Did you know that her father-in-law had a missionary business running in India, but it failed to flourish after it was exposed and banned by the GOI.

Pakistan faces persistent challenges with international audiences, who see it as plagued by political instability, law & order, terrorism, & a regressive medieval society.

Engaging foreign influencers to whitewash its image is the easiest way to project a false picture.

Guys this is BIG!!!

Seems like our Govt is onto something.

This account @/macroschema made an Anti-India hate post.

I went through his account & found a whole slew of made up stories against Indians.

I quote tweeted as mentioned below & called out all his r@cist posts.

Few mins after that he blocked me but most importantly, literally within few minutes I saw that his account is witheld in India due to a legal request.

You can see the screenshot of his post below & my quote was a response to that.

It seems that the Indian Govt has finally started banning these accounts. I'm assuming that algorithm is somehow tracking it.

For an experiment quote such accounts & write how they're making 'hateful Anti-India content' & then check later if it is witheld.

This is a massive W and it seems no one knows about this yet!!!!

A TOP BBC EXECUTIVE pushed Oscar-winning British actor Riz Ahmed to join spy agency MI6, he revealed yesterday. The man was “someone senior, high up at the BBC,” he told journalist Mehdi Hasan on Zeteo.

The BBC has a long and shocking history of partnering with spy agencies. Reporters and spies even share a desktop app. Eight important points below:

.

1. DIVIDING THE WORLD

In 1939, the BBC met with the CIA (originally called OSS and then CIG) ito divide the planet between them, the focus being on gathering data for spies by monitoring all news sources everywhere.

The CIA took China, Japan, and Latin America, while the BBC took the Soviet Union, Africa and the Middle East.

The result was the creation of a division called BBC Monitoring (BBCM) which still operates today, gathering data for spies and military intelligence.

The exact division of labor today is not public information, other than the fact that the BBC division is believed to monitor about 25 per cent of global media while the CIA processes the remaining 75 per cent.

The operation promotes a strong relationship between UK spies and the BBC news department, and also between UK and US intelligence agents.

.

2. THE SECRET MELODIES

High profile journalists at the BBC and other mainstream media news outlets were spies, said a report in December 1968 by an investigative reporter at Izvestia, a Russian newspaper.

The paper provided plenty of evidence, including their names, codenames and handlers—along with photographs of documents confirming the details.

One document showed that the BBC had a list of specific melodies a presenter could play to highlight actions by MI6 officers in the field as a signal of authenticity.

The western media dismissed the claims out of hand as absurd propaganda, pointing out that the publication was state media.

More than 40 years later, in 2013, BBC reporters interviewed intelligence historians, who agreed that the Russian scoop was real, as were the documents.

But the wholesale dismissal of anything produced by Russia (or Chinese or Iranian) state media in the west continues today—even by BBC, which is itself financed by the state and politically compromised.

.

3. SERVING SPIES

BBC Monitoring still works for spies.

“The six government ‘key customers’ of BBCM are the Ministry of Defence, Foreign and Commonwealth Office, Cabinet Office and three Security and Intelligence Agencies,” a UK parliamentary paper said in 2016.

The three British spy groups mentioned would be:
- MI5, the Security Service;
- MI6, the Secret Intelligence Service; and
- GCHQ, which stands for Government Communications Headquarters.

.

4. GENOCIDE HOAX

While BBC News presents itself as an independent media outlet, it directly partnered US spy agencies in pushing the now debunked “Uyghur genocide hoax”.

The disinformation campaign was created by the CIA spin-off called the National Endowment for Democracy, which the Trump administration defined as a group which works to “destabilize sovereign governments”.

When data showed the opposite of a genocide, the China destabilization group switched to a Uyghur “slave labour” fiction, which BBC News again distributed.

The fictions were so patently fake that even human rights campaigners complained.

“The BBC should know better,” said Gene Bunin of the Xinjiang Transitional Database.

.

5. SHARED TOOLS

BBC News says it is independent of the government, the spy agencies, and military intelligence groups, but no one believes it. Not only are there links among senior executives (as Riz Ahmed found out), but there are shared tools.

For example, the BBC adopted an internal desktop tool to alert newsrooms of urgent breaking news. “BBCM has access to this tool, and uses it as events require,” the parliamentary document said.

