  • Indian False Flag Operations
    Center for Global & Strategic Studies Islamabad INDIAN FALSE FLAG OPERATIONS By Mr. Tauqir – Member Advisory Board CGSS Terminology and Genealogy The term false flag has been used symbolically and it denotes the purposeful misrepresentation of an actor’s objectives or associations. The lineage of this term is drawn from maritime affairs where ships raise a false flag to disguise themselves and hide their original identity and intent. In this milieu, the false flag was usually used by pirates to conceal themselves as civilian or merchant ships and to prevent their targets from escaping away or to stall them while preparing for a battle. In other cases, false flags of ships were raised to blame the attack on someone else. A false flag operation can be defined as follows: “A covert operation designed to deceive; the deception creates the appearance of a particular party, group, or nation being responsible for some activity, disguising the actual source of responsibility.” These operations are purposefully carried out to deceive public about the culprits and perpetrators. This phenomenon has become a normal practice in recent years as rulers often opt for this approach to justify their actions. It is also used for fabrication and fraudulently accuse or allege in order to rationalize the aggression. Similarly, it is a tool of coercion which is often used to provoke or justify a war against adversaries. In addition, false flag operations could be a single event or a series of deceptive incidents materializing a long-term strategy. A primary modern case of such operations was accusation on Iraqi President Saddam Hussain for possessing weapons of mass-destruction ‘WMD’, which were not found after NATO forces, waged a war on Iraq.

  • The Power of One “I’Ve Taught My People to Live Again ...” Maoist Violence Is Not Prabhavati’S Way
    The Power of One “I’ve taught my people to live again ...” Maoist Violence Is Not Prabhavati’s Way Manisha Prakash Jehanabad (Bihar): Peering into the classroom of the anganwadi centre in Bhitiyan village, in Bihar’s Jehanabad district, we could see a motherly figure giving instructions to her students. “Jump children. It helps in the development of muscles,” she was saying. The children followed her instructions, bobbing up and down in neat rows. After the exercise, she asked them to sit down and recite a poem. Within minutes the small classroom echoed with young, sing-song voices reciting, “Machchli jal ki rani hai...” (Fish is the queen of the water), a popular rhyme in Hindi. Then regular class work began. This was in 2009, when we visited Prabhavati Devi, who was in her mid-fifties. What struck us immediately was the manner in which she related to her students and how she could awaken curiosity in their young minds. Later, as lunch time came and the bell rang, the children rushed out to grab their plates and line up to be served a generous portion of their daily mid-day meal of khichdi (a preparation of rice and lentil). Their alert teacher made sure that no child was left out. Day after day, this was Prabhavati’s routine. At first glance, her simplicity was apparent and there was nothing particularly unusual about her other than the fact that she ran the anganwadi at Bhitiyan meticulously. Yet, Prabhavati, who spoke only the local dialect Magahi, turned out to be nothing like the ordinary village woman she appeared.

    Annexe 2 Extrait du message de Indian Mujahideen revendiquant l’attentat d’Ahmedabad en 2008 In the Name of Allah, The Most Beneficent, The Most Merciful. Praise and Glory be to Allah, Who helped His slaves, fulfilled His Promise and Who Alone defeated the enemies. And Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon His Messenger Muhammad (peace be upon him) and on all those who believe and honor him. And all Praise and Glory be to Allah Alone, the Sustainer of the Heavens and the Earth, Who revealed in His Qur'an: Say (O Muhammad to the Kafireen): “Call upon your (so called) partners (of Allah) and then plot (your worst) against me, and give me no respite! For my Protector is Allah, Who revealed the Book, and He will choose and befriend the righteous”. (Qur’an 7:95-96) Here again, the INDIAN MUJAHIDEEN addresses the escaped multitude of faithless disbelievers, praising our Lord for humiliating you by our hands at Ahmedabad and Surat and calming our hearts by chastising your bodies with a disgraceful punishment. We declare that with the Will of Allah our attacks on you will be severely intensified from now on and with our extremely lethal strikes, which are to follow successively, we shall make you weep and repent for the evil hatred and grudge against Islam and Muslims. We openly intimidate you of our new attacks about to hit you very soon and shatter all the fabricated lies that you have forged about “busting the terror module behind the Ahmedabad bomb blasts”. O you cowardly bastards of ATS Gujarat, ATS Mumbai, ACB, Gujarat Police and fools the like thereof! You are the most foolish enemies the Mujahideen of Islam have ever fought against! Look! We are directly challenging you that Insha Allah we will carry out our next attacks right under your “close vigil”, your “critical surveillance” and yes, of course, in presence of all those confidential reports that you receive from your secret sources of the IB – the “Ignorance Bureau”.
