Soon India will re-brand the Kashmir struggle as an offshoot of ISIS style jihad, Following the model developed by their mentors USofA and Israel and then will use it to kill the Kashmir cause.

Indian plans will fail and be thwarted.

Islamic State claims 'province' in India for first time after clash in Kashmir

NEW DELHI/SRINAGAR, India (Reuters) - Islamic State (IS) claimed for the first time that it has established a “province” in India, after a clash between militants and security forces in the contested Kashmir region killed a militant with alleged ties to the group.

IS’s Amaq News Agency late on Friday announced the new province, that it called “Wilayah of Hind”, in a statement that also claimed IS inflicted casualties on Indian army soldiers in the town of Amshipora in the Shopian district of Kashmir.

The IS statement corresponds with an Indian police statement on Friday that a militant called Ishfaq Ahmad Sofi was killed in an encounter in Shopian.

IS’s statement establishing the new province appears to be designed to bolster its standing after the group was driven from its self-styled “caliphate” in Iraq and Syria in April, where at one point it controlled thousands of miles of territory.

IS has stepped up hit-and-run raids and suicide attacks, including taking responsibility for the Easter Sunday bombing in Sri Lanka that killed at least 253 people.

“The establishment of a ‘province’ in a region where it has nothing resembling actual governance is absurd, but it should not be written off,” said Rita Katz, director of the SITE Intel Group that tracks Islamic extremists.


“The world may roll its eyes at these developments, but to jihadists in these vulnerable regions, these are significant gestures to help lay the groundwork in rebuilding the map of the IS ‘caliphate’.”

Sofi had been involved in several militant groups in Kashmir for more than a decade before pledging allegiance to Islamic State, according to a military official on Saturday and an interview given by Sofi to a Srinagar-based magazine sympathetic to IS.

He was suspected of several grenade attacks on security forces in the region, police and military sources said.

“It was a clean operation and no collateral damage took place during the exchange of fire,” a police spokesman said in the statement on Friday’s encounter.

The military official said it was possible that Sofi had been the only militant left in Kashmir associated with IS.

Separatists have for decades fought an armed conflict against Indian rule in Muslim-majority Kashmir. The majority of these groups want independence for Kashmir or to join India’s arch-rival Pakistan. They have not, like Islamic State, sought to establish an empire across the Muslim world.

Nuclear powers India and Pakistan have fought two wars over Kashmir, and came to the brink of a third earlier this year after a suicide attack by a Pakistan-based militant group killed at least 40 paramilitary police in the Indian-controlled portion of the region.

A spokesman for India’s home ministry, which is responsible for security in Kashmir, did not respond to a request for comment.

[Cthulhu]

Indian plans will fail and be thwarted.

I don't know, This is a model that already proved to work, And now that India is America's ally in the attempt to contain China, You can count that USA's narrative building machine be at work here, Don't underestimate the Uncle Sam's ability to twist the narrative.

 

[HAIDER]

terrorist were trained in india in last attack on srilankan christians . now india is using ISIS .....RAW is handler of ISIS

 

[Pan-Islamic-Pakistan]

There is no daesh in the region, except the one India uses as a proxy in afghanistan and to carry SL attacks.

 

[Pan-Islamic-Pakistan]

India is trying to harm the image of the genuine Kashmir freedom struggle, now with full blessings of US, EU, Israel,etc.

There is no daesh or alqeda in kashmir, except the ones trained by Indians (like in SL.)

They tried to sabotage the struggle of Kashmiris many times using false flags and heavy handed state oppression.

Kashmiris are standing strong, and refusing to give up their wish to merge with Pakistan.

 

[Peaceful Civilian]

It's right time to bomb mujaheedin jihadi camps in india. India is becoming hub of extremism & terrorism , & threat for world peace.

 

[war&peace]

Yup. Same Israeli tactics in Gaza. Israeli advisors are there in Kashmir, training Indian forces on similar lines Israelis employ in Gaza.

See like this, if Israeli advisors are there in IoJ&K then definitely IS/Daesh has to be there as well since it is the best tool created by Israhell to date which not only fools non-Muslims, anti-Muslims but also the fake Muslims (anyone who joins ISIS is a fake Muslim because they can't read ک ف ر written on its forehead)

 

[war&peace]

LOL, I know you are very frustrated, but still all Muslim countries barring Turkey are on China's side, so keep crying.

