Recently I wrote how anti-terror investigators were closing in on Russian operatives who had allegedly been hired by Tesla to light infrastructure fires in Germany.

The loose theory was Tesla had used the operation to shut-down its factory and save money (while claiming bogus losses), to also falsely implicate “leftist” groups to sow political conflict and garner AfD (Nazi party) support, and to test attacks on critical infrastructure (e.g. effectiveness of sending swarms of unsold Tesla cars as chemical explosive cluster munitions into Berlin).

Now some of those details are being released by Intel agencies to raise awareness of the overall Tesla/Russia campaign.

In April, two German-Russian nationals were arrested for allegedly plotting bomb and arson attacks on targets including US military facilities on behalf of Russia.

In London in March, several men were charged with working with Russian intelligence services to set fire to a Ukrainian-linked warehouse. Poland is investigating whether an arson attack that destroyed Warsaw’s largest mall in May was connected to Russia and has arrested nine people in connection with Russia-linked acts of sabotage, the prime minister said in May. And French authorities last month detained a Russian-Ukrainian man who was allegedly building bombs as part of a sabotage campaign orchestrated by Moscow.

The news also reveals these agencies have thwarted Russian assassination attempts on business leaders who are helping Ukraine.

Notably, in terms of disinformation and censorship tactics from Russia, the anti-Ukraine Tesla CEO has repeatedly falsely tried to claim he alone is the most in danger of assassination.

…this seeming fixation with an untimely demise become his chief justification for banning the Twitter accounts of several high-profile mainstream journalists, including CNN’s Donie O’Sullivan, The New York Times’ Ryan Mac, and The Washington Post’s Drew Harwell. Musk accused the tech reporters of sharing “my exact real-time location, basically assassination coordinates.” Keith Olbermann, Mashable’s Matt Binder, The Intercept’s Micah Lee, Voice of America’s Steve Herman, and Aaron Rupar were among the other prominent pundits, reporters, and popular Twitter users suspended last night.

Technically reporters were sharing news about a Twitter account Elon Musk disliked, and so — instead of simply censoring that one account he disagreed with — anyone who dared to report about that account as news was silenced by Musk in a politically-driven mass-censorship campaign.
