AFNM need to have a protocol to protect their named leaders! 3 years ago we have seen how a coordinated attack on Fano leaders led to resetting of the struggle 3 years back.
What is going on now sounds like SEASON 2 of the same horrible targeting that led the movement into disarray fir 3 years. "Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me...." fits right here.
Don't let history repeat itself, stop with the unsubstantiated rumors, gossip and character assassinations. If you have evidence lay ot bare, if not shut up. People also need to start asking those that slander Fanos foe accountability.
This extends to all advocates who are attacked as well. The recent extreme targeting of Fano Asres is part of a coordinated attack on the struggle. It is a Psy-Op and it needs to be stopped!
Imagine, what other effective method is there to discount an organization better than making sure the designated PR loses his credibility? Don't repeat the same mistake draw a line here and now.
