“Guantanamo is Killing Me”
April 16th, 2013Samir Naji al Hasan Moqbel, prisoner at Guantanamo Bay:
I’ve been on a hunger strike since Feb. 10 and have lost well over 30 pounds. I will not eat until they restore my dignity.
I’ve been detained at Guantánamo for 11 years and three months. I have never been charged with any crime. I have never received a trial.
We are committing a terrible injustice against many people at Guantanamo. Yes, many of them are not innocent—but they should be tried, not left to rot away in a prison.
