>What happened?
A bunch of Nafris and Niggers raided the Louvre and took priceless jewels belonging to the reincarnation of mars NAPOLEON
>How did they do it?
The intruders intruders entered the museum at around 9:30 a.m. by forcing open a window, and escaped the scene on motorbikes. The closure was “a security measure and to preserve traces and clues for the investigation,” it said in a statement.

they archived mine so i'll drop a summary:

Four masked robbers stormed Louvre Museum using a forklift, a chainsaw, and a freight elevator.

They made off with priceless jewels from the Napoleonic collection, then escaped on T-Max scooters toward the Seine Quays.
Everything lasted 7 minutes.

Confirmed to be stolen, 9 objects:
Napoleon/Empress jewels from two cases with approximate prices:
- Empress Eugénie’s Diamond Bow Brooch ((€6.72m)
- Empress Marie-Louise’s Emerald Necklace & Earrings (€3.70m)
- Empress Eugénie’s Shoulder Brooch (€1m)
- Empress Eugénie’s Pearl & Diamond Tiara (€$400k)
- 5 unknown
+ Eugénie’s crown (retrieved but damaged) (€20-30m)

Total for now=€12m or $14m + ??
Black market resell price (~10%)=€1-2m + ??

Not taken:
Regent diamond ($140m)

Total Louvre security personnel=1200 (50% of all personnel)
Gender split= 60% women/40% men
Race %= not published
Estimated active on a Sunday morning= ~300–350 people
Estimated guards= 1 guard per 3–6 rooms on a Sunday morning

They entered straight from the room window and were out in 4-7 minutes.

definitely someone related to the construction workers and/or security guards:
- How tf do you know there's a crane truck right outside the window? How do you know to operate it so well for the entire op to last 5 minutes?
- They used a disc cutter. I've used many and if you are not into construction you kill yourself with those things. Also how did they know that they needed one for average looking windows?
- How did they know there was no armed security inside right after museum opening? They couldn't even see inside before cutting the window.

the question is why they didn't take the most expensive thing in there. (€140m diamond) we still don't know if they took the other €40m diamond

This infuriates me.
We are rapidly exiting the golden age of art availability via museums and direct sensory access (ie, being able to visit and perceive a work of art directly). It is entirely due to the creation of low trust societies.
When activists attack works of art, nobody present stops them.
When thieves break into glass cases, nobody present stops them.
If I were there, Apollo himself would descend upon me and I would do unspeakable things to the defilers. Sadly I've never been present at such times, except to scold retards getting too close to paintings or touching sculptures.

Jews in power want to punish white people, not a single white french can tolerate those animals but they are a protected class and protected by the police. Indigenous French people live under occupation.

How do you hope to fence such high profile and unique items? Surely wherever the good appear will set off alarms?

>a sense of belonging lets you get away with a lot
You would be surprised. There are other, even more subtle and sophisticated tricks one can use. Some people are naturals. Look up Derren Brown and what her was able to get away with, but he's a psycho who luckily for us has a good heart.

They had to have had an insider, you don't do anything without some insider information that is only know to few and through which you can then find a weak point and abuse it to your benefit. These things are usually meticulously planned to the smallest detail that they are able to control. Some foreign organized crime team probably, i would almost dare say they are locals, from Paris.
