News: "'My son is helpless. I do not ask for mercy, I ask for justice'
Moazzam Begg: Still in Guantanamo Bay, facing a military tribunal"
The more I read about the situation several families are facing, dealing with loved ones being held in Cuba by the US Military, the worse I feel about the situation. It's now been two years since these guys were arrested and they've still not been charged with any crime or allowed access to a lawyer. One man in this article hasn't even seen his youngest child. His family says he was working as a foreign aid worker, digging wells.
Of course, the sceptic would say these are all lies and in some cases they probably are. However, are you really so convinced of the efficiency of the US Military (whose own casualites in Afghanistan came more from friendly fire than the Taliban) that only the guilty were captured? Imagine two years of being tortured, placed in solitary confinement etc. without ever having done anything to deserve it.
God, free the innocent. Don't cast them aside with the guilty.
