‘Stop Funding Hate’ desperately wanted to strip Opindia of advertisement revenue for showcasing the true plight of Leicester Hindus to the world, who were left at the mercy of Islamists and their sympathisers in the media industry.

The targeting of Opindia by the SFH began after we exposed the tactics, adopted by The Guardian journalist Aina J Khan, to blame the violence against Hindus in Leicester on themselves.

In a @guardian article, Khan had distinctly associated religious identity with groups of Hindu protestors but shrewdly chose not to point out the religious affiliation of the man who desecrated a Hindu temple and uprooted a saffron flag.

In a bid to shield her co-religionist who desecrated the Hindu place of worship, Khan used the bait of a ‘good Imam.’
She thus shifted the public discourse from the vicious attack on the temple to the alleged benevolence of a ‘bystander’ Imam.

When Opindia pointed out the obvious discrepancy in her reportage, Aina J Khan cried foul and dubbed the criticism as ‘Islamophobia.’

Given that Opindia has been the frontrunner in debunking disinformation about the Leicester violence, @StopFundingHate sought to attack the messenger.

SFH took particular offence to an Opindia article, criticising George Soros for disseminating anti-India narrative through leftist news portals.
It begged companies such as Highways UK, Vikings UK, and even Nike to exclude Opindia from online advertising. (9/n)

This is however not the first time that the anti-semitic organisation has tried to coerce companies to cut advertising revenue to our news platform.
They tried this earlier in 2020 over an article on discriminatory practices in the Halal industry.

.@StopFundingHate has tried its bullying tactic in the UK as well, against newspapers such as The Sun, Daily Mail and the Daily Express.
Stop Funding Hate has in its board members associated with far-left organisations. They have been described as ‘far-left Corbynistas’. (11/n)

Richard Wilson, one such board member, has been formerly associated with Amnesty International, the dubious NGO which is under investigation in India for alleged violation of FCRA laws and has a history of links with radical Islamic organisations.

It is important to understand here that SFH is no different from FCRA NGOs such as Amnesty which openly attempt to influence the politics of the country, which is extremely problematic considering its links to the British government.
