A breaking news Associated Press report revealed this morning out of Guadalajara, Mexico that a Mexican federal court has denied Duane Dog Chapmans injunction request and has ruled that the star of A&Es Dog the Bounty Hunter should be extradited... On February 16, 2007 the Mexican federal court denied Dog and his posse an injunction request and ruled that they should be extradited and stand trial for deprivation of liberty. The charge stems from the 2003 capture of the convicted serial rapist, Andrew Luster, in Puerto Vallarta. Learn more about the case and get the latest updates. [7]http://www.aetv.com/dog_the_bounty_hunter/dog_capture.jsp ---------------------------------------------------------- TV bounty hunter Duane (Dog) Chapman waits for court action on pending extradition JAYMES SONG HONOLULU (AP) - Duane (Dog) Chapman is waiting to hear whether a Mexican federal court will set him free or order his pending extradition and criminal case to proceed. The 53-year-old TV bounty hunter is charged under Mexican law with "deprivation of liberty" for his June 2003 capture of fugitive convicted rapist Andrew Luster, the Max Factor heir, in Puerto Vallarta. "Inside, I'm dying," Chapman said in an interview with The Associated Press at his spacious ocean-view home. "On the outside, I'm a Hawaiian citizen." His attorney, William Bollard, will present arguments starting Monday. Chapman will not attend the closed hearing in Guadalajara. "We consider this a critical hearing because it could resolve the matter," Bollard said. "We're putting a lot of eggs in this basket because if we can cut it off at the path, the (criminal) trial never takes place." Chapman was arrested Sept. 14 along with his son and another associate and is free on $300,000 bail. He has been aggressively fighting extradition. "It's been the most nervous week by far in many years," he told the AP. "In Mexico, you're guilty until proven innocent. It's not like America. You must prove your innocence. That's their law. It's nothing bad or good. That's just their law." Chapman faces up to four years in a Mexican jail if convicted. "It's very ironic, isn't it?" said his wife, Beth Chapman. "He may go to jail for catching a rapist. We're in trouble because we caught America's escaped prisoner." Chapman's capture of Luster catapulted the Honolulu-based bounty hunter to fame and led to the A&E reality series "Dog the Bounty Hunter." Luster jumped a $1 million bond and disappeared during his trial in California's Ventura County on charges that he drugged and raped three women. The disappearance set off a national and international manhunt by police, FBI and bounty hunters trying to recoup some of the bond money. Luster is now serving a 124-year prison term. Chapman said he was never paid for Luster's capture. The Canadian Press, 2006 ========================================================= ===================== re canadian sos/dfait legal mail - *********************** [metro press] If convicted, Black would be better off in a Canadian jail My mom has a saying which loosely translated from French means May God protect you from a moment of folly.? Conrad Black obviously fell victim to such a moment in 2001 when faced with then prime minister Jean Chr?iens efforts to scuttle his chances of becoming Lord Black.? To outmanoeuvre Chr?ien, Black removed the impediment?to peerage by renouncing his Canadian citizenship. Now faced with a huge indictment for fraud in the United States, Black needs to brace himself for the worst contingency of all ?the possibility of doing hard time in a U.S. jail far from his Canadian family, friends, and lawyers. How could re-acquiring Canadian citizenship help him? The answer lies in our federal International Transfer of Offenders Act which came into effect in 2004. Officially, this law is designed to legally implement treaties which Canada has entered into relating to the international transfer of persons convicted of criminal offences. Canada and the U.S. signed such a treaty in 1977. One of the purposes of the Act is to contribute to the rehabilitation of offenders and their reintegration into the community by enabling offenders to serve their sentences in the country of which they are citizens.? The charges laid against Black carry decades of potential jail time. If convicted, Black would be better off serving the time here since the conditions in our jails are generally viewed as being less harsh than those in the United States. Secondly, our parole policies are also considered to be more generous than those in the U.S. Finally, if the sentence imposed by the U.S. is longer than the maximum sentence provided for in Canadian law for the equivalent offence, Black would serve only the shorter sentence. Only Canadian citizens are eligible for such a transfer. Black would have to wait until all the avenues of appeal in the U.S. have been exhausted. Then he must obtain the consent of the U.S., and then of Canada, to the transfer. The receiving state, i.e. Canada, would be responsible for his transportation and incarceration costs. Once here, the American verdict and sentence would not be subject to any appeal or other form of review in Canada. Right now, it is unclear if Black has actually applied to regain his Canadian citizenship and, if so, if he will get it. One thing is for sure. His one moment of folly must be keeping him up late at night. Guidy Mamann is the senior lawyer at Mamann & Associates and is certified by the Law Society as an immigration specialist.

