Open letter to Trump from past Guantanamo prisoners | Opinion
16 The signatories condemn Trump’s order to arrest documents in the military prison.
We, the former Guantanamo prisoners, are expanding the executive authorities of US President Donald Trump for prisons for undocumented people in Guarantor Gulf.
Guantanamo is not just a prison – it is a place where the law is crashed and dignity is peeled, and those who suffer are hidden behind thorny wire. We lived him. We know the silence of the metal doors, the weight of the pen, the weight of the pen and a world away. Without the trial, we know what it means without judgment, irresponsible, without charging.
Now the same system that steals years from our lives is expanded to be sent to a place where people who want the same system, immigrants and safety will be sent to a place outside their rights. Guantanamo just does not allow abuse; Provides oppressiveness. This executive procedure only does not allow injustice; Guarantee this.
The arrest of migrants in Guantanamo has given them the same legal limbo, rejecting the constitutional protectors. This deliberate uncertainty allows us to abuse, as with us. We know in advance when a system is prepared to break people. This is not about security; This is to make the power, control and use of Guantanamo’s darkness.
This decision is a direct result of the impunity for the United States to enjoy the crimes committed by the United States. This Close Breaking with prison and calculation legacy did not allow these injustices, but now it allowed them to expand. Guantanamo had to close long ago; Instead, it is revived for new victims.
We refuse to remain silent. We refuse to allow others to be absorbed by the same nightmare. No one deserves to be thrown into a system built to wipe them. We will not stop talking. We will not stop fighting. We will not allow Guantanamo’s horrors to be repeated.
Close Guantanamo. Ended in an endless period. Stop this command.
We are only the survivors of Guantanamo. Witnessed. And we will not let the world forget.
