From: tommcdona3@PROTECTED Hi Masoon, In addition to NWOPC, I'm a member of a local Catholic social  Justice group including priests, lay people and Sr. Sharon.  I'd like them to sign on to a separate press release stating that they are in solidarity with NWOPC on the Guantanamo issue and will be joining NWOPC at the demo on Sunday.  The U.S. Catholic bishops have  made various statements in the past criticizing detention practices at Guantanamo.  Are you OK with my doing this? Let me know ASAP. Thanks, Tom McDonald On Sun, Jan 7, 2018 at 5:30 PM, Maysoon Otaibi p.p.

Please join us to call for an end to the indefinite detention, the immediate transfer of the cleared detainees, and the closure of the barbaric prison.  Guantanamo Bay is a symbol of our nation's use of torture and violation of human rights. Of the 41 people still held there, most have never received a trial or been charged with a crime, even after over a decade of imprisonment. Unfortunately, Trump has said he plans to send more people to be held without trial in Guantanamo. If he does, it may make it impossible to ever close the prison at Guantanamo. We must raise an outcry against this immoral plan and send our message to the President and Congress: close Guantanamo now! What: Close Gitmo Now When: Sunday, Jan 14 at Noon Where: Corner of Sylvania and Talmadge For the FB event page, please click on the link below: https://www.facebook.com/events/161268817932019/ -- "If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will   not appreciate your neutrality."                                                  Desmond Tutu.