Many people have bought the total false propaganda by the west. It is the similar fools who become fodder for the zionist plan for the world domination. Many such extremists even join IS - the latest tool of the zionist after years of research. Remember a lot of idiots from UK, EU travelled to join IS.

 

[BHarwana]

India is trying it's best to to give safe heaven to Islamic state is Kashmir and de legitimize the Kashmir freedom struggle. They want to fabricate Kashmir as a terrorist state and kill millions of innocent in name of war on terror. Because India has lost Kashmir politically as shown by recent election. India state sponsored nurses treated ISIS for years in Iraq. India exported ISIS from Iraq to Kerala and now is trying to inject it into Kashmir.

 

[Khanivore]

Bloody hell we want to rule india again , we should not let islamic state get hold in india its also dangerous for pakistan. But perhaps this frees kashmir...

No, it will not free Kashmir. This is the Indians playing dirty - the "ISIS" card - as pretext to mass murder Kashmiris and tag any dead Kashmiri as "ISIS". Think deeper. Analyse the Indian thinking.

Sorry chins for the dissapointment. Uighurs will never be termed terrorists by India. They are rightful owners of their land.

Just as the the citizens of Indian-occupied Assam are the rightful owners of their lands; just as the citizens of Indian-occupied Kashmir are the rightful owners of their lands. Let's not forget our Sikh friends in Punjab who were mass butchered in 1000s in the 80s when Indira Gandhi was assassinated for ordering the mass murder of the resistance group in the holy Amritsar Golden Temple.

Once a person joins Daesh, they should be treated like criminals and kept watch on even if they repent.

This is a criminal enterprise based on uprooting and destroying Islam. Anyone who converts to Daesh is a murtad (apostate) and has committed kufr (disbelief.)

Furthermore they are fully entrenched in Non-Muslim intelligence agencies to destabilize and weaken Muslim nations.

There is no Daesh or Alqeda in Kashmir, this is another one of many Indian games.

 

[Talwar e Pakistan]

Is has recently announced its first province in the South Asia in Kashmir. What are its implications for both Pakistan and India as by the name of province they don't seem to be only against India.

This is a really smart move by India and there is very little the Kashmiris will be able to do as they are severely outgunned in the information war.

Kashmiri freedom fighters have already warned the youth about the efforts of the Indian agencies to link Kashmir freedom struggle with ISIS inorder to malign the independence movement. They have also warned youth to stop waving black flags of ISIS in protests.

ISIS flag waving ploy of Indian agencies, says Riyaz Naikoo, in new audio
Srinagar: Condemning the recent Jamia Masjid incident were ISIS flags were waived by masked youth, Hizb ul Mujahideen’s field operational commander Riyaz Naikoo on Sunday said that ISIS flags are being waved at the behest of Indian agencies and youth are being mislead.

“India has long been trying to break us and now it has come under the guise of Islam,” Naikoo is being heard in a audio message viral on social media network. “Youth don’t understand that it’s a ploy by Indian agencies to defame our movement.”


Naikoo is also heard saying that people should be aware of such conspiracies. “We are an emotional nation. We should use our mind to understand enemies’ plot,” he said, adding that waving of ISIS flags is equal to going against the freedom movement and to ditch the blood of martyrs.

“War is but strategy,” said Naikoo. “One has to use emotions and well as mind in it. One has to decide what’s to be done and what not.”

Naikoo accused people who wave ISIS flags of trying to connect Kashmir freedom movement with Global terror network. “There are people with vested interests who are pushing it. When we are alive they call us murtads but when we embrace martyrdom they appear in our funerals with flags.”

He also added that at one hand Mirwaiz Umar Farooq is trying to unite people for the just cause but these people with vested interests want to divide us.

Naikoo also asked people not to let former chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti enter the houses of martyrs.

“As elections approach she is visiting martyrs families. It’s a drama. Her hands are drenched with blood. She is the same person who said that ‘those killed were not there to buy toffees’,” he said.

“I urge people to throw her out from their houses and don’t let her in,” Naikoo is heard saying. The veracity of the clip couldn’t be verified.
