West Germany: A Single Christian Monk in Lützerath – Takes on the Police in a Muddy Field! (20.7.2023)

A Dramatic Application of ‘Peace’ Prevails in a Muddy Field!

Translator’s Note: I was told about this interesting individual via an ‘Anarchist Activist’ Telegram Channel! I have no idea if he is a monk – but I doubt it – as such ‘Catholic’ monastics have to follow struct Monastic Rules usually derived from a famous Saint. Furthermore, I am not a supporter of Anarchism – as I think this is merely the ideology of hyper-individualism, almost always right-wing – and an expression of the Bourgeois system. Nevertheless, the careful use of ‘force’ here is interesting – as there is NO come-back from the State! ACW (20.7.2023)

A Christian monk is filmed in a muddy field in Lützerath!

On Saturday, January 14th, 2023 – a ‘Protester’ wearing the brown robe of a Christian monk – pushed a Police Officer ‘over’ in a muddy field whilst repeatedly ‘goading’ the other Law Enforcement Officers present! The severe muddy conditions meant that the monk could not be ‘arrested’ by the Police – and therefore his identity could not be ascertained!

At the beginning of 2018 – he was already protesting against the eviction of a Protest Camp in the Notre-Dame-des-Landes in western France! At that time, citizens wanted to prevent the construction of a Regional Airport – and they actually succeeded! The government finally abandoned the project!

The ‘monk’ – a Picture Passed Around on Internet!

There is even a photograph of the monk standing in defiance on a French field! According to the newspaper “Le Monde” – he is said to have poured a total of three buckets of water on Police Officers that day – and declared this as a ‘Baptism Ceremony’!

A video from that time has also been preserved that shows the monk reciting a political poem in the finest French for several minutes:

Wer ist der Mönch von Lützerath?

Am Samstag, den 14.01.2023, schubste ein Demonstrant in braunem Mönchskostüm einen Polizisten in den Matsch und neckte wiederholt die Exekutive. Er konnte von der Polizei nicht festgenommen werden und seine Identität wird daher im Dunkeln bleiben…

Anfang 2018 protestierte er bereits gegen die Räumung eines Protestcamps im westfranzösischen Notre-Dame-des-Landes. Damals wollten Bürger den Bau eines Regionalflughafens verhindern, es gelang ihnen tatsächlich, die Regierung gab das Projekt schließlich auf. ✌

Von dem Mönch auf dem französischen Acker existiert sogar ein Foto. Laut der Zeitung „Le Monde“ soll er an jenem Tag insgesamt drei Eimer Wasser auf Polizisten geschüttet und dieses als Taufzeremonie deklariert haben. ❤️ Außerdem ist von damals ein Video erhalten, das den Mönch beim minutenlangen Aufsagen eines politischen Gedichts in feinstem Französisch zeigt:
