Close Guantanamo

Here's John Grisham's important New York Times op-ed about ‪#‎Guantanamo‬, focusing on the case of Nabil Hadjarab, an Algerian orphan, long cleared for release, who may be returned to Algeria instead of being given a new home in France, where he has relatives. Congratulations to John Grisham for this. Far too few celebrities have gone out of their way to publicly criticize the horrors of Guantanamo, whose ongoing injustice shames us all.

Congratulations to John Grisham for Writing about the Injustice of Guantánamo | Andy Worthington

www.andyworthington.co.uk

In the long and horrendous history of the “war on terror” prison at Guantánamo Bay, it has been noticeable that very few celebrities have challenged the myriad injustices of Guantánamo — the torture; the indefinite detention without charge or trial; the decision by the Bush administration to tear up...

US Oil Sands, and the state of Utah, wants us to believe that their tar sands project in Eastern Utah has had good government & public involvement, that their extraction process is based on sound science, and that their main concern is with public safety.

Lies, lies, lies.

Our own Rachel Carter calls them out on these, and other fraudulent claims, in her great op-ed in today's The Salt Lake Tribune, ""Protesters had good reason to block road."

Please LIKE & SHARE if you believe that, to stop climate injustices like tar sands, we are left with no option but direct action!
