A Fundraising Appeal – Please Support My Work!

The Guantanamo Files

Please support my work!


Three months ago, I held a fundraising appeal for the first time to raise money to enable me to carry on investigating and writing about Guantánamo and other issues related to the Bush administration’s “War on Terror.” At the time, I promised that I would only put out a fundraising appeal every three months, but three months have now passed and, as a result, I’m asking those who appreciate my work to help me continue. US readers — or readers anywhere else in the world — can use the “Donate” button, which leads to a PayPal page, at the top of this post. If you’re in the UK and want to help, another option is to send me a cheque (address here — scroll down to the bottom of the page).

Regular readers will know that I have now been researching and writing about Guantánamo for four years, first through my book The Guantánamo Files, and, since May 2007, in the nearly 600 blog posts I have written about Guantánamo and related issues, most of which are original, full-length articles published here, or for a variety of other publications and websites.

Regular readers will also know that I have covered the stories of the released prisoners, the Military Commissions and the habeas corpus hearings in more detail than is available elsewhere (as well as reporting on Britain’s under-reported anti-terror laws), and also that I have regularly come up with exclusive stories.

When I put out my last appeal, I had, in the previous few months, put together a definitive Guantánamo prisoner list, reported exclusively on the death of the CIA’s most notorious “ghost prisoner,” Ibn al-Shaykh al-Libi, and had also recently published a unique report on hunger strikes and weight loss in Guantánamo. In the last few months I have endeavored to match this output, reporting exclusively on the “extraordinary rendition” and torture of Ibn al-Shaykh al-Libi and plans to transfer Tunisian prisoners in Guantánamo to an Italian jail, picking up on a recent story about Spanish Judge Galtasar Garzón’s continuing intention to prosecute Bush administration lawyers for implementing torture, conducting an interview with Col. Lawrence Wilkerson, Colin Powell’s former Chief of Staff, which has been attracting significant attention in the past week, and, on Monday, reporting exclusively on a story buried in a New York Times report about the Obama administration’s plans to introduce tribunals for prisoners held at Bagram airbase in Afghanistan. In the report, officials seemed to confirm, for the first time, that prisoners seized outside Afghanistan and Iraq were currently being “rendered” to Bagram, now that the CIA has closed its secret prisons. I also wrote a follow-up article here, asking if this was why the administration was so determined to prevent US courts from having access to foreign prisoners in Bagram).

It would be deceitful of me to claim that I do not receive any compensation for the work that I do. A number of organizations I write for help to support me financially, but the majority of the work that I do is unpaid, so any contribution will be gratefully received. As anyone who has been paying attention will realize, a considerable amount of work remains to be done to call Bush administration officials to account for their crimes, to roll back the lawlessness of the last eight years, and to maintain pressure on the Obama administration, and I hope to continue uncovering and reporting on aspects of these stories that need to be brought out into the light.

Thank you again for your time and support.

    I just received the following message from Ana Maria, a friend of the campaigner Eleanor Boyd:

    Hi Andy,
    I am a friend of Eleanor’s, originally from the UK, but currently living between Mexico and California.
    I have been following the events of Guantanamo for more than seven years when I first found out about it through Amnesty International.
    I am so disgusted and sad for all these poor people, and am a great fan of anyone who dares to speak up. Another favourite of mine is Dahr Jamail.
    In fact, when I first learned of the atrocities the US government was perpetrating on these people … in Iraq, I was physically affected, and also went into a year depression because I had so much rage and sadness for these people.
    Anyway, enough … You are a truthbearer and light to this world. Don’t ever stop!!!

  10. Will Shirley says...

    Hey Andy, just donated thru paypal, it isn’t much, but we don’t have much. I think it’s too important to have you out there writing and being interviewed for us to hold off. I’ll buy less beer. Hey if you know anybody into ceramic sculpture or nature photography I can happily point you to an artist (me) who would be willing to send you a finders fee for a sale or commission. I mentioned this to Al Franken but he hasn’t taken me up on it. Seriously, I have a lot of artwork that’s quite good but I am a lousy salesman. Check it out here if you have a moment: http://www.picasaweb.google.com/fredbrighton and the name there happens to be the name of my old dead cat who’s name shall live in infamy. Anyway if you can use my skills to raise money to support your effort, please contact me. This ball must continue to roll!

    Thanks, Will. It’s much appreciated.
    OK, folks, check out Will’s sculpture and photos …
