“[Russian] information operations are underway […] to gradually demoralise the public debate so that Russian narratives can be disseminated. These are part of an information war to stop the flow of material aid to a struggling Ukraine,” warned the Czech National Centre for Combating Organised Crime (NCOZ) in a report.

“The Kremlin’s efforts to diminish public trust in institutions and the state is not new, but the increase in the intensity of influence operations is a threat,” the Czech Strategic Communications Coordinator Otakar Foltýn said in reaction to the NCOZ report.

  • According to the NCOZ, Russian activities are aimed at influencing the population of Western European countries while increasing the threat of sabotage against critical and transport infrastructure, with local residents and criminal networks are becoming more involved in various activities.

  • These include gathering information, identifying targets, putting pressure on specific individuals, such as those from the exiled diaspora, and even direct attacks on infrastructure and public places.

  • “This issue has been persistent for several years, with Russian and Chinese influence attempting to infiltrate Czech society,” Jurečka said. “We must cultivate a society that can critically think, resist disinformation, and not succumb to fear,” Jurečka added.

    The Kremlin is obviously a Mosque. Pooty-poo’s BFF and primary assassin (word origin, Muslim) is Kadyrov, a Muslim. St. Petersburg at one time held the highest Jewish metropolitan population in the world. It says it’s Christian but Patriarch Kirill likes to wear Rolex and is covered in tattoos.

    Russia has had uninterrupted continuous control of the North Pole, the geographic center of Nation State power (Northern Hemisphere), probably since 900, and brags about this fact and the fact they can destroy the whole world with nuclear technology making it the primary terrorist, by definition, in the world.

    Russia invented the modern prison industrial complex, the Gulag. Russia invented Nation-State PyOps. Russia had for nearly a century or more, total control of Afghanistan, the first place where Marijjuana was cultivated, same parallel/latitude as Humbolt County California. Afghanistan, also one of the first places were Poppy Fields were cultivated en-masse. Academic Historians will say Russia failed there, I say the opposite.

    Now here is something wierd and fun to investiage for internet slueths!

    If you are an internet afficionado you’ve noticed over two decades that Google and nearly all other search engines routed all conspiracy theories to really one place, Godlikeproductions. In this place, this forum, run out of the island Nation of Jersey, which is self governing…you cannot post two words, “Tavistock”, the British The Tavistock Institute and “Bolshevik” as in Revoluion. Don’t believe me, try it yourself.

    Spending a couple hours reading that legendary conspiracy forum you’ll notice two things: It loves Trump and Russia. If you go against either of those things there, your logical argument will be minimzed/trivialized, your life threatened, and reputation ridiculted, sometimes with very personal insults. You can just read/lurk and see how many times a life threat is made in one day on that site.

    If nothing else, it’s a fantastic study in psychology as it’s visited daily by people all over the world. Try to see how many other words are banned!
