HOMMAGE A PIERRE SEMARDCheminot, celle que j\u2019habitais \u00e0 Paris enjambait la rue Pierre S\u00e9mard o\u00f9 \u00e9tait le si\u00e8ge en ce temps de la f\u00e9d\u00e9ration CGT des cheminots dont il fut le secr\u00e9taire, et tout \u00e0 fait par hasard je suis venu m\u2019installer ici en Touraine non loin du Lieu o\u00f9 il travailla et fut arr\u00eat\u00e9. Je d\u00e9couvris il y a longtemps la plaque comm\u00e9morative de l\u2019\u00e9v\u00e8nement sur le quai de la gare de loches, et depuis que j\u2019en suis inform\u00e9 je ne manquerai pour rien au monde la petite c\u00e9r\u00e9monie m\u00e9morielle qui lui est faite chaque ann\u00e9e.Je remercie les communistes Lochois d\u2019aujourd\u2019hui de perp\u00e9tuer la m\u00e9moire de leurs combattants d\u2019hier.Il convient de souligner, car le fait est insuffisamment connu, que Pierre S\u00e9mard qui fut ex\u00e9cut\u00e9 par les Allemands aux ann\u00e9es noires de l\u2019occupation, s\u00e9journait alors dans une prison Fran\u00e7aise dont il fut extrait pour \u00eatre livr\u00e9 comme otage, par les autorit\u00e9s fran\u00e7aises elles-m\u00eames, et fusill\u00e9 pour des faits dans lesquels il ne pouvait avoir aucune esp\u00e8ce de responsabilit\u00e9 puisque incarc\u00e9r\u00e9.Nous faisons cette c\u00e9l\u00e9bration ici, non pas sur le lieu de son ex\u00e9cution, \u00e0 Evreux, mais sur celui de son arrestation. Or si les allemands auxquels il fut livr\u00e9 l\u2019ex\u00e9cut\u00e8rent certes le 7 mars 1942, ce sont des policiers fran\u00e7ais qui l\u2019avaient appr\u00e9hend\u00e9 en Novembre 1939, soit deux ans et demi avant. C\u2019est gla\u00e7ant de constater comment d\u2019une \u00e9poque \u00e0 l\u2019autre des fonctionnaires de police ob\u00e9issent sans \u00e9tats d\u2019\u00e2me aux ordres les plus criminels, les plus insens\u00e9s ou les plus ubuesques du pouvoir en place. Quels motifs invoqu\u00e9s justifi\u00e8rent son arrestation ? Une ignoble plainte pour d\u00e9tournement de fonds d\u00e9pos\u00e9e par ses anciens camarades conf\u00e9d\u00e9r\u00e9s qui l\u2019avaient exclu et, surtout, d\u2019infraction au d\u00e9cret de dissolution du parti communiste survenu le 26 septembre 1939 \u00e0 la suite de la signature du pacte Germano\/sovi\u00e9tique. ?Pierre S\u00e9mard \u00e9tait un syndicaliste et un militant r\u00e9volutionnaire, comme l\u2019\u00e9taient les communistes de ce temps. S\u2019\u00e9tait un d\u00e9fenseur de l\u2019id\u00e9al socialiste et des libert\u00e9s car alors les deux concepts \u00e9taient encore indissociables. Et c\u2019est \u00e0 ces raisons glorieuses que les autorit\u00e9s Fran\u00e7aises, (gouvernement Daladier), le firent incarc\u00e9rer et \u00ab s\u2019en d\u00e9barrass\u00e8rent \u00bb en le livrant aux forces d\u2019occupation. .Le plus grand hommage que l\u2019on puisse rendre \u00e0 Pierre, c\u2019est de rester nous-m\u00eame debout, fiers et inflexibles face \u00e0 l\u2019adversit\u00e9 pour d\u00e9fendre, aujourd\u2019hui encore o\u00f9 elle est attaqu\u00e9, la libert\u00e9 au nom de laquelle il fut supplici\u00e9. Le plus grand hommage que l\u2019on puisse rendre \u00e0 Pierre c\u2019est de ne pas se laisser abuser par les ennemis en marche de la libert\u00e9 qui avancent \u00e0 pr\u00e9sent masqu\u00e9s et tentent de justifier leurs crimes par de pr\u00e9tendues pr\u00e9occupations sanitaires.Patrick Seignon Samedi 6 mars 2021.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