"On behalf of the government of Canada, I wish to apologize to you, Monia Mazigh and your family for any role Canadian officials may have play in the terrible ordeal that all of your experienced in 2002-2003," Stephen Harper said in a public statement to Arar. "I sincerely hope these words and actions will assist you and your family in an effort to begin a new and hopeful chapter in your lives." Arar said that the apology and compensation will help him begin to rebuild his life. "The government of Canada and the prime minister have acknowledged my innocence," the 36-year-old software engineer calmly told a news conference. "This means the world to me." He thanked his wife for the "courage and strength she has shown all along" and the Canadian public for standing behind him. "Without the support of the Canadian people, I may never have come home and I may never have been able to stay strong and push for the truth," he said. Harper said that the government will also pay Arars legal fee, which are about $1 million. The compensation is the highest amount Ottawa has ever paid out to an individual. "I appreciate the fact that for many Canadians this a large amount of money," Harper told a news conference on Parliament Hill. "All I can say is ... that is our assessment of the amount that Mr. Arar would win in a lawsuit." Arars lawyer, Julian Falconer, said the governments package was "nothing less than a triumph of innocence." To those who would say that the compensation is too rich, Falconer said he did not believe anyone would trade places with Arar, considering all that he went through. Arar was arrested in New York in 2002 during an airport stopover on his way home to Ottawa. He was deported to Syria and spent a year in jail before he was released without charges. Arar, who says he was tortured during the year he was jailed in Damascus and confined to a grave-like cell, filed a lawsuit in 2004 seeking $400 million, but he reduced his claim to $37 million in December. Arars ordeal prompted a public inquiry and a final report last fall placed the bulk of blame on the RCMP for sharing false intelligence information with American authorities that Arar was an "Islamic extremist." Former RCMP commissioner Giuliano Zaccardelli resigned over the case in December. Arar remains on a U.S. border watch list, despite Canadas request to remove his name after the public inquiry removed him of "any taint or suspicion." Earlier this month, the Bush administration wrote Canadian officials saying that its decision to bar Arar from the U.S. remains "supported by a recent re-examination of the case. The affair has strained Canada-U.S. relations and Harper refused today to back down. "We think the evidence is clear that Mr. Arar has been treated unjustly. He should not be on a watch list," Harper told reporters. "I personally believe if there was evidence suggesting that any of these suspicions against Mr. Arar were justified, that case would have been made a long time before today." He added that the federal government, as well as formally objecting to the United States over its treatment of Arar, has also lodged a complaint with Syria. Arar moved from Ottawa to Kamloops. B.C., with his wife and their two small children last summer. He said publicly last fall that he still suffers from anxiety, nightmares and flashbacks. The settlement comes as a result of mediation talks between lawyers for Arar and the federal government. In his lawsuit against the federal government, Arar alleged negligence, negligent investigation, defamation, false imprisonment, assault and battery and abuse of public office. This week, the issued heated up and threatened to cause a rift in Canada-U.S. relations. Last February, a U.S. federal judge threw out a lawsuit by Arar, which took the government to task over the shady practice of "extraordinary rendition," whereby terrorism suspects are sent to regimes with spotty human-rights records for interrogation. Justice Dennis OConnor, in his report, recommended compensation and an apology to Arar, which he said "should recognize the suffering that Mr. Arar has experienced, even since his return to Canada."

