"Senseless controversies (racist, or so-called racist, versus antiracist) into which they wanted to drag me and in which they unscrupulously used me, have been blighting my life since December. Indeed, under the direction of linguist Jean Haudry a “Centre d’études indo-européennes” (Centre for Indo-European Studies), which is both mediocre and compromising, has been founded at the Université de Lyon-III. Jean Varenne lords over it. Furthermore, a group of Jews, some young and some not so young, are busy composing sadly authentic Protocoles . . . Look at the journal—4 issues per year—Le Genre humain and the Léon Poliakov publication that appeared in Brussels (with Olender as editor!). How miserable!"
