@Snowden Bravo @Snowden! The hypocracy in the so-called “leader of the free world” is astounding. #Assange @StateDept @POTUS

You are holding Julian Assange in a dungeon for exercising the freedom of expression you so ardently claim to defend. How about decriminalizing it at home before you take to a podium and point your finger abroad?
The Hill@thehill
.@StateDeptSpox: "We've made consistently clear to Saudi authorities that freedom of expression should never be criminalized. The exercise of the universal right like freedom of expression should never be criminalized."

Julian #Assange won the Sydney Peace Foundation's prestigious Gold Medal for his work exposing crimes against humanity committed by our governments in wars we were lied into. The US government wants him in prison for the rest of his life because he exposed US crimes.

My brave friend & my lawyer Doug Coltart @DougColtart who stood by me when I was arrested & tortured by the regime has been arrested. I know few hearts as pure as Doug. We call for his immediate release. The regime continues to stupidly lose its marbles #FreeDougColtart

This is what Zanu PF does to Honourable Members of #Parliament in #Zimbabwe. Hon @ToffaJasmine was campaigning peacefully for @CCCZimbabwe and was seriously assaulted by 4 Zanu PF thugs who broke both her hands and bruised her using poles & karate kicks. @ZECzim @PoliceZimbabwe

I am utterly appalled that my friend, colleague & fellow lawyer Daniel @molokele has issued the distress call @daddyhope has posted. The international community must speak out. @CyrilRamaphosa @HHichilema @HelenClarkNZ @CatharineHoey @SwedeninZW @NLinZimbabwe @UKinZimbabwe
Hopewell Chin’ono@daddyhope
Opposition MP Daniel Molokele @molokele has sent out this very distress call to his wife, Dr Samu Dube. His team was campaigning in Matopo when they were attacked by ZANUPF thugs abandoning their cars. Today saw orgies of violence in Matebeleland against @nelsonchamisa’s CCC.

If I fly the exact same Kigali route with a 1 day stopover in Harare instead of the 20 min stopover, the price is R28k. This is really unacceptable. Dayflight robbery! 😡

What's wrong with aviation companies in Africa? A return ticket for a 6,5 hour flight on @FlyRwandAir from Cape Town - Kigali costs R18700, which is R1000 more than a 18 hour flight ticket Cape Town to Kathmandu.

Julian Assange, the publisher of @wikileaks, has been held in solitary confinement in a maximum security prison for 3 yrs. He has not been convicted of any crime. The UN says is being tortured. For telling the truth. While those who committed war crimes go free. #FreeAssange

🔵Justice minister Ziyambi Ziyambi has maintained that Gukurahundi is a buried chapter in Zimbabwe and accused those clamouring for justice for victims of the 1980s killings by the army of parroting European thinking.

A Meta-commissioned report finds that @Facebook/@Instagram censor social media posts by Palestinians & their allies, including on rights abuse, as Palestinians have long said & @7amleh, @hrw & others have documented. @meta should stop muzzling voices challenging Israeli apartheid
