What a tragedy, this great humanitarian disappearedin Assad gulag for FIVE YEARS
A man who insisted his staff be included in his award
A great human being
Assad cannot be allowed continue his reign of terror & torture with impunity
@ABlinken#FreeMajdKamalmaz is a US citizen
Just less than 2 months before he was forcibly disappeared in Syrias dungeons he was awarded the Hearthmath Humanitarian of the year award..5 yrs later we still don't know anything about him. @POTUS@StateSPEHA@brett_mcgurk@jakejsullivan@SecBlinken bring our father home. 😥
I'm going to continue retweeting this video of my father @FreeMajdK until the entire world knows what type of innocent & humble people are forcibly disappeared in #Syria
American psychotherapist, Majd Kamalmaz has been held hostage in Syria since February 2017.
A couple months ago, I had the honour of interviewing his daughter, @MKamalmaz from Texas. She tells us what happened.
Great news that all members of the US-based missionary group have been released from their captivity in #Haiti. We hope the other 50 Americans currently held hostage and wrongfully detained around the world will soon be home with their families too. #BringAmericansHome
In 2021 we helped more journalists than ever before:
- created new resources on risks of photojournalism & surviving kidnapping & wrongful detention
- delivered our curricula to at least 40 universities
- published an Arabic version of our undergrad curriculum with @SK_Eyes
There are at least 16 innocent foreign nationals currently held hostage in #Iran. They are from the US, UK, Canada, France, Germany, Switzerland, Sweden & Austria. There could be more.
These countries must work together to hold Iran accountable for their hostage diplomacy (1/2)
Journalist Austin Tice was detained in Syria on August 14, 2012. It's Monday, the beginning of another week. It's time for Austin to come home. #FreeAustinTiceift.tt/3bAzN5v
After campaigning with families of hostages for 6 years to free their loved ones and seeing many of them struggle to get publicity, I created this podcast so they could share their stories
It’s only 3 months old, I do everything on top of a day job but it is very important work

Trevor Reed has been moved to a prison hospital. We hope that he receives a real eval & treatment for his medical issues unlike the prison hospitals he has been to in Moscow. One provided no treatment for Covid & another placed him in cell with psychotic killers, “by mistake”.
Trevor Reed has not been able to call home in 159 days! Russian Prison IK-12 excuses:
1. He can't call anyone (LIE)
2. You don't have enough minutes on card (LIE)
3. Prison doesn’t have the capability to make international calls. (Probably LIE)
Did it take 3 months to learn this?
The James W. Foley Legacy Foundation believes our fellow detained Americans deserve a life without manipulation or harm. And they deserve to have their government fight for their freedom. To learn more visit jamesfoleyfoundation.org.
