🔶Beyond Aamir Khan-Lady Erdogan meet🔶

Recently our vicious neighbor #Pakistan has found a new ally. No, we aren’t talking about the obvious one "Land of Dragons"; but this time its a friend from the west - #Turkey.
2/21

The relations between the two have been flaming. The question is why should a simple #Kashmiri be bothered about #Pakistan’s new friend #Turkey?
3/21

Establishing supremacy among the nations by traditional wars is archaic now. It’s a new era of planning, plotting, and sabotaging. #Turkey isn’t behind in this league too.
4/21
India's Muslim community and mainly #kashmir is already being targeted by Pakistani-sponsored jihadism. #Turkey is now on the same lines of exploiting Islam for its own evil good. Its outreach activities in #kashmir are alarming.
5/21
Led by Islamist leader Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who dreams to become the undisputed ‘Caliph’ of the Muslim Ummah. Erdogan’s main obstacle is Saudi Arabia. Despite Saudi being the "Guardian of the Holy Places" of Mecca and Medina, Erdogan wants to bid for Muslim leadership.
6/21
Turkey's support to Pakistan’s global campaign against #India on #Kashmir is mainly aimed at Erdogan’s selfish deeds to elevate and enhance his position amongst the South Asian Muslims – the vote bank for claiming leadership of the Islamic world.
7/21
#Turkey wants to cash in the sentiment of the Asian Muslims for its own hidden benefits. Given the current situation and the fragile state of #Kashmir. What better time is for #Turkey to plant the seeds of communal disharmony amongst people of #Kashmir
8/21
Why is #Pakistan building such an affinity for Turkey? Obvious! “Enemy’s enemy is a friend”. Looking into the recent development in the strained relations between #Pakistan and Saudi Arabia. The brotherly ties between the nations have hit Rock bottom.
9/21
In the Kuala Lumpur Summit, Pakistan intended to raise the Kashmir issue, which could have had the backing of host - Malaysia and Turkey. But #Pakistan backed out from the summit to stay on common ground with Saudi.
10/21
However, now when things have changed face with Saudi, Pak can be seen bad-mouthing Saudi. Since its old habit is to turn to nations who can help propagate their false narrative of Azad #Kashmir. #shamepakistan

Facts suggest that Turkey has directed its diplomats to approach prominent clerics, businesspeople and politicians, pointing to specific extremist Islamic clerics such as Sheikh Salman Nadwi as the main conduit for establishing an Erdogan support base among Indian Muslims.
12/21
GASAM( South Asia Strategic Research Center ) organizes conferences to which it invites Muslim clerics, politicians and community leaders from South Asia, to export AKP’s (Erdogan’s Political party) Islamist ideology to Indian Muslims.
13/21
Turkey has welcomed several extremist preachers, such as Zakir Naik, called "the evangelist, wanted in India. He delivered a speech at TUGWA (an Islamist group by Erdogan’s son Bilal) where he declared that Erdogan is the only Muslim ruler who has the guts to support Islam.
14/21
Turk media, especially int channels such as TRT World, have been reaching out to Indian Muslims, by playing on alleged Indian abuses in Kashmir. Anti-India propaganda video targeting #Govt, SF showing false sympathy towards the Muslims in the state to gain their vote banks.
15/21
Turkey also funds NGOs for outreach among Indian Muslims, Muslim student exchange programs, & influences within madrasas and mosques. It funds religious seminars in India to radicalize Muslims and offer them a full expense covered trip to Turkey for further indoctrination.
16/21
Erdogan’s victory in the presidential elections of June 2018 led to huge celebrations from Kerala to Kashmir. Kashmiri separatist leader Mirwaiz Umar Farookh was among the first to congratulate Erdogan
17/21
Erdogan left no stone unturned for fulfilling his vicious deeds. Be it strengthening ties with our enemy #Pakistan or directly creating turmoil in the valley. Amidst an economic crisis #Turkey can be seen investing in India. Why would a country do that?
18/21
So, What is the likelihood that the Muslim community in India may be susceptible to Erdogan's charms?
Firstly, Turkey and India's Muslims, both non-Arab Muslim communities follow the same Hanafi school of Sunni Islam.
19/21
This is a built-in advantage for Turkey over Saudi Arabia, as Saudi’s way of Islam faces resistance from local Hanafi schools and India's indigenous Muslim culture.
20/21
These facts clearly state that the propaganda being sold by Turkey in line with Pakistan traded #terrorism is being bought by the #Indians, mostly the naïve #Kashmiris
21/21
So, it’s high time for #India to take measures to stop such propaganda before it takes a dangerous turn. Using Islam for propagating radicalization among the population has been an old trick in the book. It seems we have a new rookie in town.
