An amazing #CloseGuantanamo event in the #EuropeanParliament today with 4 former Guantanamo prisoners inc Mansoor Adayfi 441 منصور الضيفي author of 'Don't Forget us Here', American lawyers, September Eleventh Families, UN Special Rapporteur Fionnuala Ni Aolain, Andy Worthington and others....
Torture was central to Guantánamo’s founding and still infects its every function. Many in the Bush administration hoped the site would maximize secrecy and impunity for torture, evading the law ad public scrutiny: cvt.org/what-we-do/adv…

Guantánamo detention facility has been synonymous with torture for more than 22 years. Down from a peak of 779, today there are 30 men held there, many of whom were tortured by the US. More cvt.org/articles/break…

No good reason for GITMO to still be open after 21 years and after the torture of so many innocent people #CloseGuantánamo #FreeThemAll
I’m out today covering a rally advocating the closure of the US military-operated Guantanamo Bay Detention Camp in Cuba and the welfare of the current and former prisoners held there. Any/all footage to be released via Ford Fischer News2Share #CloseGitmo #CloseGuantanamo
21 years have passed. I was in the first group to arrive. The pain is gone, but there is still another pain that remains. When I hear, there are still detainees, and the prison has not been closed yet, unfortunately 😞 #CloseGuantanamo #FreeGuantanamo20
Thank you Andy Worthington for coordinating the #CloseGuantanamo monthly global vigils!
#SanFrancisco Amnesty International USA & World Can't Wait! & #HumanRightsDefenders joined the April 3rd 2024 vigil:
President Biden & Secretary Antony Blinken = #CLOSEGITMO & safely release the 16 men cleared for release NOW!
The audacity of the US government claiming that Cuba sponsors terrorism while refusing to close its illegal torture camp operating on Cuba’s sovereign territory against their will

Incredible book and a proper heartbreaking story. We all knew Guantatamo was monstrous, inhuman and unlawful but what Mansoor Adayfi 441 منصور الضيفي has written in these 400 pages is beyond belief.. #DontForgetUsHere #CloseGuantanamo
30 humans remain in Guantánamo. 16 have been cleared for release, some since 2010.

Muslims must advocate for the Uyghurs, but the West news media does not get our sympathy. What the Chinese did to Uyghurs, America did with Muslims all over the world. Same stories, Muslims getting detained without evidence. #FreeUyghurs #FreeTheAseer #CloseGuantanamo
