Detectives appeal for witnesses after Mohammed Saleem, 75, was stabbed to death as he returned home from local mosque

What is the world coming to?

Hunger strikers, forced feeding torture, and 86 men cleared for release but imprisoned in horrific limbo. This week it ends with us. Sign now:

In 24 hours, President Obama could finally move to close Guantanamo — the most notorious prison camp on earth. 

With inmates on a 100-day hunger strike and massive calls for Obama to act, our president has been pushed to respond with a major speech about the prison. If enough of us demand a plan — he could free the prisoners already cleared for release, and appoint a White House official with one mission: close Guantanamo down! 

We’re at a tipping point. Sign up to demand Obama close this shameful gulag down, and share the shocking facts below so others join this urgent call:

• Detainees in Guantanamo now: 166
• Detainees facing active charges: 6
• Detainees cleared for immediate release, but stuck in the camp: 86
• Guantanamo inmates on hunger strike: 103
• Hunger strikers strapped down and force fed: 30
•  Prisoners who have died in custody: 9
• Children the US has held at Guantanamo: 21
• Detainees tried in civilian court: 1
•  ”Unreleasable” detainees who can’t be tried for lack of evidence or torture:50
• Prisoners released by the Bush administration: 500+
• Prisoners released by the Obama administration: 72
• Current annual cost to US taxpayers: $150 million
• Days since Obama first pledged to close Gitmo: 1579
• Time since first prisoners arrived at Guantanamo:

11 years, 4 months, 11 days … 

Dear Supporters,

We are excited to announce our first fundraising event in which we will be walking 7 miles for Al-Nimr and the political prisoners in Saudi Arabia.

Support Najaf, Farshad and Hasnain on their 7 mile walk from the Shia Ithna’asheri Community of Middlesex in London to al-Zahra Centre in Watford. This is to raise money towards our all important work for the freedom of Sheikh Al-Nimr and political prisoners in Saudi Arabia.

We urge everyone to sponsor us with whatever you deem feasible and appropriate, nothing is too little ! Your donations can help us help these victims who have been victimised for no other reason except that they demand human rights and reform. Please forward and share this wherever possible. NO to oppression….NO to injustice and NO to sectarianism!

How is this site even worth a billion? Does it even generate revenue? I don’t see ads, they don’t sell anything… maybe yahoo is planning on setting up ads on this site.
