Propaganda Roundup. Hunger Strike in Cuba, Threats to Freedom, Hamas and Human Rights
The Propagandist's Allies are on the warpath. Better get out of their way, bubba.
- Jailed Cuba dissident dies in hunger strike. "Villar launched his hunger strike shortly after he was arrested in November, put on trial and sentenced to four years in prison for crimes including disobedience, resistance and crimes against the state."
- Defend Freedom of Expression on 11 Feb. Gladly.
- Malawian women protest over 'trouser attacks'. Just try to imagine some retail vendor beating you up and stripping you down in the middle of the street because he doesn't like how you dress. Yes, this really happened.
- France gets a clue, suspends all operations with Afghan army after Afghan soldier murders four French troops. It happened again. "Scores of Nato troops have been shot dead in recent years by their Afghan partners raising fears of widespread Taliban infiltration and underlining the tense relations on the ground between the allies."
- Hamas says it will investigate attack on human rights activist. Sure. Foxes guarding the henhouse.
- The Arab spring through women's eyes. Not looking good.
- Are you now or have you ever been an Islamophobe. Nope.
Confusion to our enemies!
