1/ Christmas Eve, Sindh High Court Judge KK Agha shocked us by issuing get-out-of-jail-free cards to the 4 men convicted in Daniel Pearl's murder. The govt of Pakistan is fighting that ruling. This is what Danny's brave parents, Ruth and @yudapearl say...
2/ From Ruth and @yudapearl: "We refuse to believe that the Pakistani government and the Pakistani people will let such a travesty of justice tarnish the image and legacy of Pakistan."

3/ We believe our sons murderers should remain in jail because of the Supreme Court Appeals, and we are also heartened to hear the Government of Pakistan is filing an appeal against the latest release order so that our son's murderers will remain in jail and justice will prevail.
4/ Ruth + @YudaPearl: "We have full confidence in the Supreme Court of Pakistan to provide justice for our beloved son and reinforce the paramount importance of the freedom of the press."

Tell @ImranKhanPTI @realDonaldTrump @JoeBiden + all leaders you want #JusticeForDanielPearl

ALERT In hours starting 12 PM ET Fri night / 9 AM Karachi time, Omar Sheikh + 3 men convicted in Danny Pearl's murder will try to walk out of jail. Ruth + @yudapearl ask the govt of Pakistan to stop this miscarriage of #JusticeforDanielPearl. cc: @ImranKhanPTI @realDonaldTrump
1/How did we get here? Born in 1973, Omar Sheikh, a British-Pakistani dropout from the London School of Economics became radicalized at Salafi mosques in London in the early 1990s. He vowed to become a jihadi. He went to Pakistan to wage jihad. And kidnap. theguardian.com/world/2005/feb…
2/ 1994, Omar Sheikh went to India for a militant group, and he used the fake name "Rohit Sharma" to kidnap four tourists, including an American, Bela Nuss, from Connaught Place in Delhi. He was caught by Delhi police and sent to Tihar Jail. nytimes.com/1994/11/01/wor…

You could hear a pin drop in court today. Faisal Siddiqi, attorney for Ruth+Judea Pearl, had to end conspiracy theories that Daniel Pearl is alive. He told judges: autopsy + DNA reports confirm Danny's murder. The reports are uploaded here for journalists.
asrainvestigates.substack.com/p/family-attor…
Warning: The details in this report of Daniel Pearl’s murder are of a very sensitive nature. They underscore the heinous nature of this crime against humanity and the urgent need for #justiceforDanielPearl. The DNA report is here, public for the 1st time: drive.google.com/drive/folders/…
Warning: We know that Danny's killers beheaded him, in this crime now repeated from Iraq to France. When his remains were found, the police saw that his killers were even more brutal. The link to the autopsy report is inside my article. asrainvestigates.substack.com/p/family-attor…

BREAKING NEWS: 'Anti-Racist' @fcpsnews @justicehswolves social studies teacher @MatthewSLevi harasses Black and Asian parents with fake account @Antiracist14, calling them 'Motherfucker,' agents of 'White Supremacy' + 'segregationists.'

This minute, as @fcpsnews holds "work session" to replace TJHSST admissions with lottery, @MatthewSLevi uses @Antiracist14 during the school day to slur parents + attack TJ parents -- and his boss @FCPSSupt Scott Brabrand.

"...you think I give a fuck about Scotty B...."
It is @FCPSSupt who has set the stage for this kind of RACISM against TJHSST Asian + Black families. As I write, his team + he talk about TJ alumni as "stakeholders" but he ignores parents -- and his own @FCPSPsychs office FOLLOWS this racist @Antiracist14.

Dec 2, Day 2 in trial in Pakistan to realize #justiceforDanielPearl. Thank you @AP @awanyousaf for your video reporting. @GovtofPakistan @SindhGovt1 lawyer Farooq Naek speaks to media. Ruth & @yudapearl lawyer Faisal Siddiqi arrives.
Thread👇🏽 from @AnasMallick’s notes in court.
“The Daniel Pearl murder was a strain of international terrorism,” Farooq Naek, Sindh govt special prosecutor, told judges. He laid out how Omar Sheikh used a fake identify to trap Danny. Danny was chasing a story that a cleric, 👇🏽Sheikh Gilani, directed shoe bomber Richard Reid. Image
Omar Sheikh was sitting in the office of a jihadi org in Islamabad when the phone rang. “Arif” answered. A journalist Danny had hired asked if anyone knew how to find Sheikh Gilani. Omar heard. He faked being a student of Gilani. He set up to meet Danny at the Akbar Intl Hotel👇🏽 Image

😳@fcpsnews TODAY REQUIRED students at non-TJHSST school to give views BY NAME on TJ admissions + an anti-TJ story by @hannah_natanson about a TJ student. Hannah & FCPS do NOT disclose: the student is a leader in 501c4 lobbying group @TJAlumniAG & her mom has been on FCPS payroll ImageImage
Now cue up #parentshaming. What @hannah_natanson and @SujathaHampton peddle are lies TJ parents “attacked” the student. We are clear: students are off limits. But we are unapologetic in holding unethical adults, including @TJAlumniAG @washingtonpost @FairfaxNAACP accountable.
Why are @fcpsnews @FCPSSupt demanding answers from students BY NAME about admissions policies at a school, TJHSST, that isn’t even their own? Why are they demanding the students read a hit piece on the school? And why don’t they disclose the conflicts of interest? ImageImage

Live tweeting here....Watch @fcpsnews @FCPSSupt town hall on his race-based lottery admissions plan to no. 1 high school NOW 7 PM-8 PM. Critical race theory in suburbs.
WATCH: fcps.edu/tv/ch99
CALL IN if you believe in merit, race-blind admissions: 1-800-231-6359
So @FCPSSupt admits it's e "social justice" plan that he is all about. He says TJ demographic isn't representative demographic of Fairfax County. His goals are 100% race-based and it's 100% anti-Asian. Read my @cityjournal piece with @maxeden99 cityjourn.al/3confyu
What a shame! 100s of letters by parents, students, community from @coalitionforTJ and it's the same song and dance about a "portrait of a graduate" that @FCPSSupt claims TJ doesn't have now, but @FCPS happily brags about the mostly Asian students wtop.com/local/2020/04/…
