In Februrary 2002, one month after the first detainees arrived at Guantánamo, CCR filed the first challenge to the Bush administration's attempt to create an offshore penal colony outside the rule of law.

We won in the Supreme Court in 2004, continue to represent the detainees in more than 200 cases in the courts, and coordinate a legal network comprised of hundreds of attorneys.

However, the Bush administration has twice ignored the Supreme Court, and continues to hold these men outside of the law.

Since its opening Guantánamo was clearly illegal. Now, in 2007, Guantánamo has become an intelligence and national security failure, a moral stain on our nation, and a corrupt symbol that cannot continue.

FACES OF GUANTANAMO-
(download pdf)

Faces of Guantánamo highlights the cases of nearly thirty men who have been held in Guantánamo for nearly five years-despite significant evidence that they are innocent of any wrongdoing.

Among the men profiled are:

Adel Hassan Hamad, a Sudanese relief worker, whose detention was described as "unconscionable" by a military official at his Combatant Status Review Tribunal (CSRT);

Haji Bismullah, an Afghan who fought against the Taliban and served as a provincial government official during the transitional Afghan government;

Haji Nusrat, an eighty year old Afghan, arrested and transferred to Guantánamo after he protested his son's arrest.