Please consider signing this letter on behalf of Troy Davis.

Troy Davis was sentenced to death for the murder of Police Officer Mark Allen McPhail in Georgia. The case against him consisted entirely of witness testimony which contained inconsistencies even at the time of the trial. Since then, all but two of the state's nine non-police witnesses from the trial have recanted their testimony. Many of these witnesses have stated in sworn affidavits that they were pressured or coerced by police into testifying or signing statements against Troy Davis.

[5]Amnesty USA: Human Rights Month 2007; ICC Posted by: "Human Rights Academy" [6]hracademy at wcl.american.edu Tue Jun 19, 2007 4:46 pm (EST) [aicap rec'd june 19, 2007] How often have you had the opportunity to personally right a wrong that would offer protection to thousands of people? In the past few weeks, Congress has begun moving toward restoration of habeas corpus - the fundamental right of a prisoner to challenge their detention in an independent court of law. Finally, we have a real chance to restore this core human right shamelessly trampled upon by Congress and the Bush Administration. Amnesty International and our coalition partners are leading an aggressive nationwide people-powered movement to restore habeas corpus and the America We Believe In. By making a tax-deductible gift right now, you can help Amnesty win this critical battle. As you know, when Congress passed the Military Commissions Act (MCA) last October, it gave President Bush the absolute power to decide who is an "unlawful enemy combatant" and lock them away indefinitely without charges or trials. Individuals were historically protected from such abuses by the writ of habeas corpus, but the MCA recklessly abolished this centuries-old right for any non-U.S. citizen in American custody. Your gift today will enable Amnesty International USA to: Dispatch activist teams to conduct in-district meetings with key members of Congress Organize citizen delegations to visit 45 House and Senate offices to build support for legislation to restore habeas corpus Bring thousands of activists to DC on June 26th for A Day of Action to Restore Law and Justice Hold trainings and distribute tool kits for young Amnesty activists Please join Amnesty in putting an end to the Bush Administration's abuse of power and restore centuries-old American values and traditions. Your generous donation of $35, $50, $100, or $500 can make a difference by helping us recruit and organize activists, conduct trainings, lobby Congress, and engage in critical public outreach. Every gift matters in this urgent fight! Thank you for helping to restore the America We Believe In. Sincerely, Larry Cox Executive Director Amnesty International USA ?

United States with cautious optimism. While the decision permits appellate courts to apply a presumption of reasonableness when reviewing within-guideline sentences, sentencing judges are not bound by the presumption and will be able to exercise judicial discretion under the advisory sentencing guidelines. The vote was 8-1, with only Justice David H. Souter dissenting. Mary Price, vice president and general counsel of FAMM said, "There is much in the opinion that will give heart to our members. Rita is saying hands-off to appeals courts whose opinions threatened to reinstate mandatory sentencing. This case came before the Court after many U.S. Courts of Appeals failed to abide by the lessons of United States v. Booker. Booker transformed mandatory federal sentencing guidelines into advisory guidelines. Instead, many appeals courts enforced a presumption of guideline reasonableness on lower courts." "The presumption of reasonableness imposed by many courts of appeals assumed that a sentence within the guidelines was the reasonable sentence and that a sentence outside the guidelines was not. This presumption was in turn imposed on sentencing judges, who frequently saw their below-guideline sentences overturned on appeal because they violated the presumption of reasonableness," said Price. In this way, sentencing courts were actively discouraged from individualizing sentencing. In Rita, the Court affirmed that judges may apply the guideline sentence if it is appropriate, based on the individual factors in the case, but are not required to impose the guideline sentence based on an appellate court's presumption of guideline reasonableness. Instead, the Court ruled, sentencing judges must follow the law of sentencing. That law directs sentencing judges to impose sentences that are sufficient to serve the interests of society, but never greater than necessary to punish it's