On 21st May 2016, two opposing protests took place outside the Islamic Da’wah Center in Houston, Texas. One was organised on Facebook to oppose the centre by a group called Heart of Texas and the other to support it by a group called United Muslims of America. Many people saw the posts and attended, on both sides. The two demonstrations eventually descended into confrontation and verbal attacks. In fact, both protests had been organised by the Russian disinformation operation.