BBC Monitoring even has a web-based product for spies (it calls them “customers”), called BBCM Portal, launched about 10 years ago.

.

6. BBC DEMONIZES CHINA

Separately, UK independent academic researchers looking at reports from BBC News on China found that the content overwhelmingly served to demonize the Chinese.

An analysis of BBC News reports on China from September to December 2021 found they were almost all negative, with only four per cent being describable as positive.

It went from bad to worse.

In a follow-up study looking at BBC News reports on China from August to November 2022, only 2 per cent were positive.

A further related study, looking at BBC News coverage of China from December 2022 to March 2023, showed only 1 per cent as positive.

The study was published by King’s College, London, under the title “Shaping the Policy Debate”.

.

7. BBC NEWS FILTER

BBC News became notorious for its use of a “yellow filter” and other tools to make images and videos of China look polluted.

This was not just a conspiracy theory. Independent journalist Brian Berletic showed clearly how the BBC doctored a specific image of China to turn live green trees black.

After the expose was published, BBC News replaced the doctored image with the original picture. No admission of guilt or explanation of the change was provided.

.

8. DEFENDING BBC NEWS

Defenders of BBC News say that it does do a great deal of genuine reporting.

This is also true. The department has used hundreds of working correspondents, stringers, and professional journalists around the world, including the individual who is writing this article.

Yet that doesn’t absolve it. The coverage of China and the doctored photos are indefensible.

The wise conclusion is that individual BBC News staff do, on occasion, produce honest, works of valuable reporting. But on big topics with a geopolitical angle—think China, Russia and Iran—don’t believe a word.

In particular, BBC News reports on Mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Tibet, Inner Mongolia, should be discounted in their entirety.

Conclusion: Consume BBC News reports, if you have to, with narrowed eyes. Look for independent sources.

Pakistan’s state-affiliated news channel @PTVNewsOfficial circulating a fabricated article falsely attributed to @lemondefr and @sophielandrin .

Her last legitimate piece was published on 29 March. Everything being aired now is a sham; manufactured, morphed, and force-fed to a domestic audience to fake “victory” in Operation Sindoor. This isn’t journalism, it’s psychological conditioning dressed up as news. When a state has to invent international coverage to validate itself, it’s not winning anything it’s collapsing under its own propaganda.

The DeFacto Munir Shehbaz Regime has gone so far that state media is broadcasting a doctored image of an article that was never published.

Bravo, @TararAttaullah . Your media ecosystem has officially graduated from spin to straight-up forgery and set a new standards of misinformation. Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry @OfficialDGISPR must be proud.

Gensis of Pakistan's "War from India's East"

EXCLUSIVE: We studied a Pakistan-based information warfare wing for 3 months. The origins of this operation traces back to August 2025, when Pakistan's Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir stated "We'll start from India's East." This marked Pakistan's shift from a western-front-centric posture to exploiting vulnerabilities in India's Northeast.

"SPLC admittedly uses an off-shore database of American citizens (used by ANTIFA to allegedly commit acts of 18 USC 2331 (5) domestic terrorism), while influencing Federal, State, and Local Bureaucrats to circumvent Legal Designations of ‘Terrorism?’ (SEE EXHIBITS 1-3) Megan Squire.

Dr. Megan Squire (Elon University & SPLC) created and uses a database (called ‘Whack A Mole’) to privately track those whom she deems ‘extreme’ ‘white nationalists.’ Her database, by her own admission, is housed offshore.

She is employed by SPLC. SPLC uses their servers to access her database. By her own admission, she feeds information from her database to ANTIFA “who can weaponize it.” She is a Belfer Fellow for ADL. Please See Exhibit #1.

CONCERN: is SPLC & possibly ADL aiding & abetting ‘Domestic Terrorism’ (18 USC 2331 (5) via the efforts of Dr. Megan Squire. Belfer Family. The Belfer family supports the ADL’s “Center for Technology and Society” and it’s “Belfer Fellows” program to: “…study disinformation, deplatforming, and toxicity in online games” and “advance ADL’s work by promoting awareness around online hate and digital citizenship, as well as implementing these projects for the wider social good.” https://t.co/RYOFy2YDeA

The Belfer family also funds the Harvard Kennedy School’s “Belfer Center” and the Center’s “Intelligence Project” to: “…build a new generation of intelligence practitioners…and to help future policymakers and intelligence consumers…” https://t.co/eUwu35FlFO Paul Kolbe is a Belfer Center – Intelligence Project Fellow.

