The Fascist History Behind Dominique Venner’s Suicide at Notre Dame - The Daily Beast


The Fascist History Behind Dominique Venner’s Suicide at Notre Dame - The Daily Beast: "A veteran of French neo-fascist groups, Venner was a longtime militant of the far right who had gradually eased into a new life as a respected historian, known for his expertise on weapons and hunting. But his suicide manifesto, as well as a blog post he published earlier that morning, took him directly back to the dark themes that drove his life: the “great replacement of the people of France” and the prospect of France “falling into the hands of Islamists.” He praised an upcoming protest of France’s new law legalizing gay marriage, which he called “detestable.”"