wrongdoers. Sometimes the guideline sentence will satisfy that mandate; often it does not. Said Price, "FAMM's files are filled with stories of defendants sentenced to unjustly long guideline sentences by judges who felt compelled to abide by the guidelines, but who also stated on the record that the guideline sentence they were forced to impose was unjust in light of the facts and circumstances of the case. The Rita opinion means that sentencing judges like them are not bound by any presumption that the guideline sentence is reasonable or mandatory. " Much remains to be seen as the lower courts sentence and the appeals courts review them, and FAMM awaits the Courts decision in the next case to address the issue, United States v. Gall. There the court will determine how the presumption of reasonableness affects sentences that fall below the guideline sentence. FAMM will participate in the Gall case with an amicus brief this summer. "While the Court reserved until next year the issue of how below-guideline sentences are to be handled, todays decision should give sentencing courts the ability to reject a guideline sentence when it is not appropriate in a given case without fear that the sentence will be reversed by an appeals court applying a mechanical presumption of reasonableness," said Price.

FAMM promotes sentencing policies that give judges discretion to distinguish among defendants and to sentence them according to their role in the offense, the seriousness of the offense, the potential for rehabilitation and the characteristics of the defendants. FAMM believes that the punishment must always fit the crime and envisions a world where sentencing is individualized, humane and sufficient but not greater than necessary to impose just punishment, secure public safety and support rehabilitation and reentry.

Elijah was 18 years old when he and two co-defendants were charged with the murder of Chester Allan Poage. One co-defendant was tried by a jury and sentenced to life in prison. But Elijah and the other co-defendant waived their right to a trial and were given a death sentence. When sentencing Elijah Page to death, the judge acknowledged Elijah's childhood of deprivation and abuse, saying "your early years must have been a living hell." From early childhood Elijah lived in abandoned houses with his mother who would allow people to sexually molest him in exchange for drugs. Now at 25, Mr. Page is scheduled to die by lethal injection on July 9. He is the 5th inmate this year to waive his appeals or "volunteer" for execution. Send a strong message to Governor Rounds that he has the power to prevent South Dakota from taking a major step backwards by stopping this unjust execution. In solidarity, The Program to Abolish the Death Penalty Amnesty International USA ========================================================= =========== [cis news] Napolitano gets illegal-hiring bill Giving jobs to the undocumented yields harsh penalties under plan By Howard Fischer The Arizona Daily Star (Tucson), June 21, 2007 [10]http://www.azstarnet.com/sn/border/188480 Phoenix -- The Legislature on Wednesday passed a comprehensive plan that would put firms that repeatedly and knowingly hire illegal immigrants out of business in Arizona. The bill says a single violation could suspend a company's state licenses for up to 10 days. But House Bill 2779 also would let judges waive that penalty based on factors ranging from the number of illegal workers employed to the duration of employment. Companies also would be able to present evidence that their directors or officers were not involved in the hiring. But a second violation within three years would mean permanent revocation of state licenses. The legislation also says those who commit intentional violations — defined by Rep. Russell Pearce, R-Mesa, as recruiting illegal entrants for jobs — definitely would be put out of business for at least 10 days for a first offense. And the probationary period would last five years. Lawmakers sent the bill to the governor on a House vote of 47-11, and a 20-4 tally in the Senate. Gov. Janet Napolitano said Wednesday that she had not seen the final version of the bill. But Napolitano, who last year vetoed an employer-sanctions bill that she said was too weak, indicated a willingness to sign this measure. 'I have been saying for a long time you cannot deal with the border simply by talking about troops and fences and so forth,' the governor said. 'You have to deal with the underlying labor issues,' she continued. 