End the Mass Hunger Strike--Close Guatanamo, Fair Trial for Prisoners

Imprisonment without trial violates U.S. and International Law. Guatanamo prisoners have been tortured and treated in an inhumane manner. Guatanamo prisoners deserve to be transferred to a U.S. facility tried for their crimes, rather than being held indefinitely without trial. Please end the Hunger Strike and close Guatanamo forever.

Why is this important?

Guatanamo prisoners are being held indefinitely without trial. One hundred men (nearly 2/3 of the entire population) are silently starving themselves to death in protest at this very moment. Lawyers and human rights groups say it is just a matter of time before the detainees start to die.
