THREAD
1 @DisinfoEU (EUD) brought out a report on a “web of disinformation” set up by Indian intelligence. This kangaroo court drivel followed no consistent logic & by EUD’s own standards show EUD collusion with Pakistani intelligence & left wing journos in India. Let’s examine

2 first up we need to understand what this latest report is. It adds on a report released by the same group in 2019 claiming to expose the organisation of Madi Sharma. The target this time though is to link @ANI to the Madi Sharma network
3 it claims this is a 15 year operation, IE started by the UPA government under Dr Manmohan Singh. Curiously though in these 15 years it can find only 12 instances of where @ANI this news website called EU chronicle. IE less than once a year.
4 this is key, because we need to understand that their sample set for this “vast disinformation network” is exactly 12 articles - a serious sampling error by any stretch. But the innuendoes and stretches here are mind boggling. Let’s start with this image: it claims EU chronicle
5 and ANI are linked as they covered the same protests using SIMILAR angles, admitting they weren’t able to find the exact footage. However by the end of the report the innuendo becomes fact. Curiously guess who else also covers Anti Pakistan protests? @AFP used by @BBCWorld to
6 report the EUD story. So now I guess AFP is part of the disinformation too? Question - did @AFP verify the validity of the protest? If the protestors were paid? No. But apparently this is condemnable according to @DisinfoEU only if ANI does it. Clearly they don’t understand the
7 difference between investigative journalism and a news agency. Next - they seem to have an issue that that several EU MEPs have written for the EU chronicle (EUC). This in itself is treated as part of some conspiracy. As is the fact that ANI picked up EUC stories by these MPs
8 by this logic we can claim that EU disinfo is part of a vast left wing pakistani disinformation network given that the Pakistani NSA & Foreign Minister picked up on the report. And the coverage of the report by the @BBCWorld & @politico was driven by 2 Pakistanis. Moreover it
9 turns out that the Indians involved in the reporting are from known left wing propaganda rags @ndtv @newslaundry & @thecaravanindia all known for amplifying Pakistani messaging in India. Unsurprisingly the @BBCWorld coauthor with the Pakistani worked in two of these lefty rags
10 Unsurprisingly the foreign magazines carrying @EUvsDisinfo’s report are also the leftist Le Monde & Le Jours. To note the former Le Monde correspondent Julien Bissou (modi hater karuna nundy’s ex) is a pathological hater of modi & the hindu right. A sample of his twitter. The
11 current correspondent Sophie
Landrin is as bad - note her on the environment blaming modi & avoiding the fact that Punjabi farmers are the main cause of winter pollution in Delhi, while passing of localised protests of the same Punjabi farmers as a pan india “peasant revolt”
12 let’s take EUD’s logic further. They see conspiracy in the fact that ANI labelled certain people “Pashtun activists” without running their full affiliations. Well here’s @guardian quoting me without naming my full affiliation as well - so is guardian part of some conspiracy?
13 it then found it particularly strange that EUC only reports on Anti Pakistan protests. Given that EUD has only reported on Indian “disinformation campaigns” And not Pakistani ones we can equally say EUD is a Pakistani tool. Added to the fact the usual suspects ran its story
14 EUD also has a huge problem with EUC reports being passed off with additional editorialisation by other outfits. However no problems with their partners at Le Jours similarly imposing their anti-modi editorialising on EUD’s reports. Note the goebbelsian use of modi images
15 why do I say partners? Why do I claim coordination between these outlets? Because the metadata shows that Le Jours and Le Monde published op-Eds based on EUD’s report minutes before EUD published the source report
16 and politico published its commentary (by a Pakistani) on the EUD report 12 minutes thereafter. Now while EUD’s report has been a litany of connected innuendo - this metadata proves actual collusion between leftists Pakistanis and EUD - no if - no but
17 amazingly in all of this, at no point has the content of what was produced determined to be fake. Begging the question what exactly was the “disinformation” being peddled? In short @EUvsDisinfo has run a calibrated campaign with clear signs of coordination with some Pakistanis

More from Crime

We - myself from AIPWA, @kawalpreetdu from @AISA_tweets and advocate Sneha from @HRLNIndia are in Kanth, #Moradabad to meet the Muskan and Rashid, the couple who are victims of illegal arrest, forced abortion by @UPPolice under the hateful ordinance passed by @myogiadityanath


We found that 1) Muskan is very weak after her miscarriage, and the Moradabad District Hospital where she was admitted has not given her the treatment papers, nor any course of antibiotics and painkillers to prevent post miscarriage infections that can affect fertility in future

2) The first dose of antibiotics & painkillers Muskan received is today - after we got her to speak on phone to a senior gynaecologist in Delhi, who explained that antibiotics are always prescribed following a miscarriage, to prevent infections.

3) Muskan alleges that the hospital administered abortifacient injections after which she suffered a miscarriage. What is indisputable is that the hospital deliberately failed in its duty to a patient, a) by not telling Muskan re the miscarriage b) by not prescribing antibiotics

and c) by withholding her treatment papers which every patient is supposed to receive
Moreover, how did the head of the UP State Commission for Protection of Child Rights Dr Vishesh Gupta, declare that pregnancy was intact? On whose orders did Dr Vishesh Gutpa lie?
