  1. #FreeBrad twitterstorm. Begins 6am pst/9am est/1pm GMT
  2.  
  3. #FreeBrad blow the whistle on war crimes. Twitter packagae
  4. OBJECTIVE
  5. To expose and project the war crimes that Bradley Manning bravely exposed and build a powerful outpouring here and around the world in support of his bravery, creating a political situation where the powers that be must drop the charges on Bradley Manning and must end their war crimes now. World Can't Wait published a full page ad to Close Guantanamo Now in The New York Times last Thursday with the pictures of the men still at Guantanamo who have been cleared for release. Without Bradley Manning, we would not have these pictures or know the names of 55 of the 86 people still in Guantanamo who have been cleared for release. Two main goals for this twitterstorm.
  6.  
  7. 1) Call people out for international days of action on June 1st, the day before Bradley Manning's trial. Especially at Fort Meade Maryland where Bradley Manning will be going to trial.
  8.  
  9. 2)Further project the war crimes that Bradley Manning exposed by publishing the Close Guantanamo Now ad in international media and get out Collateral Murder much more widely ( the video that Bradley leaked that shows the U.S. military killing a journalist and other civilians in Iraq from an apache helicopter)
