattas det desperata läget. Det var inte frågan om att ge vika en meter. Då kunde hela fronten kollapsa.Förlusterna under slaget blev enorma. Artilleriet och kulsprutorna skadade och dödade hundratusentals soldater. Stridstaktiken kunde inte hantera de nya vapensystemen. Massiva linjeanfall mejades ner inom några minuter. Artilleriet skapade månlandskap där inget kavalleri kunde anfalla.När tyskarna fick klart för sig att det inte gick att bryta igenom och insåg att Schlieffenplanen, den operativa planen för att besegra Frankrike, hade misslyckats avgick Moltke som stabschef och Falkenhayn tog över. I efterdyningarna av Marneslaget inleddes en kapplöpning till Engelska kanalen som resulterade i nya blodiga slag – inte minst kring staden Ypres i Flandern. Fronten hade i november stelnat i en till synes ogenomtränglig skyttegravslinje.Bild: Tyska soldater (som bär karakteristiska pickelhuva-hjälmar med tygöverdrag) vid fronten under första slaget vid Marne under första världskriget, taget i september 1914. Möjligen iscensatt för kameran på grund av bärandet av medaljer, vilket enligt källan inte var vanlig praxis i strid. Wikipedia. Public Domain.Klippare: Emanuel Lehtonen Hosted on Acast.

THE TRAGEDY BEGINS: 1/8: Nick Lloyd, The Western Front: A History of the Great War, 1914-1918 https://www.amazon.com/Western-Front-History-Great-1914-1918/dp/B09NS2DT8X In this epic narrative history, the first volume in a groundbreaking trilogy on the Great War, the acclaimed military historian Nick Lloyd captures the horrific fighting on the Western Front beginning with the surprise German invasion of Belgium in August 1914 and taking us to the Armistice of November 1918. Drawing on French, British, German, and American sources, Lloyd weaves a kaleidoscopic chronicle of the Marne, Passchendaele, the Meuse-Argonne, and other critical battles, which reverberated across Europe and the wider war. From the trenches, where men as young as 17 suffered and died, to the headquarters behind the lines where Generals Haig, Joffre, Hindenburg, and Pershing developed their plans for battle, Lloyd gives us a view of the war both intimate and strategic, putting us amid the mud and smoke while at the same time depicting the larger stakes of every encounter. He shows us a dejected Kaiser Wilhelm II―soon to be eclipsed in power by his own generals―lamenting the botched Schlieffen Plan; French soldiers piling atop one another in the trenches of Verdun; British infantryman wandering through the frozen wilderness in the days after the Battle of the Somme; and General Erich Ludendorff pursuing a ruthless policy of total war, leading an eleventh-hour attack on Reims even as his men succumbed to the Spanish Flu. 1916
