Albania and Tel Aviv hosting suspicious, anti-Iranian accounts

 

 

 

 

 

According to Mashreq , in October this year, Nikita Beer, head of product at X (formerly Twitter), announced that after months of internal discussions and reviews, the platform had finally decided to add a new feature to display the country or region of users’ activity in the profile section. According to him, this feature is currently enabled only for his account and some X employees and will be released to all users later. Beer emphasized that the main purpose of this feature is to help determine the authenticity of account activity; especially in an era when the presence of bots and AI-based accounts has become much more prominent and visible online than in the past.

 

Now, after a few months, Platform X announced in an official post that clicking on the “Joined” date on the profile will open the “About this account” section, which includes things like the country or region the account is operating from, the number of username changes, and the App Store associated with the app download.

 

This new feature has sparked a lot of controversy in cyberspace and has raised many questions about individuals and companies. One of the most high-profile incidents was the incident of the US Department of Homeland Security Twitter account, which was revealed to be managed from the center of the Zionist regime, Tel Aviv. After the reaction to this revelation increased, less than a day after activating this feature, Company X exempted many US government accounts, including this account, from displaying location information, first denying it and then calling it a technical error.

Despite the removal of this data, American users still wonder why elements of the Zionist regime are so involved in American domestic and foreign policies; this regime has not only dragged the United States into regional wars but has even taken over the management of a Twitter account on domestic security issues. This has caused some American citizens to doubt the accuracy and impartiality of security reports. Some are concerned that the narrative about security events within the United States will be influenced by Zionist narratives and that anti-Israel or pro-Palestinian figures will be introduced as perpetrators or suspects in the incidents through targeted representations.

 

Counter-revolutionary figures have also created a ruckus among Persian accounts, and are now desperately seeking to publish their approximate and real locations to clear themselves of the charges. Meanwhile, it has been revealed that the Iranian Center for Human Rights was founded in Albania and is managed in the United States.

 

During this controversy, which exposed the behind-the-scenes of a large part of the affiliated cyber networks, the MKO TERRORIST GROUP was not left out. By examining the behavior of accounts that had retweeted one of Maryam Rajavi’s posts, and by randomly selecting 100 accounts, Twitter users came to a remarkable pattern: 61% of these accounts were located in Germany; followed by the Netherlands 11%, Canada 8%, France 5%, Sweden 4%, the United States 4%, India 3%, Italy 2%, and only 2% were in Albania.

 

This distribution shows that Germany is by far the largest active MKO TERRORIST GROUP community, and it is likely that a significant portion of the group’s members have moved to Germany from Albania in recent years; Maryam Rajavi’s account is also managed in Albania. It seems that a limited number were active in Camp Ashraf, and the core members were dispersed across Europe.
