The following statement was posted on YouTube by Al Jazeera English.
Across the United States, there has been a growth in organizations that
portray Islam as a threat.
Over two years, the number of groups that make up what’s become known as
the Islamophobia industry has more than tripled.
This investigation reveals the tactics these groups use to instigate a
fear of Islam, including how they manipulate social media to create a
false narrative that Muslims are trying to take over the country.
Anti-Muslim messages proliferate social media with bought-in followers,
fake accounts and robotic amplifiers.
The investigation also shows how these organizations try to suppress the
rise of a Muslim political voice in America. It uncovers the “dark
money” that has fueled the rapid growth of Islamophobia Inc. - tens of
millions of dollars which is funneled through secretive, anonymous
donor funds.
We unveil the donors of the dark money and ask; what do they ultimately
hope to achieve?
