Guantanamo Bay detainees have been starving themselves for nearly two months in a desperate plea to be noticed by the world. Many of them have languished in this American-made gulag for over a decade, never charged, never receiving a trial, with no access to justice and no dream of ever leaving. Our own government appears to believe that at least 86 of these men are innocent; a government task force cleared them for release.
That was three years ago. What are they still doingin Cuba?
The imprisonment and forced-feeding of innocent men at Guantanamo Bay is a violation of human rights and the ideals of freedom and justice that America has always claimed to uphold. It is senseless and wrong. The answer is simple: STOP FORCE-FEEDING DETAINEES. RETURN THEM TO THEIR HOMES AND FAMILIES.
