“First of all, we want to punish at last for betraying our homeland, due to the fact that so far it was only criminal to participate in a abroad interview. (...) We must precede the creation by the fishy of a defence line of covering ourselves with ignorance about the transfer of information to a abroad intelligence."
And then, “It is frequently that the fishy explains that he did not know that he was providing information that could harm his own country... we want to punish unintentional espionage, preparing for espionage, reporting ourselves ready for espionage, and besides want to improvement intelligence activities,” said Minister of Justice and associate of Solid Poland in an interview with Radio Maria “Our Journal” Marcin Warchol.
In the same interview, the Deputy Minister says, "We introduce the definition of intelligence activities into the Criminal Code. There will be punishment for participating in a abroad interview, but besides for conducting intelligence activities as a squad of behaviors undertaken to harm their own homeland. With respect to the betrayal of the homeland, a very common crime, unfortunately, there were no rules that would let specified behaviour to be punished." The punishment for betraying our homeland should be severe – I have no uncertainty about it. And it shouldn't depend on who the traitor works for. Equally disgusting is an American, Israeli, or Russian agent. But the interview for “Our Journal” and the announcements of the Deputy Minister are very worrying. It's like punishing a robbery that didn't happen. The definition proposed by Warchoł is simply a madness that allows to destruct any competitor or criticism on the political, economical or journalistic stage. It's maccartism in a pure edition.
Recall that a erstwhile close associate of the late Deputy Prime Minister Andrzej Lepper – Mateusz Piskorski. This publicist and politician publically advocated deeper cooperation with Russia and China. He criticized our membership of NATO or the presence of American troops in our country. He didn't hide his views. It was rather the opposite, he emphasized it and overshadowed it. Despite this, he was arrested and sat without a conviction in custody for 3 years. Mateusz Piskorski promoted his views, lobbied for his political option, acted to gain fresh supporters, i.e. he did what any another publicist or politician in Poland did. However, it was considered that his views were contrary to the Polish state ration. And surely with the direction of government policy. And it was decided to destruct him from the publicist and political scene.
On the side of Lepper's erstwhile co-worker, they were even displeased usually by NATO and EU critics specified as the UN Human Rights Council. Matthew Piskorski's lawyers wrote a request for an opinion to the UN Human Rights Council. The Council recommended to address the Arbitrary Detentions Working Group. The group examined the substance and sent respective twelve pages to the Polish government saying that "Mr Piskorski's social and political activity, even related to the dissemination of unpopular or incompatible views of the current parliamentary majority, was in line with fundamental civilian liberties".
Piskorski was defended by politicians from both sides of the barricades of Ikonovich and Korwin-Mikke. And rightly due to the fact that it is an unacceptable practice in any democratic country. Today, Piskorski responds from the free foot, and the process itself is likely to be very long. It will most likely end with a disgrace to the Polish justice strategy and a immense compensation for the erstwhile MP of Self-defense. However, if there was a law at the time, which Warchol is talking about, Piskorski would have spent many years in prison sentenced as a spy of Russia, China and God knows who. After all, the definition of espionage presented by theziobic deputy minister is so broad and capacious that it contains practically all anti-government action. In particular, anti-government "public opinion formation", including criticism of government abroad policy in Poland. Criticism of MFA activities, Prime Minister, president may be recognized as an action for a abroad state. Today, spying could be considered to be criticism of excessive financial commitment on the part of Ukraine, criticism of interior policy towards the Orthodox minority, or opposition to the limitation of German language learning hours.
The madness in this substance surprises and concerns the silence of the parliamentary opposition. Politicians who are critics of the government, and those who stay silent about this bill act like polite carpies in the bathtub before Christmas Eve. After all, as spies, the camp that governs Poland will indicate not only the 1 who bothers them Grzegorz Braun or Janusz Korwin-Mikke, but any associate of the Civic Platform or the Polish People's Party. There's always a pretext. After all, many of them are scholarship holders of various foundations, and practically everyone participated in any global political meetings. It is adequate to argue that he spoke negatively about government abroad policy in the conversation. It is apparent that the camp presently governing Poland decides who is and who is not a traitor. We cannot number on the decency of the political class of the 3rd Republic on this issue, which confirms impertinent provocation towards the Polish Prime Minister Joseph Oleksi Many years ago.
I am writing to “Polish Thoughts”, due to the fact that besides this well-deserved paper for Poland and Poles is talked about by professional spies' trackers about absurd matters. This is most likely due to the fact that Mateusz Piskorski writes here, which has become a large problem for the current rulers. The website of the Centre for investigation on the Modern Environment includes the text ‘ Current activity of media centres lobbying in Poland Russian disinformation message – environmental consolidation continues“ The acceleration of this process is now apparent. Environments trying to influence various layers of Polish society lobbying through online platforms de facto the same propaganda narratives (congruent with Russian), focus on directing social ferment towards stimulating anti-American and anti-Ukrainian sentiments. In fact, they effort to convince Polish citizens that only the anti-American and anti-Ukrainian (de facto pro-Russian) course of Polish policy can correspond to the interests of Poles. The transmissions relating to the accomplishment of these objectives with expanding strength are lobbied by Dr. Leszek Sykulski. In fact, this individual became a “tube” resonating in Poland messages converging with Russian. any kind of apogee of activity by Dr. L. Sykulski became actions dated 31.10.2022, in which he and another people active in pro-Russian activities became the key popularizer of the hashtag "StopAmericanizationPolish". ...
It is worth noting here that Dr. L. Sykulski's activities involve, among others, the environments connected with the portal "Myśl Polska" (which we described as harmful to Poland many times) and with the Polish-speaking Russian portal "Sputnik". The links between “Sputnik” and “Poland’s Thought” are clear and come down to the cooperation of “Polish Thoughts” with erstwhile colleagues of “Sputnik”. 1 example is the cooperation of “Polish Thought” with “Sputink” co-worker Agnieszka Piwar.” It is worth noting that this institution as partners indicates – fresh Geopolitics investigation Network, the Foundation of the Polish-Ukraine investigation Centre, the "Institute of Post-Information Society", the European Association and the celebrated Center for Political investigation "Doctrine". Part of the texts on the website are covered by the conviction "Public task financed by the Ministry of abroad Affairs of the Republic of Poland" Texts of this kind are frequently the foundation, which is later utilized for legal actions (although illegal) against the entities described. Law enforcement authorities then mention that "security experts have already pointed out ..."
I want you perseverance in your work for the good of Poland.