'And you have to have a law that can be enforced on those who intentionally go around the law to hire labor illegally.' If Napolitano does sign it, Pearce, who has been the driving force behind the legislation, said he will recommend that allies scrap plans to ask voters to approve a more punitive initiative. That measure would put a firm out of business for just one knowing violation of the law. Not everyone was enthusiastic about the legislation. Sen. Barbara Leff, R-Paradise Valley, worried that a 'rogue' employee in charge of hiring, acting without blessing of the business's owners, could put a large company out of business by hiring one or two janitors who are in the country illegally. 'So we now have 1,200 people who will lose their jobs — 1,198 of them who are American citizens,' said Leff, who chairs the Senate Committee on Commerce and Economic Development. 'What do we tell those people who have all lost their jobs?' But Pearce, who has been the driving force behind the legislation, said that can happen only on a second offense — and only after a judge found the firm knowingly or intentionally broke the law. Rep. Steve Gallardo, D-Phoenix, also objected to the mandatory revocation for a second offense. He noted that judges would have no discretion to consider other factors. But Pearce said the legislation makes it easy for employers to obey the law. It specifically requires companies to check the legal status of new employees through the Basic Pilot Program — now formally known as the Employment Eligibility Verification Program — a database run by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. And it says any company that uses the program is entitled to a 'rebuttable presumption' that it has not hired undocumented workers — essentially a legal defense against being found guilty unless a prosecutor can show the employer really didn't do the checks, or do them properly. Most business groups oppose the legislation — with one major exception: The East Valley Chamber of Commerce Alliance supports the bill as a preferable alternative to the initiative. But Jessica Pacheco, lobbyist for the Arizona Chamber of Commerce and Industry, said state legislators should instead let Congress enact an immigration measure. +++ Penalties for hiring illegal migrants advance By Matthew Benson The Arizona Republic (Phoenix), June 21, 2007 [11]http://www.azcentral.com/arizonarepublic/news/articles/ 0621leg-sanctions0621.html Ariz Employers at Risk for Illegal Hires By Paul Davenport The Associated Press, June 21, 2007 [12]http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/ 06/21/AR2007062100013.html ---------------------------------------------------------- T.O. gains say on newcomers By Tom Godfrey The Toronto Sun (Canada), June 21, 2007 [13]http://torontosun.com/News/TorontoAndGTA/2007/06/21/ 4277740-sun.html For the first time, Toronto will be working with the province and Ottawa to make decisions on the way immigrants and newcomers are treated in this city, World Refugee Day celebrants heard yesterday. Mayor David Miller said he's signed an agreement to be at the decision table with two levels of governments in dealing with the resettlement of newcomers since more than 60% of all immigrants end up here. 'For the first time the city can have its say on immigration and refugee matters,' Miller told several hundred immigrants and refugee supporters at the Yonge-Dundas Square. 'We fought for Toronto to have a role to play in important refugee issues.' Quebec is the only other jurisdiction to have a say in the way immigrants are picked and resettled. 'Many residents of the city are living proof of the contributions immigrants have made to this city,' Miller said. Canadian Idol judge Farley Flex was the MC of the refugee day show, which that featured African, Hispanic and Caribbean bands, many with performers who were former refugees. Jahanshah Assadi, of the United Nations High Commission for Refugees, said the war in Iraq has led to an increase in the number of refugees worldwide from 8.4 million in 2005 to 10 million last year. 'We must keep the asylum door open,' Assadi said. Iraqi businessman Aziz Sepan, 43, of Mississauga, said he's sponsored 100 family members and other Iraqi Christians to Canada since arriving in 1989. 'I am grateful that at one time someone helped me,' said Sepan. 'No one I ever sponsored has ended up on welfare.' ------------------------------------------- Center for Immigration Studies 1522 K St. NW, Suite 820 Washington, DC 20005 (202) 466-8185 fax: (202) 466-8076 [14]center at cis.org www.cis.org ------------------------------------------- [15]Back to top [16]Reply to sender | [17]Reply to group | [18]Reply via web post [19]Messages in this topic (1) [20]Visit Your Group Yahoo!

