Daniele -- Salih Hudayar of the East Turkistan National Movement in Washington, DC, has already refuted a number of these claims in an article he sent to Militant Wire that has yet to be published. You should consider interviewing him to get the other side of the story, before publishing something like this again.

What do you disagree with?

What I write comes from their official propaganda and direct interviews with them.

I am available for a confrontation

Danielle -- you should have also spoken with Mr. Hudayar for the other side of the story.

I will do so, but I would like to understand what in the portrayal of the Uyghur-majority jihadist groups and their propaganda that I have written you do not find correct.

Since I have only reported what they publish and say.

I am talking about jihadist groups.

I don't think they are.

So I don't see how it fits into my analysis.

Mr. Hudayar says that our intention is not to have a confrontation but to have a civil discussion on why we believe that the "TIP" are a Chinese false flag / controlled opposition used as propaganda to undermine / prevent international support to the East Turkistan national independence struggle as well as to falsely portray Uyghurs as "terrorists" in order to justify its campaign of colonization and genocide as so-called "counter terrorism."

It would be great if you and Mr. Hudayar could talk virtually or by email. How can I get in touch with you to arrange that?

The initial and introductory part you refer to are by the investigative journalists of Akhbar al-Aan (in fact, there are links to it), the site where it was published.

I only deal with the security and jihadism part, the main part of the analysis.
