Please support my work! For over five years, I have been researching and writing about Guantánamo and the 779 men (and boys) held there over the last nine and a half years, first through my book The Guantánamo Files, and, since May 2007, as a full-time independent investigative journalist. For nearly three years, I focused […]

Please support my work! Since I began my quest to discover the stories of the Guantánamo prisoners, and to bring those stories to the world, which I first embarked upon over five years ago, I have endeavoured to make that information as accessible as possible. A major step in achieving this took place in March […]

Please support my work! It’s Day 3 of my quarterly fundraising appeal, in which I take a short break from pounding my typepad into submission with despair at Obama’s cowardice, disdain for US lawmakers and the right-wing judges of the D.C.

Please support my work! Yesterday, I published a fundraising appeal (as I do every three months), asking my readers and supporters to help me raise $1500 to fund the maintenance and technical support of my website, and also to cover the otherwise unpaid hours I spend writing the many articles that are published exclusively here, […]

Please support my work! For five years, I have been researching and writing about Guantánamo and the 779 men (and boys) held there over the last nine years, first through my book The Guantánamo Files, which tells the story of the prison and around 450 of the prisoners, and then through 12 online chapters, which […]

Please support my work! Regular readers will know that, every three months, I ask for financial support to help me continue the work I began five years ago — researching the stories of the Guantánamo prisoners, publicizing the ongoing plight of the men still held, and reporting assiduously on stories relating to Guantánamo and the […]

Please support my work! On Monday I marked a milestone that, when I began blogging on a full-time basis in May 2007, I had no idea I would ever reach. My article about the forthcoming anti-torture week in Berkeley, California, from October 10 to 16, which I am proud to be attending, was my 1000th […]

Please support my work! Every three months, I ask my readers and supporters to help me continue my long-standing project, which I began in the spring of 2006: to chronicle the crimes committed in the “War on Terror,” to tell the stories of the prisoners, and to call for accountability for those who instigated torture […]
