By Andy Worthington, UJanuwari 15, 2023
Ndibhale inqaku elilandelayo ukulungiselela “Vala iGuantánamo” Iwebhusayithi, endayisungula ngoJanuwari 2012, ngomhla we-10 wokuvulwa kweGuantánamo, kunye negqwetha lase-US uTom Wilner. Nceda usijoyine - idilesi ye-imeyile kuphela iyafuneka ukuba ibalwe phakathi kwabo bachasayo ubukho obuqhubekayo beGuantánamo, kunye nokufumana uhlaziyo lwemisebenzi yethu nge-imeyile.
NgoJanuwari 11, isikhumbuzo seminyaka engama-21 yokuvulwa kwentolongo yaseGuantánamo Bay, amaqela alwela amalungelo angaphezu kwe-150, kuquka Isiko soLungelo loMgaqo-siseko, i Iziko laBantu abaXhatshaziweyo, i ACLU, kunye namaqela anxulumene ngokusondeleyo ne-Guantánamo activism kwiminyaka edlulileyo - Vala iGuantánamo, INgqina Elijongene Nokuhlushwa, kwaye i Ihlabathi alikwazi ukulinda, umzekelo - wathumela ileta kuMongameli Biden embongoza ukuba ekugqibeleni aphelise intswela-bulungisa enyantisayo yentolongo ngokuyivala kube kanye.
Ndivuyiswa kukuba le leta ubuncinane yatsala umdla omfutshane weendaba - ukusuka Intando yeninzi Ngoku! kwaye Ukuthintela, umzekelo - kodwa ndiyathandabuza ukuba nayiphi na imibutho echaphazelekayo ikholelwa ngokunyanisekileyo ukuba uMongameli u-Biden kunye nolawulo lwakhe baya kufumana ngokukhawuleza ukuba isazela sabo sokuziphatha siye savuswa yileta.
Into efunekayo kulawulo lwe-Biden kukusebenza nzima kunye nediplomacy, ngakumbi ukukhusela inkululeko yamadoda angama-20 asele evunyiwe ukuba akhululwe, kodwa asanxunguphele eGuantánamo ngokungathi akazange amkelwe ukuba akhululwe okokuqala. indawo, ngenxa yokuba imvume yabo yokukhululwa yeza kuphela ngokuphononongwa kolawulo, olungenalo ubunzima obusemthethweni, kwaye akukho nto, ngokubonakalayo, inokunyanzela ulawulo ukuba lunqobe inertia yabo, kunye nokwenza ngokuhloniphekileyo ukukhusela ukukhululwa ngokukhawuleza kwala madoda.
Njengoko bendichazile isithuba kwisikhumbuzo, ebhekiswe kuMongameli uBiden kunye noNobhala weLizwe, u-Antony Blinken:
“Esi sisikhumbuzo esilihlazo ngokwenene, izizathu ezinokuthi zibekwe ngokuthe ngqo ezinyaweni zakho. Amadoda angama-20 kwangama-35 asabanjwe avunyiwe ukuba akhululwe, ukanti asaqhubeka ephila kwindawo engaxolelekiyo, engekabinalo nofifi lokuba aya kuze akhululwe nini na.
"Nina, manene, kufuneka nithathe inxaxheba ekuncedeni unozakuzaku uTina Kaidanow, oqeshwe kwihlobo elidlulileyo ukuba ajongane nokuhlaliswa kwabantu baseGuantánamo kwiSebe likaRhulumente, ukwenza umsebenzi wakhe, ukulungiselela ukubuyiselwa kwamadoda anokuthunyelwa ekhaya, nokusebenza. kunye noorhulumente bamanye amazwe ukuba bathathe loo madoda angenako ukubuyiselwa ekhaya ngokukhuselekileyo, okanye ukubuyiswa kwawo kuthintelwe ngezithintelo ezibekwe minyaka le ngabaqulunqi bomthetho baseRiphabhlikhi kuMthetho wokuGunyanyiswa koKhuseleko lweSizwe.
"Ungumnikazi weGuantánamo ngoku, kwaye uvumela amadoda ukuba akhululwe kodwa ungawakhululi, kuba kufuna umsebenzi onzima kunye nediplomacy, kukhohlakele kwaye akwamkelekanga."