The call came as the world prepared to mark the 20th anniversary, on 26 June 2007, of the entry into force of the UN Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment, adopted in 1984 for signature and ratification after long campaigning by Amnesty International and other organizations. On the eve of that anniversary, a substantial majority of the world's states -- 144 in all regions -- will have ratified the Convention and a further eight states will have signed it. Its adoption has contributed to regional treaties prohibiting torture and torture has been included as a war crime and a crime against humanity in the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court. The Committee against Torture regularly reviews reports of states parties on the implementation of the Convention, making findings and recommendations to states on how to prevent and punish torture and provide reparations to victims. The Committee also examines individual complaints by victims alleging torture. The UN has appointed a Special Rapporteur on torture to address reports of torture and recommend actions by all states, whether they are parties to the Convention or not. The Convention has a number of important features. It defines torture (Article 1) as both a human rights violation and a crime, involving the intentional infliction of severe pain or suffering for purposes such as punishment, intimidation and the obtaining of information, when done by officials, at their instigation or with their consent or acquiescence. It requires each state party to "take effective legislative, administrative, judicial or other measures to prevent torture," makes clear that "o exceptional circumstances whatsoever" justify torture and rules out any defence of superior orders (Article 2). Article 3 prohibits the transfer (refoulement) of anyone to a place where he or she risks torture and Article 4 requires that all acts of torture be defined as a crime. States must investigate when anyone suspected of torture is found on their territory (Article 6), must provide for universal jurisdiction over such persons (Article 5 (2)) and, if such suspects are not extradited, submit the case to their prosecutors (Article 7 (1)). They must investigate promptly and impartially whenever there are reasonable grounds to believe that an act of torture has occurred in territory subject to their jurisdiction or such an act is alleged (Articles 12 and 13). States must train all law enforcement personnel not to torture (Article 10), provide reparations to victims (Article 14) and exclude any statement made as the result of torture in any proceeding, except to prove that torture occurred (Article 15). The Convention also requires states to take measures against other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment (Article 16). Last year saw a further major development towards greater protection against torture and other ill-treatment. On 22 June 2006, the Optional Protocol to the Convention, which had been adopted on 18 December 2002, entered into force. To date, 56 States have signed the Protocol, and 34 have ratified or acceded to it. The Protocol mandates independent international experts to conduct regular visits to places of detention within states parties, and requires states parties to set up national mechanism to conduct visits to places of detention and to cooperate with the international experts. However the Convention, and the struggle to rid the world of torture and other ill-treatment in general, continue to face serious challenges. These challenges include, first and foremost, the continued infliction, in many countries, of torture and other ill-treatment on detainees, prisoners and others. In police stations, prisons, military detention facilities, interrogation centres and other locations all around the world officials abuse the absolute power they have over defenceless persons deprived of their liberty and inflict pain on them, or else they allow others to inflict such pain with impunity. Amnesty International's annual reports depressingly show, year after year, that the majority of states in the world still torture or ill-treat persons under their control. Of the 153 states and territories surveyed in the organization's 2007 annual report, at least 102 had resorted to torture or other ill-treatment. Another challenge is the attempts by some to challenge the absolute prohibition on torture and other ill-treatment, for instance by arguing that they are essential weapons in the "war on terror." Facing an outcry against such a call for states to adopt criminal conduct as official policy, certain governments have resorted, instead, to playing word-games, making definitional and interpretational manoeuvres including by: claiming that certain methods of interrogation or forms of punishment do not constitute torture; claiming that the prohibition on cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment is not quite as absolute as that on torture, and therefore states may ill-treat prisoners in certain circumstances; "subcontracting" torture to other states and claiming that responsibility rests solely with them; circumventing non-refoulement obligations through devices such