Husaifa Parhat imprisoned at Guantanamo for 6 years because ... ?

  • Parhat had nothing to do with the attacks of 9/11.
  • Parhat did not participate in, plan, or even support, any hostile action against the United States or its allies.
  • Parhat is not part of any nation or organization that "planned, authorized, committed, or aided" those attacks.
  • Parhat is not a member of al Qaeda or of the Taliban.
  • The Pentagon’s Combatant Status Review Tribunal (CSRT) did not identify him to be "an individual who was part of or supporting Taliban or al Qaida forces."
  • The CSRT expressly found that he did not engage in hostilities against the United States or the Northern Alliance (an Afghani coalition partner of the United States).
Inspite of that George Bush and the US Military has imprisoned Huzaifa Parhat at Guantanamo for more than six years. Just because he [George Bush] can ... ? Just because the US Congress refuses to do its job? Just because most people in the US don't even seem to care what their government is doing in their name? Just because ... ?
