US Govt-funded religious watchdog USCIRF is to  publish a report TODAY & will likely designate India CPC. Again!

USCIRF, an evangelical flavour org, is infiltrated by Islamists – so much so that now an active member of Muslim Brotherhood joins as Commissioner!

A Thread: Image
#USCIRF has hired Mohamed Magid, former head of Muslim Brotherhood-affiliated Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) as Commissioner in Aug’22. He has served as VP & President of ISNA between 2010-14 and still attends ISNA events!

ISNA has proven terror connections, including with Hamas which the front has admitted itself! Its name was also implicated in the Holy Land Foundation case of terror funding. HLF was banned by the US govt for its ties with Hamas

مہرباں ہو کے بلا لو مجھے چاہو جس وقت
میں گیا وقت نہیں ہوں کہ پھر آ بھی نہ سکوں

ضعف میں طعنہ اغیار کا شکوہ کیا ہے
بات کچھ سر تو نہیں ہے کہ اٹھا بھی نہ سکوں

زہر ملتا ہی نہیں مجھ کو ستم گر ورنہ
کیا قسم ہے ترے ملنے کی کہ کھا بھی نہ سکوں
Shahmukhi
مِٹّھیاں ہوکےسد لےمینوں بھانویں کیہڑےویلے
میں کوئی لنگھیا ویلانئیں جو پرت کےآنئیں سکدا

بےہمتی دا مہنا دیندے غیراں داکیہہ شکوہ
گلّ آخر گلّ اے سِر تے نئیں جِنّھوں چانئیں سکدا

مَوہرا کدھروں لبھدا نئیں بیدردا مینوں نئیں تے
ایہہ کوئی تیرےملن دی سونہہ اے جیہڑی کھا نئیں سکدا

زبانِ اوست ترکی گوی و من ترکی نمیدانم
چہ خوش بودی اگر بودی زبانش در دہانِ من

Her tongue speaks Turkish, and Turkish I do not know. Oh what joy it would be if her tongue were in my mouth!
