A Jihadi Propaganda Machine? No.

We take it as a badge of honor to be honest. When we engage with analysts on social media, it’s to understand their point of view and share ours. That is where intelligence becomes intelligent. But when analysts decide that their opinion is the only possible opinion and become hostile, well, we just won’t accept that.

It will be on rare occasions that you’ll find me addressing the CommandEleven audience about something related to CommandEleven. We didn’t build this platform, bring the best analysts together and begin counter the negative image being wrongly portrayed about Pakistan to sit back and accept someone’s blind judgement of our work and organization.

Let’s us be crystal clear – CommandEleven has never supported any jihadi organization and never will.

You will not find, on any page of our website, support for or acceptance of any jihadi teachings or ideology. Conversely, I, along with some of our team members, have been directly involved in countering the menace of violent extremism in Pakistan.

We had to provide that disclaimer due to an accusation made by the analyst whose opinion we questioned.

CommandEleven is a platform that is singularly pro-Pakistan. Our analysis and commentaries reflect what we understand to be the best options to resolve national security, counter terrorism and counter insurgency challenges within our borders and with neighboring nations. While many people may not understand, or agree with our positions, they are all supported with facts and an experience that comes from living 15 years in a war zone.
