Support the Hunger Strikers
Shut down all illegal prisons
March via Downing St to the American Embassy, Grovesnor Sq.
"The only way we get people out, is through the court of public opinion." Clive Stafford-Smith, who has represented 40 of the Guantanamo Bay prisoners.
All British nationals were released from Guantanamo Bay this year following intervention by the British government. However no representation has so far been made on behalf of the nine British residents. Instead they are advised to apply for "consular assistance" from their countries of origin. For Omar Deghayes, a Brighton resident for 20 years, this would mean appealing to the Gaddafi regime who murdered his father, and have visited him at Guantanamo to threaten to kill him if he ever returns to Libya.
Omar, along with an estimated 210 other detainees, has been on hunger strike for four months asking for enforcement of Geneva Conventions at Guantanamo.
Called by the Save Omar Deghayes campaign &
The Birmingham Guantánamo Group.
