1️⃣ #Unit400 is the special forces unit of the #QudsForce, focused on planning and conducting attacks outside #Iran. Within this remit, it also takes responsibility for transferring #military aid to terror and #guerrilla organisations around the world...
2️⃣ and coordinating their activities in order to prepare them to carry out attacks that serve the interests of the Iranian regime...

The HQ of #QudsForce's #Unit400 is in southeast #Tehran (Iran) The office run by the unit commander, Hamed Abdallahi.
3️⃣ Both the #IRGC and #QudsForce have been secretive and #Iran keeps most, if not all, of their activities and resources well guarded. However, given the #military unit’s expansive operations, they developed another section within the organisation for more specialised operations.
4️⃣ This section is known as #Unit400, which is believed to be a clandestine unit of the #QudsForce under the direct command of the Supreme Leader of #Iran.  Specifically, this Unit is employed to seek out #Western targets across the world.
5️⃣ A 2012 report investigated the botched #Bangkok plot to assassinate #Israeli diplomats in #Thailand, revealing that Majid Alavi, a former deputy #Iranian intelligence minister, “shifted to the #QudsForce [2012] and along with [Hamed] Abdollahi,..
6️⃣ a commander accused in the Washington plot,” operates #Unit400, which is “known as the Special Operations Unit.” According to State Department cables, Alavi also spied on dissidents living in #London and #LosAngeles.
7️⃣ Additionally, the 2012 report obtained information from #US. officials that #Unit400 “conducts sensitive covert operations abroad [that] include #terroristattacks, #assassinations, #kidnappings and #sabotage.”
8️⃣ They have also supplied #Iraqi #Shiite militants, as well as “#weapons, #equipment, #training and #funds to #Afghan insurgents…and also arranges the delivery of lethal aid into #Syria and #Lebanon and military training for #Hezbollah and #Palestinian militants.”
9️⃣ Hence, the #QudsForce has expanded its network to include a tight unit for the sole purpose of targeting westerners.  The #Arbabsiar plot as well as those afterwards continue to show the #IRGC and Quds Force ambitions, though also indicative of their limits.
🔟 Ali Moghtaderi.

31 years old (born in 1931), from #Tehran.
Passoprt number: N22810289
Ali Moghtaderi is a field operative in #QudsForce's #Unit400. He served in the #Basij in the past. Recruiting Basij personnel is a known MO of Quds Force.
1️⃣1️⃣ The #UnitedStates uncovered a plot to assassinate the #Saudi Ambassador inside #Washington, D.C. that also tracked to #Unit400. #FBI counterintelligence managed to infiltrate the operation and capture $100,000 in transferred funds intended for the assassins.
1️⃣2️⃣ #Iran can always proclaim innocence when #Hezbollah or #Shi’a militias in #Iraq carry out terror attacks or commit #warcrimes.  Presumably the attempt to hire a #Mexican cartel to carry out an assassination on #US soil.

1️⃣ #Erdogan implied that #Jerusalem belongs to #Turkey, referring to the #OttomanEmpire’s control over the city for much of the modern era. “In this city, we had to leave in tears during the #FirstWorldWar, it is still possible to come across traces of the #Ottoman resistance.
2️⃣ So #Jerusalem is our city, a city from us,”. “Our first #qibla [direction of prayer in #Islam] #alAqsa and the #Dome of the #Rock in Jerusalem are the symbolic #mosques of our faith. In addition, this city is home to the holy places of #Christianity and #Judaism.”
3️⃣ #Jerusalem has been the capital of #Israel since the country’s founding, and the #Jewish people have thousands of years of history in the city, backed up by extensive archaeological finds.

1️⃣ The two communities that has anyways honoured me & recognised my expertise & knowledge which are #Israelis & #Indians. Unfortunately, most of the #Pakistanis didn’t. I wanted to give benefit to my community first who suffered worse in the war against terrorism. You know why..?
2️⃣ They see every person & matter through the lens of religion. They could have gotten the solution of the issue of religious extremism if they would have recognised the expertises of their intellectuals.
Their religious priorities as well as ideology threw them back.
3️⃣ despite they should ve welcomed & utilised my knowledge & experience against the war on terror, they rejected, refuted, abused me & doubted not only my knowledge but my faith as well which hurt me hard.
I feel sorry for them as it is indeed their loss but nation suffers.

1- Which unis they got admission, details of their courses, etc. When I asked them why do they need, he said “to update their record in their system”.
Means “Spying own citizens unlawfully”.
3️⃣ When I condemned him & refused to do so, he then changed his plea & requested me to at least provide the details of those #PakistaniJews (@Jew_Pakistani) who are disguised under different religions and living in a country for decades.
I asked, so that you can abduct them?

Abu Hamza, the former Imam of north London's Finsbury Park mosque, says he isn't getting enough sunlight in his cell - and being deprived of his hooks means he has to tear open packets of food with his rotting teeth, three of which have been lost.

He claimed, he has had to switch from a Muslim halal diet to a Jewish kosher one - a move he describes as 'religiously stressful'. 😆
He is appealing his incarceration, claiming that 'inhuman and degrading' conditions breach his human rights. 😆

It’s not your luxury UK homes where you fraudulently claimed 3 houses and 3 times benefits on your name in different councils.
You are still lucky you get Kosher meat not pork. Muslims can eat Jewish kosher meat and he can’t coz he isn’t a Muslim but Islamist. Continue....

#Hezbollah is responsible for thousands victims of the blast. Every single human is in pain to see the horrific incident. We are in tears & our prayers are with the nation of #Lebanon.
The day will come when #Iran, Hezbollah and #IRGC will pay the price of it.
