14 Saudis Released from Guantanamo
14 Saudi detainees at Guantanamo have been returned to Saudi Arabia. Of them, one was declared by the U.S. not to be an enemy combatent.
The releases bring to 310 the number of detainees who have departed Guantanamo to other governments, including Albania, Afghanistan, Australia, Bahrain, Belgium, Denmark, France, Great Britain, Kuwait, Morocco, Pakistan, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Spain, Sweden and Uganda.
About 450 detainees remain at Guantanamo, including 120 who are considered eligible for transfer or release. Decisions in those cases depend on discussions between the United States and other nations.
The Road to Guantanamo is showing in several cities now. It really is an important film to see. Details are here.