Ileta ingezantsi, kwaye unokuyifumana kwiiwebhusayithi ze Isiko soLungelo loMgaqo-siseko kwaye i Iziko laBantu abaXhatshaziweyo.
Ileta eya kuMongameli uBiden ibongoza ukuvalwa kweGuantánamo
January 11, 2023
Umongameli uJoseph Biden
INdlu yeNdlu
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW
Washington, DC 20500
Mongameli othandekayo Biden:
Siliqela elahlukeneyo lemibutho engekho phantsi kukarhulumente esebenza, e-United States nakwamanye amazwe, kwimiba equka amalungelo oluntu ngamazwe, amalungelo abaphambukeli, ubulungisa bobuhlanga, kunye nokulwa ucalucalulo oluchasene namaMuslim. Sibhalela ukukubongoza ukuba ubeke phambili ukuvala indawo yokuvalelwa eGuantánamo Bay, eCuba, kwaye kupheliswe ukuvalelwa emkhosini okungapheliyo.
Phakathi koluhlu olubanzi lokunyhashwa kwamalungelo oluntu olwenziwa kuluntu ikakhulu lwamaSilamsi kule minyaka ingamashumi amabini idlulileyo, indawo yokuvalelwa yaseGuantánamo - eyakhiwe kwisiseko esifanayo somkhosi apho iUnited States ivalele ngokungekho mthethweni iimbacu zaseHaiti kwiimeko ezimanyumnyezi ekuqaleni kweminyaka yoo-1990 - ngumzekelo obalaseleyo. yokulahlwa kolawulo lomthetho.
Iziko lokuvalelwa laseGuantánamo laliyilelwe ngokukodwa ukubaleka imiqobo yezomthetho, kwaye amagosa olawulo lukaBush afukamisa intuthumbo apho.
Phantse amakhulu asibhozo amadoda kunye namakhwenkwe angamaSilamsi ayebanjwe eGuantánamo emva kuka-2002, bonke ngaphandle kwesandla ngaphandle kwentlawulo okanye ityala. Amashumi amathathu anesihlanu asele elapho namhlanje, ngexabiso leenkwenkwezi ezingama-540 ezigidi zeedola ngonyaka, nto leyo eyenza iGuantánamo ibe lelona ziko lokuvalelwa libiza kakhulu emhlabeni. I-Guantánamo iquka into yokuba urhulumente wase-United States uye wajonga uluntu lwemibala - abemi kunye nabangengabo abemi - njengesongelo lokhuseleko, kwimiphumo emibi.
Oku akuyongxaki yexesha elidlulileyo. IGuantánamo iyaqhubeka nokubangela umonakalo okhulayo kunye nonzulu kubantu abadala kunye namadoda agula kakhulu asavalelwe apho ngokungenasiphelo, uninzi ngaphandle kwentlawulo kwaye akukho namnye ofumene ityala elifanelekileyo. Kwakhona iye yatshabalalisa iintsapho zabo noluntu. Indlela engumzekelo kaGuantánamo iyaqhubeka nokuphembelela kwaye ithethelela uburhalarhume, ukucinga ngokungqongqo, kunye nokubekwa ibala. I-Guantánamo ibethelela ucalucalulo ngokobuhlanga ngokubanzi, kunye nemingcipheko eququzelela ukunyhashwa kwamalungelo okongeziweyo.
Selide ixesha elidlulileyo lokutshintsha kolwandle kwindlela yase-United States kukhuseleko lwesizwe kunye noluntu, kunye nokubala okunentsingiselo kunye nomonakalo opheleleyo owenziwe yi-post-9/11. Ukuvala indawo yogcino lwaseGuantánamo, ukuphelisa ukuvalelwa kwabantu emkhosini ngokungenasiphelo kwabo babanjwe apho, kwaye ungaze uphinde usebenzise isiseko somkhosi ngokuvalelwa kwabantu abaninzi ngokungekho mthethweni kulo naliphi na iqela labantu ngamanyathelo ayimfuneko ukuya kwezo ziphelo. Siyakubongoza ukuba wenze ngaphandle kokulibazisa, kwaye ngendlela enobulungisa eqwalasela umonakalo owenziwe kumadoda avalelwe ngokungenammiselo ngaphandle kwentlawulo okanye amatyala anobulungisa iminyaka engamashumi amabini.
