Where on the web can you find bearded ladies, parachuting mermaids
and pirates riding dolphins? On Amnestys virtual journey to Guantánamo Bay!
Two weeks ago we launched an animated on-line petition asking for people
to join our flotilla travelling all the way to Guantánamo to denounce
injustice. Thousands have already joined us.
If you still have not joined the protest, why not do it now? By doing this,
you will put pressure on the US authorities to close Guantánamo and end
injustice there.
It only takes a minute and, besides, it is a lot of fun. Have you always
wanted a beard but were afraid to grow one? Now's your chance! And you can also
look for friends and check how they have designed their outfits, styled their
hair and chosen their mode of transport.
We would like to ask you to forward the link
http://www.amnesty.org/guantanamoflotilla - to as many friends, colleagues and
relatives as you can and ask them to sign up to the campaign as well.
You can also link to the flotilla from your website or blog. Find banners and
buttons here: Come on; let's give it a go!
The campaign is gathering momentum and is creating quite a splash. Now we
need your help to pass on the message.
Can we count on you to keep up the momentum and ensure we get this awful
detention site closed for good? Together we can make it possible!
Thanks, everyone!

16 December 2006 marked the start of a month of activism to close the US
detention centre in Guantánamo Bay. 11 January 2007 marked the fifth
anniversary of the camp.
Activists around the world joined together to demand once more, and louder than
ever, that the US government Close Guantánamo once and for all.
