Today marks 21 years since #Guantanamo Bay was opened.
The first Muslim men set foot in the Guantanamo Bay detention centre. Hooded, shackled and restrained by ear defenders.
#FreeTopG is trending, can we have the same energy and zeal for #Guantanamo detainees? 🤔
#CloseGitmo
#CloseGitmo is still a topic 21 yrs later because the Muslims aren't using their influence. The people can organize themselves. We don't need puppet governments who'll sell us out to do it for us. We need more citizen councils & people of influence to step up. We can make change!
10 years ago, Diane Wilson jumped the White House fence urging Obama to #CloseGitmo .
Tomorrow is the 21st anniversary of its opening, and people are still caged there.
We'll be holding events across the country demanding Biden shut down Gitmo once and for all! ☮️

People must speak out, not just against Guantanamo but against the ever-expanding counter-terror network which re-names and re-shapes the same concepts that contribute to the idea of Guantanamo #CloseGitmo
Rolling Stone One way to get to the bottom of 9/11 is to hold a trial for the ostensible mastermind, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. But 22 years after the attacks on DC and NYC, Joe Biden refuses to bring KSM to justice. Why?
