Anyone thought to ask if Mr Hanekom and his co-accused know of or are connected to Erik Prince's company Lancaster 6, which stands to gain billions by the destabilisation of northern Mozambique in order to benefit from vast natural gas reserves? https://t.co/W6zIoi1ZgU

[CAGE International @CAGEintl]

And we will continue to call for your arrest and trial for War Crimes.

Breaking : Unknown foreign military aircraft conducts a drone strike targeting #Somalia’s Jubada Hoose province, in which three vehicles packed with civilians where bombed outside the town of Afmadoow.

[Halgan Media @Free_Somaliweyn]

How many people actually noticed this lie

Yesterday the #US claimed they killed 8 AL Shabaab fighters in a drone strike on the 15th of December (L) but today they release a new statement claiming they killed 34 AL Shabaab fighters in same drone strike on the 15th of December (R)

And it is done using private mercenaries like Erik Prince, whose presence in Mozambique - just to name one country - in the name of "fighting Islamism" is being greeted with more than a little cynicism. https://t.co/6NEjA7AnMl

Spare a thought for Khashoggi's son, banned from leaving Saudi Arabia, who had to go and do this today

Eid Mubarak to all my family and friends. On this Eid please remember the Uighur Muslims in China who are suffering the indignity of being forcefully culturally assimiliated. They are not permitted to pray, fast or even marry without being harmed in their practice.

“It was the colonialist’s frenzy to unveil the [Muslim] woman. In this battle, the occupier was bent on unveiling…because there is in it the will to bring this woman within his reach, to make her a possible object of possession.”

- Frantz Fanon, 1959

Incredibly tragic. Completely innocent. Discarded and forgotten in the #torture dungeons that is #Guantanamo.

Let us close this abominable place and release these innocent victims.

The first Muslims arrived in the United States in 1619, with up to 1.3 million under slavery in the Antebellum South (Bedouyn, 2017).

The first "Islamic" terrorist attack on US soil was 1993.

If Islam promotes terrorism, then explain why 400 years of ZERO attacks in US?

This is footage from Jigjiga yesterday before the Internet was shut down as civilians poured into the streets proudly waving #Somalia's flag for the first time in public without fear since the 1977 war

Civilians in Jigjiga defeated the Ethiopian army & liberated the city

When calling out human rights abuses is 'extremist', then we are all in trouble. @kjayes in the Mail and Guardian.

When calling out human rights abuses is 'extremist' then we are all in trouble. @kjayes discusses the furore around the BRICS summit and why South African Muslims must resist attempts to divide the community.

The war on terror is evolving. The MS-13 scare is like the Bush Administration's weapons of mass destruction scare; family separation is of a piece with previous torture and detention scandals. It is not sudden norm erosion, but a long, coercive mutation of domestic governance.
