Prominent Indian politician Shri Rahul Gandhi, during his proposed #RahulInUSA tour,would attend several public events. He may not know, but some ‘coordinators’ who are claiming to be associated with events are Pak Jamaat-e-Islami & Muslim Brotherhood-linked fronts

A Thread Image
The event (June 4) in New York is coordinated, among others, by Tanzeem Ansari, who is the Amir Outreach Committee of Muslim Community of New Jersey (MCNJ).  MCNJ is led by a Pakistan-born Imaam Jawad Ahmed, Project Director of Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA).

(2/10) ImageImage
#ICNA is a radical Islamist org, associated with Pak's Jamaat-e-Islami, & tows Pak's line against India & has linkages with radical & terror orgs. They glorify terrorists such as Hizbul Mujahideen chief Syed Salahuddin for his “cause of separation of Kashmir from India."

(3/10) Image
Another coordinator of the eventis Mohammed Aslam a member of Muslim Center of Greater Princeton (MCGP), another close partner of ICNA.  Banned radical group #SIMI founder is also ICNA member. Fronts like #JusticeForAll; #HhRD operate under ICNA/ Jamaat umbrella.

(4/10) ImageImage
Another self-appointed coordinator for event, Minhaj Khan is linked to anti-India lobbying group Indian American Muslim Council(IAMC). IAMC relentlessly targets India on pretext of human rights, religious freedom, & via sharing fake news to stir communal unrest in India.

(5/10) Image
IAMC had engaged US lobby firm, paying them USD 55K Dollars for Lobbying the USCIRF against India in 2013-14, during Dr. Manmohan Singh Govt itself.

(6/10) ImageImage
IAMC’s Exec Dir Rasheed Ahmed is the Exec Dir of another Jamaat affiliated ‘charity’ front Islamic Medical Association of North America (IMANA), which exploited India’s goodwill & raised millions of $ during peak Covid in name of helping India & siphoned off all the money
(7/10) Image
Fun Fact: IMANA at one end is associated with retired Pakistani Army/ Naval officials; & at another end associated with Terrorists groups – LeT & Hizbul Mujahideen. Full spectrum of Pakistani establishment. One can only imagine where the Covid relief fund has gone.

(8/10) ImageImage
Orgs. like IAMC and ICNA sit at confluence of Jamaat & Muslim Brotherhood (MB). IMANA’s members have been part of MB front Islamic Society of North America (ISNA). In 2017 ISNA Canada was implicated by Canada Revenue Agency for funding ‘charity’ wing of Hizbul Mujahideen

(9/10) Image
These fronts relentlessly pursue their anti-India activities, irrespective of which Party govt is in power in India. Only the narrative changes with change of govt.

The US Embassy in India has taken a keen interest in ‘fighting disinformation’ and ‘hate speech’, conducting multiple workshops through its consulates and mission. However, the manner and the individuals engaged, raise some questions.

A thread: Image
Starting about 2019, the US Embassy in India and its Consulates – all started workshops on “counter disinformation” across India - Kolkata, Lucknow, Hyderabad, Chennai, and Mumbai.

But what kind of #Disinformation? And who conducted these workshops?

(2/n) Image
A workshop in Lucknow in 2019 was conducted by a ‘disinformation expert’ named Tina Lee. Incidentally, the workshop was against ‘far-right disinformation’ – and Ms. Lee is a self-proclaimed ‘far-left’ activist!

How ‘Western’ powers are using the #Khalistani trope to create conflict in India, and why?

A story in Five Acts

Brief thread.

(1/11) Image
Act I: June 13: UK

Centre for Information Resilience (CIR), a UK Deep-State project publishes a ‘disinformation’ report– ‘exposing’ a handful of anonymous handles– recycling the #Khalistani narrative, seeding tropes of Khalistani ‘activists’ & ‘transnational repression’.

(2/11) Image
Last time, CIRs had ‘exposed’ 33 anonymous X (Twitter) handles – though not a single #fakenews: all the while ignoring large-scale anti-India #disinformation. To know about CIR, BBC, and Deep State, pls read ‘a Puppet Too Valuable’.

EXPOSÉ: Millions of $ funded to impact #IndianElection results!

Just concluded #loksabhaelections24 reported massive interference from China to Israel.

However, the most significant remains obscure – The Western interference: From EU to the US!

A thread: Image
These elections saw the most intrusive foreign reporting – overwhelmingly negative and obviously brazen. Tropes from the ‘Western media’ heavily laced with hyper adjectives and double standards forcing a meta narrative into the bloodstream of internet.

Like they were in a competitive mud-slinging tournament.

(2/n)Image
Some of these media outlets had tacit funding, and some were explicit, while few were funded by organizations with dark backgrounds of publishing slant narratives– e.g.– from stories based on ‘random WhatsApp groups’ to creating heroes out of Pak-sponsored stooges.

Sudden spike in news about ‘bad’ Indian medicine – from US, Gambia, Indonesia, Sri Lanka - and emergence of Indian origin American ‘hero’ #DineshThakur.

Story of biggest assault on #IndianPharma, aided and abetted by Indian media, particularly, The Wire.

A Thread: Image
In Dec 2023 Livemint claimed that the US recalled ‘bad’ Indian meds. It was a headline spin – Indian med was a fraction of US meds. But why the negative spin on Indian pharma? We were interested and did what we do. Dig.

What we found was beyond shocking!

In July'22 news came that several children died in Gambia bcoz of India-made cough syrup. WHO issued warning & news media screamed– Indian med killed Gambian children. The news was first broken by #Retures & #AlJazeera, repeated by Indian media.

But it was pure propaganda.

An #ISIS module was busted by the NIA, headed by Saquib Nachan. Many would not know that Saquib goes back to the 1990s with Human rights ‘activist’ Bhajan Bhinder.

A trans-national - trans-generational strategy of bleeding India by thousand cuts.

A Thread: 🧵 Image
The two ‘activists’ - #ISIS fame Saquib Nachan & #OFMI fame Bhajan started together in 1992, & have been working on a two-pronged Hybrid-Warfare against India – spanning three continents and four decades.

(2/n)
On Dec 10, 2023, NIA busted an #ISIS terror module of Saqib Nachan, and while his involvement in the 2002-03 Mumbai terror blasts is well known, he was also instrumental in a foiled terror attack in July 1992, identical to the deadly 93’ blasts, a year earlier.

In a long English word salad, a quarter dozen WaPo journalists in a hit piece have tried painting us somewhere between RW & RAW (no pun intended).

To do this, they recycled 2-year-old Pakistani propaganda, making it ‘ANONYMOUS.’

We dissect the ‘exposé’.

A Thread: Image
First, the claim of our association with Govt agencies/ RAW. The report is essentially a recycle of previous reports published by Pakistani ISPR/ Info-war machinery. The report is periodically recycled, last by known fake news peddler CJ Werleman.

Lazy Journalism!

The only ‘upgrade’ the WaPo did was to make this Pakistani allegation as ‘anonymous’. And whatever is in addition to that is again attributed to ‘anonymous’ sources. Hence, literally, every fact claimed is ‘anonymous’. The report has more than 10 anonymous sources.
