The Canadian government's war effort in Afghanistan has been shaken by new accusations that Afghans detained by Canadian forces were tortured and abused. The charges were made by Richard Colvin, a highly placed diplomat in the Canadian embassy in Kabul during 2005-07, the years when Canada escalated its military role in Afghanistan.

Amid the growing media fever over a possible prisoner swap involving the release of Gilad Shalit, the Israeli soldier held by Hamas, another young captive has a less visible public profile – but personifies Israel’s chokehold on Palestinian self-expression.

Benamar Benatta: Another Detainee Canadians Transferred to Torture
Sumud | 11/24/2009 - 05:37
Take Action to Demand a Public Inquiry into Canada's First 9/11 Rendition to Torture
While headlines rightfully scream about the scandal of Canadian troops transferring Afghan detainees to torture, an Algerian refugee here in Canada continues waging a lonely struggle to determine why Canadian officials decided to illegally render him to the United States on September 12, 2001 with the false, dangerously inflammatory accusation that as a Muslim who knew about airplanes, he was connected to 9/11. The resultant five years of indefinite detention in the U.S. under conditions that the United Nations declared constituted torture continue to haunt
Mr. Benatta, who was eventually returned to Canada where his refugee claim was accepted (adding further concerns that a person in need of protection was so callously thrown back to the U.S., from whence he could have been deported to his death in Algeria).

Justice for Migrant Workers!
Join Coalition for Change and our allies.
* Organize actions in your community!
* Make it loud and clear to Immigration Minister Jason Kenney that we won't let immigrants be turned into a disposable workforce with no rights!
* Demand real protections for migrant workers!
Regulations introduced on October 9, 2009 essentially deny the right of full status to temporary migrant workers by restricting them to working four years in Canada and barring them from returning to the country for six years.
The regulations come in to force on December 9, 2009. Unless we stop them!

The Prison as University: The Palestinian Prisoners' Movement and National Education
Sumud | 11/18/2009 - 04:38
Khaled al-Azraq, a political prisoner for the past twenty years, tells us how the Palestinian prisoners' movement has educated its cadre. Originally published in al-Majdal (
issue #42, Autumn 2009)
Let me start by saying that the role of the Palestinian prisoners' movement in educating its cadre, and thereby contributing to Palestinian “national education” is a large topic, and one worthy of much more discussion and research. As a Palestinian political prisoner who has spent the past twenty years in Israeli jails I would like to highlight some of the general characteristics of the prisoners' movement's struggle to build a system of self and collective education as a central part of developing a patriotic and revolutionary culture that can be a pillar of the liberation movement.

PROTEST THE DAY OF THE RE-SENTENCING OF THE CUBAN 5!
Sumud | 11/11/2009 - 07:39
On June 15th, The U.S. Supreme Court refused to review the case of Gerardo, Ramón, Antonio, Fernando and René, known as the Cuban 5. Yet another insult on the part of Made in USA-justice. Despite the worldwide clamor in favor of the freedom of the five Cuban anti-terrorist fighters, this country’s highest judicial body turned a “deaf ear” and thus the Cuban 5 remain U.S. held Political Prisoners! Last year, a federal appeals court ordered new sentences for Fernando Gonzalez, Ramon Labañino, and Antonio Guerrero. Labañino and Guerrero had been serving life terms, and Gonzalez was sentenced to 19 years.
