Ramaadhan Mubaraak....GuantanamoCuba-justice racistAmericano
under the ground..I didn’t – and couldn’t – know when Ramadan started, as I had no way
to estimate the time of day...tried to do a long nightly tarawih prayer, the guards
didn’t let us.
They told us we were allowed to pray only five times a day and could not pray collectively.
Interrogations doubled during that Ramadan to intimidate.. always prayed for freedom
and justice, for everyone in the world who was unjustly imprisoned and oppressed.
Finally the Greatest USA President ever, Baraka Hussein Obama CHANGE..
..Obama administration improve living conditions, failed to close Guantanamo, America’s black hole.
..best Ramadans..it was August 11, 2010.
We had better food, refrigerators and microwaves, and families and lawyers sent us spices and sweets.
We didn’t realize it was Ramadan until the Muslim chaplain came and told us.
We weren’t supposed to know the time and date, as it was a “matter of camp security and safety”.
“Ramadan Kareem, Ramadan Mubarak”
During Ramadan in 2011, there was a Muslim USA Navy guard who would always pray and fast with us.

apologised for any role .. in the abuses he suffered as an inmate at Guantanamo Bay.
