Of course, there's nothing new about this.

It looks like they use arrests for weak and fake charges for espionage. This goes above the level of surveillance and into the realm of espionage by "jack-booted thugs". Gee, I wonder where all the "freedom lovers" are? I don't hear any outrage from them. I guess it's okay if the "God-Emperor" does it.

And of course bad actors from Israel enable it all. That's been happening for many years.
