How the US gov funds native informants to spread Islamic reform online.
Jay Hashmi is a troll who is often in my replies crying about how I'm "scared" to debate him. I get about a dozen debate challenges per day from no name losers like Jay, but...

...Jay is different because he was recently hired as a director at @mpac_national.
MPAC is a "Muslim" org with a long history working for the US gov to police, surveil, and entrap Muslims.
MPAC has worked closely with the FBI and DHS to implement CVE policies against Muslims.

What is CVE? It is the gov program developed post 9/11 used in numerous countries to target religious Muslims by characterizing them as "extremists" for things like growing a beard, being strict about not drinking, or believing that Islam is the only religion acceptable to God.
CVE was developed in Europe and the US but was exported internationally via UN Security Council Resolution 2178 which "requires governments to take action to counter violent extremism (CVE)."
Many human rights groups observe that CVE has been used to persecute Muslims post 9/11.

What you may not realize is that CVE is the program used by:
- Mukhabarat in Arab countries
- China to target Uighurs
- BJP to target Indian Muslims
- Israel to target Palestinians
The "Global War on Terror" is a global war on Islam and CVE is the policy behind it.

Now, I'm getting back to Jay.
Many Muslim orgs have directly worked with the US gov on CVE, hired CVE operatives, or received CVE grants.
MuslimSkeptic has several articles on this regarding orgs like Yaqeen Inst, ISPU, & more:

But, the worst offender is MPAC.
MPAC pretends to be a Muslim advocacy org while in reality working with the feds to surveil and entrap Muslims.
Here is a report on just how corrupt and sleazy MPAC is and how deep their lies and deception really go: ehsan.substack.com

MPAC was so thoroughly shamed for their involvement with CVE, they were forced to issue a disingenuous apology (that did nothing to fix all the damage theyve done): archive.ph
The admission of guilt was especially dishonest bc MPAC is back to working with the feds!

.@SalamAlmarayati MPAC's president has been involved with the Bush, Obama, Trump, and Biden admins. He was working with the US gov immediately after 9/11, advising the Bush admin on how best to fight "radical Islam."

What is amazing about Al-Marayati is that he was even working (quietly) with the Trump admin's Dept of Homeland Security. Most American Muslims, even the most morally bankrupt sell-outs, stayed clear of the Trump admin to save their reputation, but not Salam!
His work with DHS continued into the Biden admin.
In Sept 2022, Al-Marayati was appointed to the DHS Faith Based Security Advisory Council.
The Council includes hardcore Zionists, Hindutva-aligned Indians tied to RSS, and career shills and CVE veterans like Al-Marayati.

The uber-Zionist org Muslim-Jewish Advisory Council immediately celebrates the appointment of pro-Zionist CVE shills like Mohamed Magid and Talib Shareef, the other two "Muslims" on the council with Al-Marayati.
Now what does this Faith Based Council do exactly?
Jay and other shills working for the feds claim it is just about "protecting houses of worship."
But let's take a closer look...

The DHS website says that one of the main objectives is information sharing between feds and faith based orgs. What kind of information (i.e., surveillance) do faith based orgs share with the feds?

What "information sharing" between sell out imams and Muslim orgs involves is basically surveillance. Any Muslim that is "suspicious" or "too religious" or "extreme" gets reported to the FBI and DHS via Fusion Centers and other gov liaisons.
A lot more can be said about how the US gov uses orgs like MPAC to spy on and police Muslim religious beliefs. But let's move on to Jay's role in all this.
Jay started his new role at MPAC in Oct 2022. This was shortly after Al-Marayati's DHS appointment.

MPAC's current involvement with DHS and Jay's position as director raises many troubling questions.
The US gov and colonial states have a long history of using "native informants" like Marayati and Hashmi to advance liberal repression of Muslims.

Hashmi fits *perfectly* the profile of what RAND calls the "modernists." These are "Muslim" reformers who are supported by the US gov to push Islamic reform and secularization onto the Muslim community.
See RAND's Civil Democratic Islam, pg 63

Notice how RAND emphasizes that modernists need to be supported in competing with fundamentalist/traditionalist Muslims.
This is why Jay is so eager to debate me and others. His employment at MPAC with its fed-backing enables this kind of work, pushing Islamic reform.

Some of the liberal heresy Hashmi pushes:
- Hadith cannot be relied upon
- Stories of the prophets in the Quran are all myths/legends
- Anyone who identifies as Muslim should be considered one, even if he worships idols and is a polytheist
- Islam accepts all religions as valid

- Stories of the prophets in the Quran are all myths/legends
- Anyone who identifies as Muslim should be considered one, even if he worships idols and is a polytheist
- Islam accepts all religions as valid
What makes Hashmi more malicious than the average native informant is that he constantly accuses Muslims of being affiliated with ISIS or other terror groups in order to get them in trouble with feds.
For example, he has accused me of being "one step away" from suicide bombing.
For example, he has accused me of being "one step away" from suicide bombing.
He has accused prominent Muslims figures like @Farid_0v and @DrTalAbdulrazaq of being ISIS supporters or "one step away" from becoming ISIS.
When confronted for his dangerous rhetoric that endangers the lives of Muslims and their families, Hashmi either laughs it off or makes mealy-mouthed disingenuous half-apologies that he follows up with liking other ppl's tweets accusing the same Muslims of being ISIS.
But Hashmi's CVE work doesn't end there.
Recently he tried to implicate Deobandis as radicalizing Muslims extremists. He says that Deobandis inspire terror networks. Notice how he says that what inspires terror is religious dogmatism. This is straight from CVE, as we saw above.

Ironically, when it is convenient for him, Hashmi acknowledges that baselessly accusing people of being ISIS or Taliban supporters is "clear Islamophobia."
This is the doublespeak Hashmi engages in to dupe his few followers.

Hashmi claims that he is anti-imperialism and anti-colonialism. Yet his actually statements and behavior as well as his employment with MPAC, a DHS-sponsored federal agency, tell a very different story.
Anyone can claim anything. But actions and affiliations don't lie.

Now, since Hashmi has begged to debate me on modernism, I have accepted. I agree to debate him on how modernism is pushed by native informants who work for liberal governments, as exemplified by MPAC and Hashmi.
Hashmi claims that this topic is not relevant to Islamic modernism.
This shows Hashmi's deep ignorance of the historical and political dimensions of modernism and its weaponization against the Muslim community.

Hashmi wants to arbitrarily limit the scope of debate in order to avoid the most problematic aspects of his ideology and his work. He says if I do not accept his convenient limitations, I am "scared."
No, Jay. You are scared. I am happy to debate you on modernism in your work.
No, Jay. You are scared. I am happy to debate you on modernism in your work.
I have even offered Jay a second debate as consolation. If he debates me on native informants and MPAC's work for CVE and the feds, I will happily debate him on other aspects of modernism in a second debate.
Why doesn't Hashmi agree to this?
Why doesn't Hashmi agree to this?
Is it because he does not have permission from his handlers at DHS? Does his fed-funded salary not cover debates that blow his cover and the cover of his boss @SalamAlmarayati?
What kind of "information sharing" are you doing with DHS, Javad? Where is the transparency?

No Muslim should engage with this murtad shill until he agrees to be scrutinized by the Muslim community he has been deputized by the US gov to attack.
It is unethical to share a platform with someone who very well may be covertly reporting our community to the government.
