Please join us for a demonstration on Friday, 6 February, from 6-7pm, outside the US embassy, Grosvenor Square, London. W1A 1AE (nearest tube: Bond Street / Marble Arch).
Binyam was picked up in Pakistan in 2002, rendered to Morocco and Afghanistan’s infamous “Dark Prison”, where he was interrogated and horribly tortured for over two years by or on behalf of the US, with the knowledge and complicity of British intelligence, before being transferred to the US military prison camp at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, where he has remained ever since. Binyam has now been on hunger strike for over a month, and his military lawyer reports that he is close to starvation.
It is time for President Obama to make a clean break with the heinous practices and deceit characterising the neo-conservative Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld regime. It is time for Obama to put his money where his mouth is and stop assisting in the cover up of US involvement in torture on behalf of his predecessors, who should be handed over to The Hague to stand trial for war crimes.
The London Guantánamo Campaign this week marks the second anniversary of its regular presence outside the US embassy, where it has been calling for an end to US involvement in torture, extraordinary rendition, indefinite detention without charge or trial and other human rights abuses committed in the name of the so-called "War on Terror".
We invite you to join us this Friday for our monthly demonstration at this most crucial time for Binyam and our campaign.
Please join us on Friday, 6 February, 6-7pm, US embassy, Grosvenor Square, W1A 1AE (nearest tube: Bond Street / Marble Arch).
