When ur in chains, living with no dignity or rights, bowing to criminal dictators, the first step is to forget ur fear & realize that its ur right.. to be angry

Aqeela and Tahira only know their grandfather, Abdul-Hadi Al-Khawaja, from prison visits. Nonetheless, they fondly remember his "big smile and warm hug." Let Abdul-Hadi Al-Khawaja celebrate his birthday with his family. #FreeAlKhawaja

#Bahrain regime put out a pathetic attempt at an excuse today falsely stating my father wasn't taken to his appointments (including to see a cardiologist) because he's refusing to go.
My father is a #torture survivor who shouldn't be in prison to begin with.

Yet again, on the 12 year anniversary of when they broke my father’s face, left us wondering if he was alive or dead for days as they tortured him at the military hospital; they have denied my father access to a cardiologist today.

As we mark 12 years, my father was told he’s going to the cardiologist today. They made him wait for over an hour then only took the other prisoner. When my father asked why he’s being singled out the guard said “you’re different”.

Today marks 12 years since my father was brutally arrested in front of my family, his face fractured in 4 places; 12 years since he was dragged away leaving a bloody trail after saying “I can’t breathe” as he was beaten unconscious.

A day before his birthday, my father was informed that he is banned from regular calls as punishment for a protest he did two months ago when he was denied a scheduled call to his family. Today he was supposed to call my sister but didn’t.

Happy 62nd birthday baba. Last time we spoke you told me “they want to make sure we live and die here”. We’re doing everything we can to make sure you don’t die in their prisons.
I love you. Hope you celebrate your next birthday with us.

Abdul-Hadi Al-Khawaja has a family history of #glaucoma with his father being treated for it and his grandmother being blinded. The denial of proper medical care for prisoners is a clear violation of their human rights. #FreeAlKhawaja #humanrights #denmark #Bahrain

It is such a sad thing to say -and maybe even wrong to admit- but sometimes I find myself wishing I could sleep until it is over, regardless of what "over" will actually be
I am just too tired of this accumulating suffocating pain/anger
and they are relentless in their cruelty