On September 19, 2023, he was appointed to the DHS “Homeland Intelligence Experts Group.” He served for 25 years in the CIA’s Directorate of Operations and was a member of the Senior Intelligence Service. Please see Exhibit #2.

CONCERN: is the Belfer Family knowingly or unknowingly financing “Domestic Terrorism’ through the ADL’s Belfer Fellow Program and, by extension, Harvard’s Belfer Center – Intelligence Project; who has ties to DHS? SPLC.

SPLC’s ‘Intelligence Project’ domestic intrigue and Harvard’s Belfer Center ‘Intelligence Project’ international intrigue is eerily similar in name & function. Please see Exhibit #3.

SPLC researcher Dr. Jeff Tischauser and Deputy Director for Data Analytics and OSINT Dr. Megan Squire co-write article’s for SPLC. We have previously shown Dr. Tischauser’s connections to ANTIFA. SPLC writer, Ryan Lenz, as we previously demonstrated, gave conflicting interviews to BLM and FBI concerning the 2014 “Bundy Ranch Standoff.”

Former SPLC law enforcement trainer, Laurie Wood, taught Local, State, and Federal Law enforcement on ‘extremism’ and ‘anti-government’ for 29 years. SPLC’s Extremism Council member, Dr. Cynthia Idriss-Miller has counseled WA AG Ben Ferguson on the creation of a DVE commission based on allegedly overinflated FBI DVE cases.

Dr. Heidi Beirich, an “expert on various forms of extremism,” formerly led the SPLC’s Intelligence Project.

CONCERN: Is SPLC ‘Intelligence Project’ related to Harvard’s Belfer Center – Intelligence Project? Is SPLC engaged in a conspiracy to weaponize both Federal, State, and Local government and violent groups like ANTIFA to coerce, intimidate, censor, cancel, and circumvent due process guarantees for all US citizens via supportive Federal, State, "

NOTE: Paul Kolbe served as the Chief of the Central Intelligence Agency’s Central Eurasia Division. In this capacity, he oversaw operations in countries such as Russia, the Caucasus, and Central Asian states. His tenure in this division placed him at the heart of the agency’s efforts to monitor and counter Russian reach during a period when the U.S. was aggressively pushing for NATO expansion and political realignment in the region.

Kolbe held several high-level Station Chief positions, the most notable being his assignment as Chief of Station in Moscow. This is one of the most sensitive and restrictive posts in the intelligence world, requiring the management of deep-cover assets and, historically, the navigation of complex surveillance environments.

There you have it: SPLC, ADL, CIA, FBI, DHS, Harvard...Kissinger would be so proud of them.

Incredible. USAID was funding the SPLC through an organization called the Tides Center, based in San Francisco.

From 2016 through 2024, USAID granted $27 million to the Tides Network to “strengthen global civil society organizations, promote transparency, accountability, citizen engagement, and serve as fiscal agent for USAID’s Civil Society Innovation Initiative.”

The Tides Center set up a fund through its Tides Foundation with that money for the Southern Poverty Law Center’s “Vote Your Voice” initiative.

The executive director of the Tides Center is Ayesha Khanna. She was co-chair of Women for Obama in Atlanta, Georgia.

[Rick de la Torre @vrk_rick]

The NGO funding machine is getting harder to ignore.

USAID funneled $27 million through the Tides Center, with some of it going directly into the Southern Poverty Law Center.

For years, the liberal left inside the federal government hijacked nonprofits as pass-through vehicles; a legal loophole to launder taxpayer dollars into partisan left-wing networks like SPLC.

Tides operates as the perfect hub: it receives massive federal grants, buries the ultimate recipients behind multiple layers of 501(c)(3)s, and quietly re-grants the money to activist allies.

The American people didn’t authorize this. It needs to end now.

We are going to expose how, inside Pakistan’s terror ecosystem, terrorists are not just protected, they are rewarded, promoted and institutionalised. A key example is @MuftiAbidShb now the head of Lashkar-e-Taiba’s Jamia-ud-Dawa seminary in Muridke, which has been under the control of the Government of Pakistan since 2019.
