"Pakistan's High Commissioner to Britain Wajid Shamsul Hassan had said in a recent interview with an Indian TV channel that investigations had revealed that the [26/11] attacks were not planned inside Pakistan."

"Diplomatic and other sources told PTI that the Pakistani security establishment and the senior American diplomats had been referring to a possible Bangladeshi connection to the Mumbai attacks in the past few days."

What role did US diplomats play in the aftermath of the 26/11? Image

Here is the original article from @dawn_com which Pakistani and US investigators tried to pin Bangladeshi militants for the Mumbai attacks.

Dawn reveals @FBI and Pakistani agencies had been investigating the Bangladeshi angle. They had seen notes.
The Dawn article is misleading. But it's certainly worth revisiting.

Was the #ISI trying to make it look like American investigators were leading their probe on #MumbaiTerrorAttack or were US investigators helping deflect blame? Image

"Dhaka has strongly condemned a Pakistani investigation agency's claim of a Bangladesh-based terror outfit's involvement in the Mumbai terror attacks." Image

#KashmiriFiles is hated because the film's premise is that liberals don't want to talk about the exodus of Pandits from #Kashmir in 1990.

Now cornered they claim:

1) Islamophobia
2) @BJP4India benefits
3) Propaganda

They never talk about the exodus.
The #KashmirFiles should shock people. The reality was a lot worse.

#India has to talk about it.

If the BJP tries to capitalise on it? Big deal. Point out their cynicism, not deny people #justice.

Will it increase communal tension? Yes, it probably will. So, talk about it.

Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army (ARSA) chief sued for the death of a Bangladeshi intelligence officer.

ARSA started as a jihadi outfit and then ditched their religious overtones within a year. They wanted support from the USA and Europe.
thediplomat.com/2022/11/target…

ARSA leaders originally wanted to become affiliated with Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) they had meetings in #Pakistan.

LeT and the ISI coralled Bangladeshi and Rohingya militants. The 2014 Burdwan blasts exposed the network to the public.

#ZakirNaik was called "Deedat Plus" after Naik's South Africa based mentor the late Ahmed Deedat.

Deedat was a known radical. He ran the Bin Laden Centre in SA.
The Bin Laden Family is large and diverse. There is no suggestion that the Bin Laden Centre was used for terrorism.

Deedat was used by Gaddafi and other radicals to call for an Islamic revolution in Africa in 1995.

They actively planned making Africa into an Islamic state.

France and Australia refused to let Deedat into their countries. #ZakirNaik or Deedat Plus should also be banned for hate preaching.

He said Muslims should be terrorists.

@AyoCaesar looks at #Leicester. There are some good points. Undermined by sloppy research.

She quotes @AmritWilson who waded into the debate pushing the RSS Bus hoax. Hasn't retracted it. @ainajkhan debunked it.

Data proving, "Hinduphobia" available.
Hinduphobia is used by right-wing political figures and activists as a shield. That's true. But much like Islamophobia it does exist. It's a reality.

@ncri_io shows that anti-Hindu slogans were used. Bigotry from the Hindu side too. They have the data.

@AyoCaesar also leaves out the Muslim agitators who were using anti-Hindu language and hoaxes.

Communalism is bad for Hindus and Muslims. A poor attempt by Ash to bring the issue into light.

Communalism is a real. Trying to argue Hinduphobia doesn't exist won't help.

@ncri_io has a new report out on #Leicester unrest.

It opens with an acknowledgement that cricket related violence happened in 2017, but that the recent escalation was unique.

@guardian @nytimes come under fire lack of due diligence on Majid Freeman.
"As the events in Leicester took shape, NCRI analysis also found coordinated activity coming from self-identified Indian accounts amplifying
blame, ethnic distrust, and accusations against the Muslim community and Islam as a tradition."

Nobody comes out of it smelling of roses.
The Angel Tours-RSS hoax was the also looked at.

Are you upset #HRes1430 mentions the religious and ethnic genocide of 1971?

I have talked about Hindus facing communal violence in Bangladesh. Why are you so hostile to the Awami League when they have said Hindus need to be protected?

Are you aligned to the BNP?
@sritiochetona who is paying for Bengali Hindu Genocide documentaries?

They are well produced and slick. Yet, they don't have any followers on twitter.

Could it be the BNP, Jamaat, Pakistan, Qatar or Turkey?

@HinduAmerican does this group belong to you?
