Major Psy-Op in Europe Exposed: UK Government Tramples on Values It Vowed to Protect<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/header>\n

Those who have been saying that the West has turned Russia into a scapegoat to be blamed for each and every thing that goes wrong have been proved right. We have witnessed concocted stories invented to denigrate Moscow that have gone viral as directed by the secret services. The UK, the country that is spearheading the anti-Russian information campaign, offers a\u00a0good example that illustrates how this is being done.<\/p>\n

An online group of hackers known as Anonymous has just revealed covert UK activities in the EU. According to\u00a0the documents released by that group,\u00a0<\/a>London is in the midst of a major program to interfere in the internal affairs of EU members, the US, and Canada. Anonymous threatens to release more information on the clandestine operations of the UK government, unless it agrees to remove the shroud of secrecy protecting those information-warfare efforts. On Nov. 24 Twitter deleted RT comments on the issue. The UK knows it has friends it can rely on in a crunch.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Integrity Initiative<\/a>\u00a0is a London-based organization set up and funded by the government-friendly\u00a0Institute for Statecraft<\/a>,\u00a0in cooperation with the Free University of Brussels (VUB) to wage information-warfare operations against Russia. Anonymous calls it a “large-scale information secret service.” It\u00a0aims<\/a>\u00a0to\u00a0\u201cchange attitudes in Russia itself<\/a>\u201d\u00a0as well as the influence of Russian natives living abroad. The Integrity Initiative\u2019s budget for\u00a0the fiscal year ending on\u00a0March 31, 2019 is estimated at\u00a0\u00a31.96 million ($2.51 million). The network has received grants from NATO, the US State Department, and Facebook.<\/p>\n

The Initiative\u2019s operations have been kept under wraps. Its activities are conducted by \u201cclusters\u201d of local politicians, journalists, military personnel, scientists, and academics involved in anti-Russian propaganda efforts. The\u00a0list<\/a>\u00a0includes William Browder, a US-British businessman convicted in absentia in Russia for tax evasion.<\/p>\n
