“For years, it has been stated in various scientific, educational, and political centers around the world that the existence and legitimacy of Israel as the ‘only democracy in the Middle East’ is based on UN resolutions and international laws. Now, this ‘only law-abiding democracy in the region,’ by killing more than 41,000 Palestinians over the past year and conducting air and ground assaults on Lebanon, shreds the UN Charter at the General Assembly with a paper shredder and then bans the UN Secretary-General as an anti-Israel Secretary-General. Israel’s logic is the logic of Hitler’s Germany and Stalin’s Soviet Union: whoever is not with us is against us. A clear example of a rogue state.”

The Russian invasion of Ukraine has been a driving force in markets for the past few weeks. He floated the idea of restricting the use of Telegram in Ukraine and Russia, a suggestion that was met with fierce opposition from users. Shortly after, Durov backed off the idea. As a result, the pandemic saw many newcomers to Telegram, including prominent anti-vaccine activists who used the app's hands-off approach to share false information on shots, a study from the Institute for Strategic Dialogue shows. What distinguishes the app from competitors is its use of what's known as channels: Public or private feeds of photos and videos that can be set up by one person or an organization. The channels have become popular with on-the-ground journalists, aid workers and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who broadcasts on a Telegram channel. The channels can be followed by an unlimited number of people. Unlike Facebook, Twitter and other popular social networks, there is no advertising on Telegram and the flow of information is not driven by an algorithm. This provided opportunity to their linked entities to offload their shares at higher prices and make significant profits at the cost of unsuspecting retail investors.
