Let Shaker Aamer go home to the UK

Created by J.F. on May 08, 2013

Shaker Aamer, a Guantanamo detainee, was born in Saudi Arabia, but is a resident of Great Britain. He has a wife and four kids waiting for him back in London. The youngest child has never met his father because he was detained when his wife was pregnant. He was a charity worker in Afghanistan in 2001 under allegations that he was a recruiter, financier, and facilitator for Al-Qaeda. These allegations have been proven wrong and he has been cleared for release in 2007. As he is not a Yemeni, there seems to be no good reason why he hasn't been sent home already. Over a hundred thousand UK citizen's have signed an online petition asking their government to demand the US release him back to the UK. I petition for his immediate release of this innocent man back to his family in the UK.
