We are happy to share with you all that the efforts of The American Center for Law & Justice have made to bring awareness about Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani and his situation is reaping over a million tweets with over one million tweeting about Pastor Youcef every single day.
The Christian Post is reporting on the overwhelming success of this campaign.
Those who sign up for the "Tweet for Youcef" campaign allow the ACLJ to use their Twitter accounts to post a daily Nadarkhani update, which includes the number of days Nadarkhani has been imprisoned, facts about his court case, and a link back to the ACLJ's Nadarkhani information page.
Since the campaign began in mid-February, it has gained a substantial following, now reaching 1.1 million Twitter users per day in 89 percent of the world's nations.
Of those nations, 35 are mostly Muslim populated or governed by some form of Shariah law -- including Iran, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Syria, Egypt, and Libya, the ACLJ told CP via an emailed statement.
"The ability for people all over the world to express their support for Pastor Youcef is remarkable. We're delighted that the 'Tweet for Youcef' campaign expanded so quickly reaching one million Twitter accounts daily -- truly an important milestone," Jordan Sekulow, executive director of the ACLJ, told CP.
"But, we're not stopping there. The number now exceeds 1.1 million -- a vital tool in providing information, support for Pastor Youcef, and pressure on Iran to release him without delay," he added.
The Christian Post goes on to report on the numerous celebrities who have joined the Tweet for Youcef campaign. Some of the celebrities include: Patricia Heaton, Donald Trump, Megyn Kelly, Michelle Malkin, Rep. Michele Bachmann, and Ann Coulter.