as diplomatic assurances. Why is the eradication of torture and ill-treatment proving so elusive? Reasons include lack of political will and failure to enact effective implementing legislation, to provide training, to investigate or prosecute, extradite and to establish effective procedures for victims to obtain reparations no matter who committed them and no matter where the torture occurred. What must be done? States must take their international obligations seriously. Those which have not ratified the Convention must do so. Those which have attached reservations weakening the Convention's protections must withdraw them. Those which have not allowed individual complaints to be considered by the Committee against Torture must now allow such complaints. Those which have not ratified the Optional Protocol must do so. States must also contribute generously to the United Nations Voluntary Fund for Victims of Torture. States parties should also nominate and vote for independent candidates of the highest calibre in elections to the Committee against Torture which will take place on 8 October 2007. Candidates should possess a broad experience relevant to the Convention, an in-depth understanding of issues relevant to the deprivation of liberty and a long-standing commitment to human rights. Candidates should not hold a position in the executive or legislative branch of government. In order to improve the selection of candidates, states should put in place a process at the national level which is consultative, transparent and well-publicized. Amnesty International urges states parties to ensure that considerations of quality prevail over those of politics in the forthcoming elections. At the national level, states must amend flawed implementing legislation and enact effective implementing legislation where none exists, provide training, establish special units of police and prosecutors to investigate reports of torture and to prosecute suspects, including on the basis of universal jurisdiction, or extradite them to states able to do so in fair trials without the death penalty or the risk of torture or ill-treatment. Indeed, they must never transfer anyone to any place where they would be at risk of torture or ill-treatment. They must establish independent, professional and adequately resourced national visiting mechanisms in accordance with the provisions of the Optional Protocol. A positive example of action at the national level is the appeal launched today by Redress in the Parliament in London to enact the Torture (Damages) Bill, introduced in the House of Lords on 5th March 2007 [HL Bill 49]. This bill, strongly supported by Amnesty International, would provide effective procedures for fulfilling the United Kingdom's obligations under Article 14 of the Convention against Torture by permitting any victim of torture to obtain reparation in civil proceedings even when committed abroad. Torturers must not be allowed to get away with their crimes -- be they perpetrators, their civilian superiors or military commanders or the state as a whole. Victims must not be left to suffer -- their torture must be stopped, their torturers punished, and their right to reparation ensured. -- HREA - [10]http://www.hrea.org Human Rights Education Associates (HREA) is an international non-governmental organisation that supports human rights learning; the training of activists and professionals; the development of educational materials and programming; and community-building through on-line technologies. --======================================================= ========== [ai] Dear aicap, Re: 385 prisoners, only 1 conviction The 5-year-old prison at Guant?namo is a stain on the honor of this country. By holding people at Guant?namo without charge, without judicial review, without appropriate legal counsel, and ... subjecting many of them to torture, we have forfeited the moral high ground and we stand as hypocrites in the eyes of the world. - Sen. Tom Harkin, introducing his bill before the Senate If you agree that we must close Guant?namo Bay prison and restore the America We Believe In, take action now to help Amnesty win this critical battle. Sen. Harkin's Guant?namo Bay Detention Facility Closure Act of 2007 gives the Bush Administration 120 days to either charge or release Guant?namo prisoners. This and other congressional initiatives finally offer a real chance to put this dark chapter behind us - and begin the difficult work of reinstating core American principles of justice. A few days ago, even President Bush's former Secretary of State Colin Powell called for closing Guant?namo. As you know, many Guant?namo detainees have been subjected to torture and held in a legal no-man's land without charge or trial for up to five years. Your donation today will enable us to recruit young activists, conduct in-person trainings, lobby Congress, and engage in public outreach to intensify pressure to close Guant?namo prison once and for all. If you agree, please join Amnesty today by making a tax-deductible gift to help us close Guant?namo now and restore our nation's historic respect for human rights and due process. Thank you for helping to restore the America We Believe In.
