    President Obama,
    Two events occurred at the end of 2009 that called me attention:

    Second: Your Nobel Prize award in Oslo.
    Antonio Guerrero, Fernando Gonzalez and Ramon Labañino are three of the five Cubans who are inhumanely detained in your (…)

    22 December 2009 par (Open-Publishing)

    The European campaign 2009- 2011 for the liberation of political prisoners in Colombia was launched on October 2009 in Brussels, Belgium. The prisoners number 7,500, and they are mainly prisoners of conscience and social activists - when they are not workers, peasants, indigenous people or students fighting for a dignified Colombia, one with peace and social justice!
    Because of the September 11 2001 attacks in New York, the United States conceived and imposed the “Colombia Plan”, (…)

Mohamed, an Ethiopian who moved to Britain as a teenager, was arrested in 2002 in Pakistan.
    He alleges he was subjected to sleep deprivation and had his (…)
