It should, but it won't, because Durov's political kidnapping is only the latest in a series of criminal acts that Europe's “garden of the world” (sic) has perpetrated against its own peoples and against the peoples of other unfortunate nations.
Indeed, think of Europe's continued participation in the colonial wars that the Israel-US Axis has fought to redesign the Middle East and the Arab world in an effort to transform ordered state structures into a chaotic amalgam prey to sectarianism and internecine wars. Or let us think of the scientific destruction of Tito's Yugoslavia, mini-federal Europe and an eyesore in the larger Europe of banks; of the ensuing season of Balkan wars and the armed intervention against Milosevich's Serbia that ended with the death of the Serbian leader himself in prison in The Hague. Let us also think of the very long years of economic torture that Greece has endured, with the complicity of local quislings, in a vain attempt to repay a usurers‘ foreign debt for the sole purpose of saving that noose around the peoples’ neck called the ‘euro’: Greece still exists on paper, occasionally making its voice heard but without anyone really paying attention, and so the home of Pericles and Socrates, the cradle of philosophy that gave so much to humanity in the past, today seems to belong more to an oblivion under narcosis than to the consortium of living nations. Finally, let us not forget the management of Covid that the European Union has imposed on its peoples by increasing the victims of the epidemic instead of decreasing them and squandering a centuries-old capital of legal civilization, the insistence on the stupidity of climate change and the excess of the world population, themes that are so dear to the Malthusian Darwinists of the Fabian Society which, surprise?, has as its symbol a wolf disguised as a lamb.
Legend has it that Pavel Durov left Russia so as not to submit to the same demands made on him later by the European Commission, to which he was more amenable by, for example, blocking the broadcasting of certain Russian media channels at the start of the military intervention in Donbass. Evidently, it is not enough to be helpful but one really has to grovel. Ironically, it was not the current occupant of the Kremlin who plotted Durov's arrest but the judiciary of a once illustrious nation that saw too long ago an immense Émile Zola proclaim his eternal indictment against the injustice suffered by an innocent Dreyfuss.
Mikhail Ulyanov, Permanent Representative of the Russian Federation to the international organizations in Vienna was lapidary in one of his posts on X:
“Some naive persons still don’t understand that if they play more or less visible role in international information space it is not safe for them to visit countries which move towards much more totalitarian societies.”
Ambassador Ulyanov is very harsh in his assessment but it is not possible to say that he is wrong.
However, there is not only Telegram. The EU also has a score to settle with Elon Musk, whom it has repeatedly accused of not being compliant enough with the demands that the (sic) European elites make of him. Here is the next step, as prophesied on X by blogger ZeroEdge:
“Durov's arrest is a trial balloon for how Europe will go after Musk”
Elon Musk himself has few illusions about what his future might be.
Robert Kennedy Jr, grandson of the president assassinated in Dallas and third son of his equally assassinated brother in Los Angeles and who has very recently declared his support for Trump's re-election, says:
“France just arrested Pavel Durov, founder & CEO of the encrypted, uncensored Telegram platform. The need to protect free speech has never been more urgent.”
Shortly before Pavel Durov's arrest, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a decree by which Russia will provide assistance to all those who can no longer accept neo-liberal attitudes in their countries that contradict traditional values. Perhaps the opening ceremony of the last Olympic Games crystallised this idea but it is clear that the situation will worsen to its critical point.
I wonder then when the EU will impose a Soviet Union-style ban on expatriation on its citizens, clearly for their own safety. When will it close the borders of its individual states allowing only small and selected movements to equally small and selected groups of reliable citizens.
When will we then have our season of dissidents, prisoners and political persecuted in a Europe that has finally become the filthy technocratic gulag it so badly wants to be?
