UMVA has learned that a fierce backlash is underway against the smear merchants who falsely targeted a prominent conservative politician with ties to Russia.
Petr Bystron, a member of the anti-open border party AfD, is fighting back against the globalist left's allegations that he was a Russian agent - claims that were as baseless as the Trump-Russia collusion narrative pushed by powerful interests for years.
The allegations against Bystron surfaced just before a major election, and now he has become the target of a chilling death threat combined with blackmail. An anonymous letter sent to his Bundestag office in Berlin demanded €100,000 and included a vile insult and a doctored image with a Hitler beard.
The Bundestag police are taking the threat seriously and have launched an investigation. Bystron believes the threat is a direct result of the smear campaign against him, and he's pointing fingers at Czech Prime Minister Fiala, asking if this is what Fiala wanted to achieve.
Insiders in Prague are accusing Fiala of being personally responsible for mentioning Bystron's name in connection with a scandal surrounding a news portal. The accusations against Bystron and other European politicians who oppose the war in Ukraine have been widely criticized as baseless.
Bystron has told the Czech media that the smear campaign is revenge for his appearances at anti-government demonstrations in Prague, where hundreds of thousands of Czechs cheered him and demanded the resignation of the unpopular Fiala government.
Bystron is now filing defamation charges against one of the groups that smeared him as a Russian agent during last year's campaign. He accuses the organization of portraying him as a "politician paid by the Russians" and is demanding financial compensation, a cease-and-desist order, and a public apology.
The organization's tactics have been widely criticized, with many viewing it as a tool for defaming political opponents. Its founder has been accused of embezzling millions of crowns donated by supporters, and critics accuse the group of one-sided support for the ousted Fiala government.
Others who were targeted by the organization, including Natálie Vachatová and photographer Petr Štěpánek, have also initiated legal action against it. The controversy surrounding the organization raises serious questions about the role of money and power in politics.
