Free Djamel Ameziane

Djamel Ameziane is an Algerian prisoner at Guantánamo, and one of the 86 men stlll held, out of 166 in total, who were cleared for release in 2009 by an interagency Guantánamo Review Task Force appointed by President Obama. Many of these men were previously cleared for release by military review boards under President Bush, some as long ago as 2004. They are still held because of cowardice on the part of the Obama administration, cynical obstruction in Congress and the appeals court dealing with the prisoners' habeas corpus cases, and indifference in the Supreme Court, and, largely, in the media and amongst the American people. Djamel is represented by lawyers at the Center for Constitutional Rights.
