  1. The Committee on Information is the propaganda arm of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) and Mohager Iqbal has functioned as its chief propagandist for years. Iqbal, using the pseudonym Salah Jubair, has authored several editions of "Bangsamoro, a Nation Under Endless Tyranny," a propaganda publication that laid out the MILF case for a Bangsamoro homeland.
