This is a documentary from German State Broadcaster.
Seems like Not giving Military bases to America and its allies comes with
a cost then.


Who’s financing, planning and commissioning terror attacks in Europe? This investigative documentary follows a trail that leads to Pakistan’s intelligence service, the ISI, which seems not only to fight terror, but sponsor it as well.

This film aims to find out who’s backing Islamist terrorists. Most of those who’ve carried out attacks in Europe were found to be lone wolves or member of small, independent cells. Here, award-winning author Daniel Harrich looks a bit deeper into the incidents. Leads take him to Brussels, Madrid and London, and to an organization called Lashkar-e-Taiba, or the "Army of the Righteous." It was founded by, and is closely linked to, the Pakistani intelligence service, ISI.

Harrich’s probe uncovered those who were pulling the strings behind many attacks. They are ISI officers, who often work in cooperation with and receive money from their German, French and US secret service counterparts. The filmmakers observe that when the fear of new attacks grows in the West, the more money it sends to its partners in Pakistan. And the more money these partners have, the more terrorist attacks are carried out. "The Business with Terror" probes ISI’s role as a sponsor of terrorism and asks: Where do we draw the line in cooperating with partner intelligence services?

The majority of terror attacks in the west are from ISIS criminals or lone wolves. It is quite a stretch to link them to LET. In fact its lazy and preposterous journalism.
 
What a load of bullocks sponsored by India and PMNL(N).

Really.. Who else is involved.. PPP, Bhuttos, Sharifs, Modi.. ??

I mentioned in the first line, and this documentary is available on Youtube as well, from a German State Broadcaster.
I would be really surprised if Indian lobby has so much strength in Germany.
This seems more like work of the Americans to put some more pressure on Pakistan due to intimacy with China.
Pakistan is a strategic location and Americans are trying their last ditch efforts I guess.
Don't think DW will produce a documentary on CIAs deeds, for like, ever.
 
Expect much more coordinated documentaries, articles and **.

It is as close as things can get to a war "west" against China.

Hopefully, this time Pakistan will play their cards right.
 
Its not a closet secret that ISI was taken over and ran by CIA during the cold war, that relationship has always been there, so instead of pointing the fingers to it, one should look who is above the ISI, like it states in your post

They are ISI officers, who often work in cooperation with and receive money from their German, French and US secret service counterparts.

I mentioned previously, pakistan would be used to fuel more jihadism by the west like in the 80s against China. IK is already on track in taking society that why with the SNC and his medieval speeches.
 
This is what is known as going in with a pre-conceived notion and finding out exactly what you expected - by talking to the 'right' people.

LOL, this is exactly what my Research Methods professor had said once as feedback on how I had presented a paper in class :)

One sided propaganda being lapped up by our joshilay neighbors. Same people who were ridiculing NYT column on India's under reporting of COVID deaths. But now western media is all Halal :D

NYT has been caught pushing agenda against RW in past too.

DW is a state owned media house, meaning that the German government has control over it.

What DW said has been said by many.

NYT caught by whom? The Great Joshila?

DW is just like BBC. Both are quasi independent. BBC has been accused of having a slant as well.

Who are the other many? Bhaktimedia? Srivasta group? ANI?

The same European media outlets have slammed India on many occasions and each time Pakistanis have quoted them with much relish.

Now that they've started blaming a Pakistani agency, it's all one sided-propaganda. :))

You can't have it both ways.

Yes you can.

Just because someone tells the truth once doesnt mean they will always do so.

Look, the ISI are no saints and like many intelligence agencies have played numerous double games....but linking them to ISIS attacks in inconceivable and downright foolish.

ISI scope of influence is very much in countries that are in close proximity. ISIS ideology and methodology is actually completely against the ISI strategic objectives.
 
I'm always amused when Indians and Pakistanis are very keen to refer to western media when it's critical of the other, but they call the same as fake agenda/propaganda when it's critical of their own state.

Happens every single time. I'm not sure if both Indians and Pakistanis realise how hypocritical and ironic it looks on the outside.

I just watched the documentary. It didn't say that the ISI is behind the attacks of the Islamic state in the west.

It said the ISI deals with certain radical terrorist outfits for its own geopolitical objectives, but the said terror outfits (like the LeT) are connected to other radical outfits in the Arab world, Europe and Africa (like the IS, Al Qaeda, etc.) that co ordinate attacks against the west. It even said that the intelligence agencies of the western countries themselves deal sometimes deal with these terror outfits in proxy wars (in Afghanistan, Middle east, etc.) and end up resourcing terror against themselves indirectly.

Its silly to believe that the objectives of the ISI align with the objectives of the ISIS. But the point is it's a well connected network between the intelligence agencies of various countries including the west and that terror attacks don't happen due to lone wolves but as a coordinated effort in a proxy war with help from the intelligence agencies (like the Libyan agency mentioned in the video).
 
Waiting on DW to cover that real threat to Germany and its citizen i-e the far right white extremists. Did anyone know the extent to how much these neo-nazi groups have infiltrated German Intelligence and Security agencies?

Have a listen. This is an eye opening podcast series.

The Day X plot refers to plans allegedly formulated in 2017 by elements within the Kommando Spezialkräfte of Germany's Bundeswehr to assassinate several left-leaning politicians including Dietmar Bartsch

There is an investigative DW Documentary on this as well.
 
'Whole world is against Pakistan' when against Pakistan. Propaganda when against India. Previously I mentioned this hypocrisy on threads that contained western media articles critical of India. Now it's come full circle when it's against Pakistan.

Let's be honest, Pakistanis do the same.

Thats a slightly more nuanced and more valid argument that the synopsis posted in the Original post. Thanks for the write up.

I still dont buy it but will watch the documentary to see if it changes my mind.

Sounds about right. The world's leading powers are engaged in various proxy wars across the globe, very few have clean hands. Everything looks different depending on which side you look at it from.
