Dispatch International (DI) is a publication, launched in 2012 and run by Lars Hedegaard, that serves as a mouthpiece of the counterjihad movement.[1] As well as a website, DI's founders aspired to publish a weekly print newspaper.

History

It launch is believed to have been announced at Counterjihad Brussels 2012 conference and it was reportedly co-founded by Hedegaard's close associate Ingrid Carlqvist.[2]

Carlqvist's LinkedIn page states that she had been 'editor in chief' since 2012.[3]

Activities

An edition of the newspaper available online, published 30 August 2012, states that the publication will be published 'every Thursday in Danish, Swedish, English and German'.[4]

The publication has carried interviews with many counterjihad activists including Henrik Rönnquist[5] and Tommy Robinson.[6]

Pegida Sweden links

According to English language translations of Swedish press reports, DI supporters were involved in the first, poorly attended protest of Pegida Swerige, an attempt to start a movement similar to the PEGIDA protests seen in Germany.[7].
