Mike Benz: US State Department Is Behind the Arrest of Telegram CEO in France – “I Believe the State Dept., at the Very Least, – Is Participating in this Political Prosecution” (VIDEO) | The Gateway Pundit

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 may 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 completed. The very fact is, the Home International Affairs Committee may subpoena or may 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 significant position 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 had been all funding the key 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. In order that they cherished Telegram as a option to organise, lease a riots, to destabilise Lukashenko’s authorities.

And I wager that they might do the identical in the event that they didn’t. I’m not conscious of it simply because I haven’t seemed into it. However I wager that when Alexei Navalny was deployed towards Russia from his proper wing flank in organising peaceable protests in Russia. I wager Telegram was utilized by the State Division because the coordination then as a result of I do know that it was in Belarus. Now, alternatively, the State Division pressured truly astrtufed with tens of hundreds of thousands of {dollars}, the government of Brazil, to bring Telegram to its knees. Brazil handed a ban, truly 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 had been lobbied for by the US State Division’s NGO Mushy Energy Swarm.

So what they need to do isn’t 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 liable for all unlawful conversations or transactions on the platform, however slightly to pressure Telegram to turn into WhatsApp.

That is what they did to WhatsApp, by the best way. By this regulatory stress, WhatsApp is owned by Fb. They broke WhatsApps again. Now, for this reason I at all times say, don’t say something on WhatsApp that you just don’t need placed on a Instances Sq. Jumbotron, as a result of the entire thing is fed f*cking central. They broke it.

I watched that occur, by the best way. The Atlantic Council performed an enormous position 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 wanting round.

They didn’t need to shut down WhatsApp. Whatsapp is utilized by everyone 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 with a view 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. 1000’s of those, at the least tons of that I’ve documented, had 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 towards Telegram to lastly have the ability to convey it below their management.

Bear in mind, this is essential within the State Division and the Pentagon’s view for profitable the warfare towards 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.
