Please prevent the beheading and crucifixion of political prisoner Ali Mohammed al-Nimr in Saudi Arabia.
Al-Nimr is scheduled to be executed this week. His crime? Participating in anti-government protests.
The Saudi Arabian government denied Al-Nimr access to a lawyer and the basis of his conviction is a confession obtained through torture.
Allowing our ally to engage in egregious human rights violations erodes our country's moral authority and makes it more difficult for us to combat our enemies, such as ISIL.
As the President of the United States, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's most powerful ally, please exert pressure on the Saudi Arabian authorities to stay al-Nimr's execution.
