On Saturday, the CEO of the favored messaging app Telegram was arrested at Le Bourget airport in France for refusing to adjust to the nation’s censorship legal guidelines.
Pavel Durov, 39, was arrested on the tarmac as he received off his non-public jet from Azerbaijan.
On Saturday night Mike Benz, the founder and Govt Director of the Basis for Freedom On-line launched a video explaining who he believes is behind this arrest – The US State Division.
Benz is an authority of the Deep State and the US authorities operations in Europe and overseas.
Mike Benz: I’m right here within the airport in Austin, and was simply on this area with Mario and Andrew Tate and kim. Com and a bunch of individuals. I needed to make a degree, however I believe they booted me earlier than I might say something, so I’m simply going to make it right here. On the information of Pavel’s arrest, the founding father of Telegram, that is one thing that I see going as much as the US State Division. Wow, shock, shock, that’s my take, however that’s what it’s.
One of many issues they’re speaking about within the area proper now could be what could be carried out. The actual fact is, the Home International Affairs Committee might subpoena or might demand as a part of its oversight all communications between the US Embassy in Paris, that’s the State Division’s department in France, for his or her communications with prosecutors or authorities officers about Havel’s arrest previous to the arrest.
As a result of I consider the State Division is, on the very least, if not outright pushing, collaborating on this political prosecution. The State Division has been going after Telegram. Now, they don’t need to shut Telegram down. Let me clarify this. Telegram is a double-edged sword for the State Division.
Telegram performed a serious function within the State Division’s fomenting of the Color Revolution in Belarus in the summertime of 2020. The Nationwide Endowment for Democracy, the US State Division, and USAID have been all funding the foremost organisers of the road riots in Belarus and utilizing Telegram as the principle channel to organise these road riots as a result of Telegram has such ubiquitous use in Japanese Europe, additionally in Russia, additionally in Ukraine. So that they beloved Telegram as a technique to organise, hire a riots, to destabilise Lukashenko’s authorities.
And I guess that they might do the identical in the event that they didn’t. I’m not conscious of it simply because I haven’t regarded into it. However I guess that when Alexei Navalny was deployed in opposition to Russia from his proper wing flank in organising peaceable protests in Russia. I guess Telegram was utilized by the State Division because the coordination then as a result of I do know that it was in Belarus. Now, however, the State Division pressured really astrtufed with tens of thousands and thousands of {dollars}, the authorities of Brazil, to deliver Telegram to its knees. Brazil handed a ban, really made it a criminal offense to entry Telegram for a number of weeks in 2022 till Telegram agreed to the brand new counter-misinformation legal guidelines that have been lobbied for by the US State Division’s NGO Tender Energy Swarm.
So what they need to do will not be kill Telegram like they needed to kill Wikileaks. They need to management it. And the issue was, is that they didn’t have the power to place enough stress on Pavel to interrupt his will. So he was dwelling in Dubai. Now they’ve leverage. I consider that’s the aim of this prosecution, to not set up a authorized precedent that each encrypted chat app, its founder, is personally answerable for all unlawful conversations or transactions on the platform, however moderately to power Telegram to change into WhatsApp.
That is what they did to WhatsApp, by the way in which. By means of this regulatory stress, WhatsApp is owned by Fb. They broke WhatsApps again. Now, because of this I at all times say, don’t say something on WhatsApp that you just don’t need placed on a Occasions Sq. Jumbotron, as a result of the entire thing is fed f*cking central. They broke it.
I watched that occur, by the way in which. The Atlantic Council performed an enormous function in that with seven CIA administrators on its board and annual funding from the Pentagon, the State Division, and CIA cutouts just like the NED. Sorry, I’m simply within the airport, so I’m trying round.
They didn’t need to shut down WhatsApp. Whatsapp is utilized by all people in Latin America and South America, and half in India. They need to management it, to have the ability to have their very own personnel in place to put in and oversee the insurance policies in each nation on Earth to be able to form the political outcomes from the within of each nation on Earth to find out their elections. That is what they did to WhatsApp and Telegram in Brazil.
Once I say they, I don’t imply the federal government of Brazil. I imply the US State Division, the US Embassy, the US-funded establishments just like the Atlantic Council, the Wilson Centre, the God, there’s one million of them. The Nationwide Democratic Institute, the Worldwide Republican Institute, the NED. Hundreds of those, a minimum of a whole lot that I’ve documented, have been all capacity-built. Then there’s The entire authorities programme, SETs, which you’re going to be studying much more about within the months forward. The $150 annual funds and $40 million of it was in Brazil to foyer for these censorship legal guidelines. I consider that they thought that they wanted leverage in opposition to Telegram to lastly be capable of deliver it beneath their management.
Keep in mind, this is essential within the State Division and the Pentagon’s view for profitable the warfare in opposition to Russia by way of Ukraine, as a result of all of the Russians use Telegram chats for the power to have a backdoor to entry.
Mike Benz additionally identified {that a} CIA cut-out is bragging in regards to the utility of arresting Pavel Durov and its significance in profitable the globalist’s army warfare in opposition to Russia.
